Fun Fact: the Panic of 1837 was caused by Andrew Jackson's idiotic idea to pay off the national debt by stealing land and selling it, which crashed the real estate market. Jackson had also refused to continue the American central banking charter so there were basically no tools to fight it.

He is literally Trump's favorite president. You know, the real estate guy fighting with the Fed.
