So, you have these conservatives who love going around telling liberals that the Democratic Party is the party of slavery and segregation, and pretend political realignment never happened.
This is particularly rich when openly white supremacists who dream of returning to the Jim Crowe days say such a thing. After all, if you are a white supremacist and you think the Democratic Party of today subscribes to the same philosophy of the southern Democratic Party of the late 19th century you would not hate today’s Democratic Party.
Two can play at this game.
The conservatives love chanting about “taking our country back.” The problem then is that conservatives have no legitimate claim to this country in the first place.
See. Those who call themselves conservatives fought against the founding of this country in the Revolutionary War. Conversely, the French, who conservatives despise (something, something cheese), did fight for the founding of this country meaning President Macron has a greater claim to taking this country back than anyone calling themselves a “conservative.”
Those who called themselves conservatives made war against the United States in the Civil War. They murdered US Soldiers and assainated a US president.
People who called themselves liberals fought for the independence of this country in the Revolutionary War. They embraced the enlightenment ideals that motivated our founders. They wrote the Declaration of Independence, constructed our Constitution and created the Bill of Rights.
People who called themselves liberals fought for the United States against the conservatives who wanted to see its destruction. They rejected the conservatives preferred economic system of slavery and brought it to its knees.
Therefore the United States is not a country in which conservatives lay any claim of taking back. They have no legitimate claim to this country. If anything they are the enemies of this country, heirs to stubborn, cowardly and dumb men who were too timid to follow the bold vision of our revolutionary founders.
This is a time for the rightful heirs of that bold vision, today’s liberals, to take back this country from the traitorous usurpers who have always been the United States’ enemies.
