Show notes
Donald Trump says he's a believer in 'Race Horse Theory' - the old 1950s euphemism for eugenics - and it's not a one-off. We pull the supercut of Trump talking about 'good genes,' German blood, and winning bloodlines going back decades, and trace race horse theory straight to the eugenics movement that helped pave the way for Nazi Germany. Then we fact-check pseudo-historian David Barton's claims about founding fathers landing in debtors' prison over war debts and his rewrite of how long slavery actually lasted in America - both provably false, and we show you the receipts. We also break down self-proclaimed prophet Amanda Grace's numerology claim that Bad Bunny and Lady Gaga's names spell out a secret 2028 Democratic plot, watch Pawn Stars' Rick Harrison get asked whether the new Trump commemorative coin could ever rival the $30 million 1933 Double Eagle, and look at a pro-Trump Catholic group raising real money to put a giant cross on the moon. Every claim in this episode gets checked against the actual historical record, source by source. If you want to understand how religious and political operators twist history, science, and scripture to sell a story, this one has the paper trail.
