Rep. Keith Ellison: Trump ‘Worst Republican Nominee Since George Wallace’
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 07/24/2016 10:06:42 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On the off chance that far-left Dem congressman Keith Ellison is on your holiday shopping list, we have the perfect gift suggestion: a good biography of George Wallace. On today’s This Week, Ellison claimed that Donald Trump was “the worst Republican nominee since George Wallace.”

Just one small problem, of course. As Republican Rep. Tom Cole pointed out, Wallace was a Democrat who sought the Dem presidential nomination [multiple times] and even addressed the Democratic National Convention [in 1972.] Ruh-roh!

I agree on both counts.

You’d eliminate a majority of the Democrats right there.

Dr. Phil’s latest book is about protecting yourself from evil people (he calls them by the acronym “BAITERS”).

One of the earmarks of evil, manipulative people is that they “REVISE HISTORY”.

Dems do this ALL the time.

(I am not a “follower” of Dr. Phil, but I thought that this was an interesting insight, nonetheless.)

Oh just wait, Keith Ellison’s next act will be proclaiming that Lester Maddox was actually handing out *free* fried chicken at his restaurant, and not axe handles.

And Bull Connor turned those police dogs loose on those peaceful black protesters for their little kids to play with, and opened up the fire hoses because it was a really hot day in Birmingham and he was just trying to help cool the crowds off.

Yes, an enemy that needs to be relentlessly attacked until there’s not one of them left. And NOW, not after they’ve butchered countless more Americans.

George Wallace won the democratic primaries in Florida, Virginia, Alabama, Tennesse, Maryland and Michigan in 1972.

He won more delegates (382) than Humphrey (67) and Muskie (25) combined.

Ellison then replied: “Wallace wasn’t a real Democrat. He was a Republican with far right wing ideas. We need to call him what he was”./s

LOL     This is insane!     There were maybe ten Republicans in Alabama in the 1960's.

Many are ignorant, intellectually lazy, and have no critical thinking skills. Others are brainwashed Leftists, usually Democrats, whose goal is to transform America into a socialist paradise. You know, like in North Korea.

Gads, what fools... Wallace was a democrat - then an independent. He hated Republicans more than Hillary...
