      Yeah. Hell the Democrats were filled with the Klan. To the point Hillary Clinton had Robert Byrd as a mentor. Robert Byrd was a grand dragon in the klan.

      To anyone who mentions the southern strategy, no policies changed, and almost no politicians swapped sides. It was a PR campaign, nothing more.
