Why even try to deny it? Salem's witch panic is totally in line with US history. There was the vampire panic, the werewolf panic, the satan panic(s), the demon panic(s), and the toilet paper panic that happened as late as 2020. 
Americans go fucking insane on a regular basis. It's some sort of national catharsis.

He's probably confusing it for the european witch hunts of which there is a proposed theory that it was about counterfeit coins.
