OuchI suppose Southern Conservative have more experience being mocked.
Did you get that from Daughter's of the Confederacy High School History book?
This coming from a Trump supporter. Precious!
You need to finish the story.
The Southern Democrats started to split from the Democratic Party over Hubert Humphrey's civil rights proposals. They formed a new party - the States' Rights Democratic Party (Dixiecrats). Over the years, many of them switched allegiances to the Republican Party and this was solidified under Nixon's "Southern Strategy." So, the Southern Democrats left the Democratic Party and joined the Republican Party when the Dems started to support civil rights. Republicans, especially under Nixon, were more than happy to court their racist views in order to garner votes.

Welcome to What about 50 years ago?The move of Southern states from solidly Democrat to solidly Republican began to take place. In that environment, the Dixiecrats and the “Southern Strategy" was born.
Their campaign slogan was “Segregation Forever!"
Meeting in Birmingham, Alabama, the Dixiecrats nominated South Carolina governor Strom Thurmond as their presidential candidate, and Mississippi governor Field J. Wright, as their vice-presidential nominee. The party platform represented the openly racist views of most white southerners of the time. It opposed abolition of the poll tax while endorsing segregation and the "racial integrity" of each race.

Welcome to the birth of the RINO.
Welcome to What about 50 years ago?
Which is a nice summary of Whatabout 50 years ago. Or are “Real Republicans” actually what we now call Democrats?No the conversation line began here:
Trump gives 2 hour speech at CPAC
However, truth is Democrats, not Republicans are the progenitors of all racial angst in America. They even came up with the "southern strategy" to infiltrate the republican party to make it more amiable towards segregation; creating what we now call RINO's.
The GOP still controls the Senate. You really need a game program.And if Nancy and Chuck had Trump dead to rights committing a felony there would be no hesitation.
You being wrong about the Southern Democrats, the Southern Strategy, and the modern Republican Party is not dependent on you support of Trump.---SE---
You being wrong about the Southern Democrats, the Southern Strategy, and the modern Republican Party is not dependent on you support of Trump.
The Democrats were the early supporters of racism but this changes decades ago when the Dixiecrats jumped ship and joined the Republicans. The Southern Strategy was orchestrated by the Nixon campaign, not the Dems.
Of course you do. I support Trump, everything I say must be wrong.

PBS says nothing about the Southern Strategy being a ploy by the Democrats to infiltrate the Republican Party.What I quoted here is from PBS, and The Encyclopedia Britannica. Tell them they are in error. I didn't come up with it. Sources are cited.

There's nothing incorrect in that post. However, it only covers 1860 to the late 1870s. We're talking about a period of time 100 years later, which your post does not address.What I quoted here is from PBS, and The Encyclopedia Britannica. Tell them they are in error.

Except that the original post in that discussion specifically talked about the procession of Democrats -> Dixiecrats -> Republicans, which was then called a lie. That post was then (mockingly) referred to as a product of the "Daughters of the Confederacy history textbook," to which you made your reply about the Reconstruction period. So perhaps it might behoove you to follow your own advice.Thank you. That is because I was answering one person, not championing a cause.
If people would just click the links to follow the conversation instead of rebutting everything.

There was no republican party until the presidential election of 1860.
Actually the Republican party formed from the division of the Whigs over slavery in 1854.
Every link I've seen wouldn't be suitable here. This is likely to be the biggliest speech of the Trump era. Share your favorite (CF-freindly) bits.
As am I. 9/11 and so on.
Dont judge me for not wanting to understand truth
just because you don't understand my reasoning.
Let me get this straight... Cohen is the evidence? A known, and self admitted perjurer?
Yes. Paper trails. Documentation. Where's the money trail? And this is the point. When defendants turn evidence they provide actual working information or items. All we have is another accusation with no proof.
