Don't these Trump supporting alt-righters like Richard Spencer realize that Robert E Lee and Jefferson Davis were Democrats? Or do they just not care?
they're alt right...the alternative to the right...so they are left wingers, too
and remember, the parties switched in the 60s. So republicans are the super duper racists now
That's not true. Go listen "Weapon of A.S.S. Destruction" by Alfonzo Rachel. The "party switch" is not real.
but but but....muh worldview
this is what my completely centrist college professors told me to believe
"I'll have those niggers voting Democrat for the next two hundred years." -Lyndon B. Johnson
I'm confused by the party switching claim. Do people claim the they renamed or do the claim the people left an established democrat party to enter an established republican party and vice versa?
Yes. But it's not true. There's plenty of evidence to disprove this claim.
Like that quote I just posted.
That quote has never been verified.
It is true a few politicians switched parties, but not many. The voting pattern of the South does not follow what a platform switch would look like. And racism is the only issue that would have been the reason for the switch.
It wouldn't be out of character, but it still isn't a verifiable quote.
Yes to which one? That both parties were established and people just switched from one to the other? Again just trying to understand what the claim is not the legitimacy of the claim.
People view that the parties belief systems and members switched.
Yes people switched from one established party to the other
I think political juice did the best vid on it.
The only Democratic Senator who switched to the Republican Party was Strom Thurmond
And most of us Southerners (I'm from Texas BTW) didn't switch parties until the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s
Was Uncle Joe's quote verified?
You mean Robert Byrd?
Yeap
You can find that quote everywhere
BLM and ANTIFA are the new KKK
No, I meant Joe Biden
"They're gonna put y'all back in chains"
oh that quote.
I believe I'm not as familiar with it.
They're already back in chains
In the chains of welfare checks.
but but but...that's compassion. That's why the mean old racist republicans want to take it away
Thanks a lot LBJ.
and FDR
Plus, they're racist anyway...they're tearing families apart at the border (I actually had to argue this one earlier in the week)
Democrats are still the party of racism. They can never shut the hell up about the color of somebody's skin.
Also, Margaret Sanger wanted to exterminate the Negro population
and the Jews
and the Catholics
