These 7 executive actions show how Trump wants to reshape American historytoggle caption Kevin Dietsch/Getty ImagesPresident Trump issued a record number of executive actions in his first months in office, enacting sweeping changes in how the federal government works — and signaling his intentions to reshape how the country's stories are told. Critics worry that the executive actions taken together, for instance, would minimize or even erase achievements by women and minorities. The Organization of American Historians says that under the Trump administration, institutions such as museums and historic parks are now "under assault." Trump's allies defend his executive actions, saying they're meant to correct what conservatives see as attempts to skew history. "President Trump is ensuring that we are celebrating true American history and ingenuity instead of corrupting it in the name of left-wing ideology."
