Why Trump loves William McKinley and what it could mean for the country

McKinley lost his seat in Congress that same year. People blamed the unpopularity of tariffs for Republican President Benjamin Harrison's (also an Ohioan) defeat in 1892. Democrat

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's admiration for President William McKinley, highlighting how Trump's affinity for McKinley could influence his political strategies and economic policies. Trump has praised McKinley for his economic policies, particularly his role in promoting American industry through protective tariffs, which resonates with Trump's own "America First" economic nationalism. The piece explores how Trump might emulate McKinley's approach to trade, focusing on protecting domestic industries and workers, potentially leading to a resurgence of protectionist policies. It also touches on the historical context of McKinley's presidency, his assassination, and how his legacy might inspire Trump's vision for America, including themes of national greatness and economic self-sufficiency. However, the article also notes the differences in their political environments, suggesting that while Trump might draw inspiration from McKinley, the application of these historical lessons in today's globalized economy could have varied outcomes.
