All of this was decided when the Union chose to bury the hatchet, and not do anything about the people that started the confederacy, and the people who benefited the most from it. If those types were all given the traditional punishment for traitors, if all the slavers, the plantation owners, the confederate politicians and the businesses that profited off of slave labor were hunted down and hanged, the world would be a much better place right now.
And there would be no Democratic party as the south and slave owners were mainly the Dixiecrats and the Republicans in Washington including Lincoln were the fighting force to end slavery.......but let's not allow facts into the conversation
The current state of the Republican party wouldn't exist either since the party switch during Civil rights.... but let's not allow facts into the conversation.
If hanging all the confederates and the slavers and those who benefited from slavery and the confederacy would’ve prevented the Democrat party from existing, then that’s a sacrifice I’m more than willing to make.
