The Democrats will be the very first to eviscerate someone for something they said or did decades ago, even if they've conducted themselves well since then. They don't care.
Hillary Clinton June 28, 2010: “Today our country has lost a true American original, my friend and mentor Robert C. Byrd.”
“They’re getting hoisted on their own petard.”
No they aren’t. The current crop of Democrats are Marxists who thrive on race baiting and they are better at it than you will ever be.
They are perfectly happy seeing Democrats of earlier days labelled as racists. Because they apply that to all of older America. All you are doing is helping them.
