What the republican party stands for right now has a direct bearing on what you get to take credit for in the past. Right now they would not even vote to abolish slavery. If you have a problem with this characterization maybe you need to look for another party. Be a libertarian, you never have to defend anything because they never get elected.No past republican president would have a prayer of getting elected in the Trumpublican party. Why are you using them as an example? You hate Romney. You hate McCain. You don't even claim the Bushes. Face it. The Trumpublicans pissed on everything good, decent and fair and rejected everyone who wasn't Trump. He is your one and only example of what you stand for and there is precious little to be proud of.OK then look at it this way, do you think the hard right would ever support any legislation protecting the civil rights of minorities? Clearly they would not. They stand in the same political space as the dixiecrats in any current discussion on civil rights. In the fight against police brutality they not only stand with the police but the brutality as well.Everyone who came out in defense of the the various confederate memorials willingly inherited their legacy all the way down the line. That's the hard right, welcome to the confederate party.No
But BLM told me that all the white republicans who organized and executed the "railroad" were racist, and should have supported the democrats aka the confederacy....
No, we didn't. That was just people like you, making up shit.
Completely reasonable to celebrate the sacrifice and heroism of soldiers defending their homes, while not celebrating all the aspects of their government of the time.
Do you celebrate America's defeat of the nazis in wwii? Does that mean you celebrate the internment of japanese americans or the dropping of the atom bombs?
Dumbass.
I'm not sure what you mean by "hard right". Every Republican President since....the beginning of the Party has been in the forefront of increasing or equal rights for minorities since the party was founded.
Ike was. Nixon was. Reagan was. The Bushes. Trump;. Do you consider any of them "hard right"?
Anyone more to the right of them, had the choice of voting for them, voting for the lefties with the dems, or staying home.
You made a point about "protecting minority rights". I was trying to address it. All that shit about "trumplican party"? That was uncalled for nonsense.
ALL the republican presidents have protected minority rights. Does that address your question, or do you want to clarify who you are talking about.
Dude. You are raving. You threw out a pretty red meat accusation, and I gave you the respect of addressing it seriously and honestly, but you are just ignoring your own point to just throw more shit, like a monkey.
It seems that you point(s) are nothing but propaganda talking points, meant to just be thrown out that, to create negative spin, but with nothing to back it up, but more shit throwing.
