In some ways, we're very lucky that Trump is so stupid, so crude and so obnoxious. Think of what more palatable psychopath might have gotten away with.

Apologies if this is well known - likely! - but there's an entire literature about this ... often referred to as The Great Forgetting.
Should anyone be interested, an online search with keywords "Great Forgetting Spanish Flu" returns a lot of eg google hits.

Note: As I point out in my piece, the demonstration DHS is referencing here was led by faith leaders — seven of whom were among the 21 arrested.
I asked some of those clergy what they thought about DHS’ statement.
This was their reply: religionnews.com/2025/11/15/a...

I remember when oil prices collapsed during covid. There was no way to sell the contracts because nobody wanted them, so random traders ended up with thousands of physical barrels of oil. It was so bad that people were paying to have them taken away, resulting in oil prices going negative.
