Sure about that?
Wilson made several executive power grabs, among them taking over all of the nation’s railroads via the USRA.
Never mind the de jure class warfare of Jim Crow, enforced by legitimate law enforcement as well as Dem-supported extrajudicial terror groups like the KKK.
It’s a bit hard to demonstrate how much further right the Uniparty were back then versus now, given the history.
The KKK and the democrat party have always been in the exact same political location relative to one another.
The only movement has been the space between what the dems want, and what they claim publically. After the sixties, they moved their public image to the right, away from communism and the KKK where their heart is. More recently, this space has gotten smaller, as Trump’s actions force them to demonstrate what they really want. As this thread points out.
Remember, the KKK is on the left. The creation of a distorted “left-right” political spectrum has been part of the progressivist propaganda. A far more accurate paradigm shows Nazis and communists on one end and American conservatives on the other.
