​High School Textbook Claims Trump Is Mentally Unstable And Supporters Are Racist

     An anti-Trump high school textbook titled "By The People" has faced a massive backlash for a clear bias against President Donald Trump. The textbook questions Trump's "mental instability" and claims Trump supporters are racist.

     "Clinton’s supporters feared that the election had been determined by people who were afraid of a rapidly developing ethnic diversity of the country … They also worried about the mental instability of the president-elect and the anger that he and his supporters brought the nation," the book reads.

​      The book is set to be published for Advanced Placement honor students. 

     "This work is designed to convey college-level information to high school students and meet specific Advanced Placement standards. It aims to promote debate and critical thinking by presenting multiple sides of historical issues and offering a broad survey of arguments from the 2016 presidential election and other recent topics," a spokesperson for Pearson said in a statement.

​     "We have reviewed the passages in question independently and in the context of the rest of the book. This review has confirmed that the text offers a broad view of critical arguments from both sides of the 2016 presidential election," the spokesperson added.
