Yea just as we have now there are RINOs. Your instance hardly qualifies as ‘many’ republicans. There were progressive republicans. Just as we have many republicans that will be able to brought up in future debates as having supported the green movement or gay rights fascist movement, etc…

The mainstay of the KKK was always as a terrorist wing of the democrat party and is well known for targeting and murdering republicans.

Yeah, you're right. Half the Indiana state legislature, all of them Republicans, plus the governor, plus every other statewide office, plus all 13 congressional seats from the state. Hardly anyone.

There were progressive republicans.

Gee, you think? Teddy Roosevelt, anyone?

Only in its Reconstruction iteration. Later Klans had other agendas. The 1920s Midwestern Klan was more concerned with Catholics, Jews and immigrants.

TheBigIf, for your info - I would not qualify ( even if I wanted ) for Klan membership. I’m also about sick of talking about it. You see, my Wife is a good part Cherokee and that wouldn’t qualify for the Klan’s 1/16 rule. So in other words, they would consider my children not racially pure.
