If this doesn't speak to a special kind of ignorance of what has happened since the Civil War and what has happened in regard to the demographics of the Republican and Democratic party over the last 160 years then nothing does.

You are a special kind of stupid!

Welcome back troll.

Speak for yourself. The Democratic and Republican Parties in the later 20th century, and 21st century are not the same parties they were in 1866. Sardines alluded to your ignorance of facts, why did you ignore the later histories of our two major political parties? Because it undermined 100% what you were trying to claim: that Republicans cared more for doing right by former black slaves than Democrats did. Well, eventually conservative racism won out with the Republican Party, that too is part of the party’s history.

Southern strategy - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org

The phrase "Southern strategy" refers primarily to "top down" narratives of the political realignment of the South which suggest that Republican leaders consciously appealed to many white Southerners' racial grievances to gain their support. This top-down narrative of the Southern Strategy is generally believed to be the primary force that transformed Southern politics following the civil rights era. The scholarly consensus is that racial conservatism was critical in the post–Civil Rights Act realignment of the Republican and Democratic parties,though several aspects of this view have been debated by historians and political scientists.

The perception that the Republican Party had served as the "vehicle of white supremacy in the South", particularly during the Goldwater campaign and the presidential elections of 1968 and 1972, made it difficult for the Republican Party to win back the support of black voters in the South in later years. In 2005, Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman formally apologized to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) for exploiting racial polarization to win elections and for ignoring the black vote.

Theater of the Absurd. That’s the United States in 2025. The entirety of MAGA is an edifice built on sand, every criticism of their own country based on falsehoods. Trying to think of movements in history that have been so over the top nuts? I can’t at the moment.


Trump, GOP portray cities as chaotic dystopias in need of occupation​


(Say what?!?): When President Donald Trump declared his third presidential candidacy in 2022, he saved his most colorful language for America’s urban areas, bemoaning “the blood-soaked streets of our once-great cities” and adding that “the cities are rotting, and they are indeed cesspools of blood.”

Later in his campaign, Trump called Milwaukee “horrible” and describedWashington, D.C., as a “rat-infested, graffiti-infested ********.” More recently he said, “These cities, it’s like living in hell.”

Other Republicans have seized on similar dystopian urban images. When Vice President JD Vance visited New York several years ago, he compared the city to a zombie apocalypse, posting: “I have heard it’s violent and disgusting there. But is it like Walking Dead Season 1 or Season 4?”

As Trump ramps up the military presence in Washington — and hints that he may move to take over other cities — his crackdown punctuates a frequent Republican message that American cities embody chaos, lawlessness and immorality, despite widespread recent drops in violent crime. With cities increasingly liberal and rural stretches ever more conservative, Republicans have a growing incentive to attack urban areas as the epitome of all that is wrong with America.

Brett Smiley, mayor of Providence, Rhode Island, said many of his fellow mayors are worried their town could be next. Most cities would eagerly accept federal help, he said, but it should come in consultation with local leaders, not imposed by force.

“I know my colleagues around the country are very concerned this could happen to our cities,” said Smiley, who co-chairs the Mayors and Police Chiefs Task Force of the U.S. Conference of Mayors. “There are lots of ways the federal government could make cities safer, but this is not one of them.”

Conservatives contend that any resentment of cities comes after decades of condescension from the urban elite, who depict rural Americans as unsophisticated, racist and politically backward. Trump has signaled his onslaught will continue, recently naming Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Baltimore and Oakland as additional places that might require intervention.

“This will go further,” he promised.

He cries daily about election fraud. But, he also wants Tina Peters freed from a Colorado prison. Not the first time he made this demand. If you assumed Trump was serious about election fraud, you’re either very naive, or you’ve been living under a rock, or perhaps you are a supporter of Donald Trump. At any rate, he cannot pardon her, she was convicted on state charges.






In 2021, Peters facilitated unauthorized access to her county's voting systems, seeking to uncover evidence of alleged election fraud. This breach led to sensitive election data being leaked online.

She had allowed a county security card to be misused, granting access to the Mesa County election system to an individual connected to MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, another prominent figure in the election denial movement.

Peters was found guilty of seven of 10 charges at a 2024 trial: Three counts of attempting to influence a public official, conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, official misconduct, violation of duty, and failure to comply with an order by the secretary of state.

The jury acquitted her on three other charges: Conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, criminal impersonation, and identity theft.

Peters was sentenced to nine years in prison, making her the first election official in the U.S. convicted of criminal charges related to efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
