It was a remarkable moment Monday night at the Republican National Convention, surely creating some amount of confusion among longtime Republicans, when Sean O’Brien, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, delivered a stemwinder of a speech in prime time. He called former President Donald Trump a “tough S.O.B.”
Atwaters interview is not the golden bullet you think it is, nor have you been able to show when the parties switched, or even provide evidence that all the racists democrats switched parties. So far you’ve shown one guy saying that Republicans tried to court racists democrats.
Immigration policies directly effect the labor pool, Americans are paid less due to open borders.
The incontrovertible truth is that the white supremacists are Repub. We can look at which rallies have the Confederate flags, which Nazis rallies have the “good guys on both sides,” and which insurrections have the “Camp Auschwitz” hoodies. We can all see it. You are fooling nobody. The absolute truth is somewhere between the Emancipation Proclamation and now, most Repubs have switched from anti- to pro-Confederate.
You and I both know that the Southern Strategy occurred. You want to pretend it doesn’t. That is why you badgered until you could find one specific thing that you could deny with whatever outlandish claims you can think of. You want a year, month, and day so that you can smugly say, “nuh-uh, one Dem was racist beyond that point therefore it is wrong.”
Even then, the best you can come up with there is “that racism is actually libertarianism” about Goldwater and “nuh-uh, not true” about Atwater.
Why am I wasting my time interacting with a disingenuous bad faith liar? Look at where the racists are gathered. Read an actual article on Southern Strategy if you want to know why Repub voters and Repub leadership are majority racist.
Which Republican rallies had confederate flags?
You’re dumber than I though if you think Trump was talking about Nazis when he commented on the Lee statue protest.
If you’re looking for antisemitism the Democratic party is where to find it.
The southern stragity’s existence is not evidence that the parties switched. The racists democrats would would still need to switch parties, they did not.
You’re so afraid to provide a date that you’re trying to straw man an argument that I never made. Switching parties can’t be proven or not based on one person. It’s a group of people.
Goldwater objected to the government telling private buisness what to do, that’s still a libertarian policy and has nothing to do with race.
Your inability to articulate or defend your claim comes down to a lack of evidence. You argument has mostly been go look it up it will totally support my claim. It hasn’t which it why every piece of evidence you’ve provided has been worthless.
You haven’t been able to show any evidence of racists dem voters switching parties, I’ve shown their elected leaders kept representing their racists Democrat constituents.
