DemocRATs have not changed so much.
Hopefully, somewhere, somehow, consideration is being given to the “...consent of the governed..”. Because we all know that that consent, if not already below 50%, is barely above it and loosing altitude.
The democrat ‘press’ in the Old South was just as biased and anti free speech as they are today.
Years ago I had a book that had compiled editorials from newspapers in the South. All racist with the exception of one in Winston County in Mississippi - and that could be the wrong paper - I read the book over 40 years ago.
To say democrats are the same as they were then is an understatement. They’ve changed their victims from blacks to ‘conservative Americans’ but they use the same evil tactics. John ‘effing idiot’ Kerry said a few days ago that it’s hard to get consensus with the first amendment. He wants to shut down free speech.
Democrats think changing their choice of ‘victim’ from blacks to ‘conservative Americans’ means they’re better - they’re not. It’s not the choice of victims that matters, it’s the heavy handed thuggy totalitarian tactics that define them.
Obviously not.
