A series of poor comparisons. Read the 1860 Republican platform that dismissed the USSC’s authority after their allies lost a big lawfare case. Further, in 1860, the Republicans were the party of sanctuary cities, not the Dems.

Lawfare and sanctuary cities sounds kinda familiar, no?

Exactly right. People nowadays do not realize how very different were the political philosophies of 1860 Democrats and Republicans from modern Democrats and Republicans.

The 1860 Republicans were extremely liberal. Very little of what they believed could be construed as "conservative" by modern standards.
