@giesyw Yes, these "Southern Democrats," as they were called before and just after the Civil War, were the slave owners. They ran plantations, and urged violence to maintain their livelihood, even to the point of civil war. When the Civil Rights Act was passed, the Dixiecrats (as they were known by then) left the Dems, furious that the Dems would allow integration, and give any rights to people that the Dixiecrats saw as less than human. So they left the Democrats. Where did they go? That's obvious: the only major party remaining. If that doesn't convince you, let's resort to logic. This racist cop is going to run as a Republican, not a Democrat. Why wouldn't he go to the Dems, if they were the truly racist party? Hate to tell ya, bud, but political parties change, especially over centuries. The party that freed the slaves is not the party of Trump.

@ahpoolup8559 And you're ignoring history. Not much else to say.

@ahpoolup8559 "Dixiecrat, also called States’ Rights Democrat, member of a right-wing Democratic splinter group in the 1948 U.S. presidential election organized by Southerners who objected to the civil rights program of the Democratic Party." https://www.britannica.com/topic/Dixiecrat Maybe you think the Encyclopedia Britannica has a liberal bias, or some other such nonsense, which makes you reject facts? Sorry, bud. But the dixiecrats were not "further left Democrats." The Republicans were not "against slavery" during Lincoln's presidency, if that's the time you're referring to. They had some people who were for it, some who were against it. What made the Dixiecrats go to the Republicans was the Dixiecrats felt so betrayed by the Democrats, because of the President's support of the Civil Rights Act, that they became Republicans.
