Small children dying sweeping chimneys and literal rivers of shit. Is that what they mean when they say they’re making things great again?

They usually intentionally forget the past's bad parts, hence the "return to a mythical past". My great-grandfather didn't had 8-10 siblings bcause his parents wanted to outbreed the Roma (European People of Color), but because many didn't live until childhood. In fact, he's a single one, who lived to adulthood.
