That is rather the point of political cartoons, to lampoon the target.

Except this Lt Governor is black.
So tell me, how many black members of the KKK were there?

The Lt. Guv. should calmly remind folks that the KKK is, in fact, the product of Democrats.

I think that this is the clearest, most egregious case of projection I have ever heard of. For the Dems to blame the KKK on anyone but Democrats, is simply false.

Exactly. And the GOP did end slavery. After a terrible Civil War. Not all of it fought about slavery.

If the dems were portrayed as that, all hell would break loose.

I see black gangstas and vulgar thugs on every TV channel. Apparently these rude, violent, and loud black yobs roam our cities freely. Riots. Carjackings, Rapes. Robberies, Assaults. Wildings. Free range yobs.

Now tell me, when was the last time anyone saw a Klansman wandering our streets? Never? I thought so.

The irony is that KKK as the armed wing of the Democrat Party and is the cultural foreshadowing of Antifa and BLM, the modern armed wing of the Democrat Party.
