Then Nixon saw how well Wallace did in 68, and embarked on his "southern strategy". The GOP has increasingly embraced racism ever since. ~Steve

You nailed it Steve!

Hatred and ignorance, (They always go together) is and always was the conservative brand.
Conservatives are the folks who brought us the KKK and slavery and Jim Crowe and the Southern Strategy and strict voter ID requirements, and the purging of voter rolls,
and lies about Haitian immigrants, and "Jewish space lasers", and all manner of antisemitic George Soros conspiracy theory's and nazi salutes and on an on.
Who could forget all the young republicans recently telling us, how much they love Hitler!...
"I love Hitler: Leaked Messages Expose Young Republicans Racist Chats."
"Thousands of private messages reveal GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape."

Hate is the secret sauce of MAGA solidarity. It comes across clearly in the posts of marco, LM, BHM, etc.

Heck, Donald Trump was endorsed twice by former KKK leader David Duke and by the "Crusader" the official newspaper of the KKK.

If the hood fits...
