Tell me more, where is this information on them being the party of slavery and the KKK.
Also while you may think calling them the "DemocRats" makes you sound clever or funny it doesn't, it's just childish.

LoL Mag
Don't think he appreciates the reality check your giving him.You come out with the most ridiculous comments. Do you just post the first nonsense that come to mind? Or are we still living in the past ? LoL

Time travel. It was true ~100 years ago. Very much so in a very extreme way.
One example comes to mind since I recently watched a short video on Theodore Roosevelt. In 1901, he invited Booker T. Washington to dinner. A social thing, come to my house and have a meal and a chat. But Theodore Roosevelt was the president and his house was also the seat of government, so it was also a political thing despite Roosevelt apparently not intending it to be. It was major national news by the morning, sent by telegraph all over the USA during the night and front page news on the early editions of numerous newspapers.
Democratic senator Benjamin Tillman's response to the news was to state, publically:
"The action of President Roosevelt in entertaining that [Magic Bad Word forbidden here] will necessitate our killing a thousand [Magic Bad Word forbidden here] in the South before they will learn their place again."
He was far from the only Democrat with those views. Bear in mind that he wasn't just a Democrat, he was a senior politician in that party, a senator. Who was re-elected afterwards.
Republican president Roosevelt stated "The only wise and honorable and Christian thing to do is to treat each black man and each white man strictly on his merits as a man, giving him no more and no less than he shows himself worthy to have." Pretty radical for the USA in 1901. Pretty radical again today, sadly.
So it was true in the past, but mmj_uk is making, to put it politely, an unsupported connection when they claim it's true today. Despite mmj_uk's claim, political parties don't have DNA. They're not living things.
Oh hello there mr post and run away like little girl that you are.
Still spouting that brain dead nonsense I see.
Typical nonsense post by a liberal supporter who will just post and run away. If you where really bothered by Biden's demented mast slipping then you would be bothered by Trumps demented mask that hasn't just slipped but completely fallen off. You have been fooled completely into supporting one of the DemoRats. The only reason you are lashing out it is it has just started to sink in how you have been supporting a liberal.
Spoilsport.
I was looking forward to hearing mmj_uk's explanation, that is if (s)he had the capability to do something as complex as explaining something.
"The GOP was founded in 1854 by opponents of the Kansas–Nebraska Act, which allowed for the potential expansion of slavery into certain U.S. territories. The party supported classical liberalism, opposed the expansion of slavery, and supported economic reform!

And also in less deaths. Which is presumably why Trump advocated it. Other countries have been using hydrochloroquine in more considered ways. For example, the UK government has acquired quite a lot of it. It's not a whacko tinfoil hat-wearing blathering of nonsense. What makes Trump different in this respect is that he blurts out whatever thought crosses his mind when it does so whereas more sensible leaders think first, speak afterwards and seek good evidence where possible.
There is far too much that isn't known about this specific strain of coronavirus. Why does the same virus affect different people so very differently? Why does it cause so many different symptoms? Why isn't it like the strains of coronavirus that cause SARS and MERS? Is any particular drug beneficial in some cases and detrimental in others?
And my car used to be red.
I love the way some people point to how a party was 100+ years ago as if it's not changed at all in that time.
Both the Republican party and the Democratic party have changed quite a bit since then, for example the Democrats have pushed for equal rights and civil liberties for at least 50 years, whilst the Republicans have pushed against them and done everything they can to restrict voting by every means possible, whilst going from the party of fiscal responsibility to one where they just don't care (IIRC it's been the pattern for the last 20 years that every time a Democrat gets into power they're cleaning up the financial mess left by the previous Republican).

Does mmj actually contribute anything to this thread? What about tang0? These guys don't seem to want to discuss anything, but just drop and run. That's not a conversation, is it?
I mean deuse might struggle to win a game of rock, paper, scissors in a mirror but at least he argues his points by getting all condescending and telling everyone to read the thread. Yanno, reciprocation.

It's difficult to engage when you don't actually think for yourself and simply take people who seem to be "good people", as Trump would describe them, and copy and paste their thoughts.
You can normally tell when they copy and paste, it's less littered with mangled English.
Don't forget the childish 'pants on fire' they like to add.
The funny thing is as a left democrat Trump even said the very same thing that for years the Republican mess up the economy and the Democrats come in and fix it. In Trumps own words
Trump “It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans… But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats ... But certainly we had some very good economies under Democrats… But we've had some pretty bad disasters under the Republicans."
A bit like the current Republican economy which has been the worst economy in 100 years since the great depression.
So are you saying we should judge people and/or organisations by what they did 150 years ago? That people and/or organisations can't change? That we should not forgive or forget what people and/or organisations have done in the past?

****, I can't believe I once bought a Nazi Volkswagen.
To be fair to tang0 he does actually come back and reply, same with deuse. Mind you it’s all nonsense they post.
But mmj adds absolutely nothing and when he is asked to explain, he runs away like a little girl.
Not sure why the mods let him get away with it but then this is GD and not SC, where he’s been banned iirc.
**** I still have a Nazi VW
. Does that make me a Nazi because I own and drive it??

And controlled by the MSM because the Daily Mail used to support the Nazis, but now they're anti Cummings so they must be left wing and I think what he did was ok, because ignoring laws is ok, but only if you're white and/or privileged.
Or something.....
