Trump on Andrew Jackson's victory:

"He reclaimed the people's government from an emerging Aristocracy. Jackson's victory shook the establishment like an earthquake. Secretary of State for the defeated President John Quincy called Jackson's victory 'mortifying and sickening.' Oh boy that does that sound familiar... The political class in Washington had good reason to fear Jackson's great triumph.. 'The rich and powerful' Jackson said, 'Too often bend the acts of government to their selfish purposes.' Jackson warned they had turned government into an engine of support for the few at the expense of many.

Andrew Jackson was the people's President."

Remind you of anyone?
