How conservative whites (Democrats) who lost the civil war became today's Republicans

[Conservative from Georgia]

If you have not been living under a rock for the last several decades, you have seen that the modern electoral map looks like a civil war map (Losers of the civil war are today Republican voters, having switched since the 1800's, and winners of the civil war are now Democratic voters, having switched from being Republican in the 1800's).
Here's a great article about the topic:
“[That message] appeals not only to White Southerners, who are like, ‘Yeah, let’s bust heads,’ but also to suburban White Northerners,” says Hasan Kwame Jeffries, a history professor at The Ohio State University. Republicans increasingly embraced fiscal and social conservatism, and in the 1980s, President Ronald Reagan pushed for tougher sentencing standards for drug offenders and other nonviolent criminals, which disproportionately affected people of color and drove them further away from the GOP.

“By the early 1990s, the complete party shift had finally occurred,” Jeffries says: Republicans had become the conservatives, and Democrats the progressives."

The Republicans were the conservative party most of my life, at least from the 70s to the early 2000s. I have no idea what happened to them then. They drummed out or primaried out Conservatives that believed in the constitution, rule of law, seperate but equal branched of government and support for democracy and standing up to totalitarian, fascists expansionary governments on the world stage in support of our long term allies and international treaties. Now, strictly a populist movement, with little actual consistent values, except tax breaks, all at obedience to one who would be king, if allowed go control all three branches of government by executive order and masked troops, when he cannot us real troops. In other words, not conservative, but decidedly radical, prone to taking shortcuts, shortcutting the US Constitution, rule of law, with little to no accountability, until forced by the courts as the legislative branch and the Supreme Court pay homage to the executive. Not exactly what the framers had in mind.

Have ever listened to the Liberal Bigots?
They hate the Southerners.
Have ever seen how Southerners are portrayed in movies.
Of course they will not vote for people who hate them.

Thats true. Republicans are not conservatives. Fascists have hijacked the term.

Doofus, does this look like a civil war map?

Leftards are so full of shit, they never cease to amaze me.

This right here is called a Trump landslide. There's hardly a blue vote in the entire middle third of the country.

That's quite the load of revisionist bullshit.

 

[EMH]

The Democrat Party was never conservative. Slavery is not conservative, neither is segregation. What is conservative is


TREATING EVERYONE THE SAME


and the Democrat Party has never done that.


NONE of the LBJ supporters masquerading as "Republicans" today are conservatives. IQ<5 Pro Israel Christians are not conservatives.

This is what LBJ thought of them....

The IQ<5 Pro Israel Christian is 100% anti conservative, and the GOP should ignore it and let it decide if it wants to support a truly conservative GOP or go back home to the cesspool from which it originated, the Democrat Party.

 

[EMH]

Thats true. Republicans are not conservatives. Fascists have hijacked the term.

Zionist Fascists, the Zionist Jew, left wing, and its drone army of self proclaimed sub humans, the IQ<5 Pro Israel Christian, and that happened in the late 1990s, and America has gone off a cliff because the GOP ceased being conservative and patriotic to America, and became Zionist Fascist and loyal only to Israel.

Democrats only win in areas their harvesting mills and fraudsters operate.

If it wasn't for fraud and harvesting mills democrats wouldn't win anywhere.

An American voting for democrats is like a chicken voting for KFC.

Democrats = traitors

there is just too/so much contradiction and irony [not mention missing data] to unload that the links you would pretend to want would take far too long to retrieve, which is probably/obviously what you are counting on.
