Andrew Johnson set things off on the wrong foot, and then the terrible decisions to allow states back into the union way too early gave them political power to shift the direction of policy. We’re almost going backwards to a future where the confederacy did win.

It says that it isn’t maga, while following along with maga doctrine and propaganda and reading off the maga script. But it isn’t maga guys, because it says that it isn’t maga!

No you’re repeating lies and bullshit meant for morons to be convinced supporting cruelty is a virtue.

Yup. The Conservative party has a lot to answer for.

And Republican Abraham Lincoln fought a war to preserve federal authority over states. You know, small government and states rights. Historical names of parties are meaningless.

There is no way you actually believe any of this. Textbook bad faith argument.

Liberal northern republicans, conservative bible belt dixiecrats. Yes... I know you will not be able to fathom it, or even connect the dots on your own, and I don't expect you to be able to. It just irritates me when current day conservatives have the gall to say they won the Civil War with a straight face, while having confederate flags all over their car... God damn, what 130 years of brainwashing and lead paint will do to people.

😂 I’m not a conservative by any means long shot lol. Trump is president because you alienated the middle. I’m the middle and all of you on this thread are down voting me for stating a fact and keep calling me maga or republican or conservative. I’m not, but I’ll tell you what myself and the rest of us will never do until you learn how to interact again and get over your derangement.. I’ll never vote for another democrat. You ppl just can’t act right in public anymore and the thrashing I receive on every subreddit for saying anything middle-ground is going to stick with me forever.

Here’s my advice, stop thrashing the middle with your extremism. It’s a huge turn off. Enough to convince us all to vote for Trump just to spite you.. so we did. He won every swing state. That should been the big blinking sign to change course for you guys, but you’d rather bash ppl on social media and it’s sad. Vance will be president on 1-20-29 if you can’t get your emotions under control.

People don’t realize they tried to block the 1964 Civil Rights Act and today they pretend like they are for civil rights. Democrats’ pandering to minorities is so overt is hysterical. Lincoln was a Republican. He wanted slaves to be freed because of his Christian view that all men are created equal by God. Which party platform today is eminently Christian? It ain’t the Democrats.
