I've been called a N lover multiple times over there for supporting Obama.
And I've been called a n*gger and uncle tom to my face irl for having the gall to not vote for Obama. And that pales in comparison to what my mom and sisters have had said to them for the same by these so called minority-champion democrats.
Don't go down this road with me.

Wrong. And that's what I mean by you thinking your party's shite doesn't stink. You think you're the saviors of mankind, especially the minority folk, and that kind of savior complex makes you think that you can do no wrong as long as you can say "this legislation is for [name a random minority group]."
It's not helping. It's virtue signaling for the sake of solidifying a blind voting block.

In general, a few:
Opposition to increased minimum wage (tamps down inflation, which ALWAYS negatively affects those lowest on the socioeconomic ladder) and increased estate taxes.
Mitigated regulation of free markets (spurs economic growth across the board).
Protection against the curtail of 2nd amendment rights.
Etc.
Kind of a wild goose chase of a question, as very rarely are there panaceas when it comes to party policy (a claim, you'll note, that I didn't make). The fact that you think Dem policies are the be all/end all of helping people says a lot about the rhetoric you've swallowed.
I don't think the GOP is perfect, nor do I support 100% of their policies. As a conservative-leaning person, though, more of their policies align with my values than the Democratic party. Has been that way my whole life, and as long as I've been old enough to vote. If/when that status quo changes, I'll re-evaluate. Like a responsible voter.
I don't vote based upon the color of my skin, or based upon which party self-anoints themselves as champion of people who happen to look like me. That's foolish.

In Eugene, Prof. Dunn joined the Masons and the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. Recently, a historians commission charged by the University of Oregon to investigate Dunn's life revealed that he also led the virulently anti-Catholic activities of Eugene's chapter of the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s, whereupon the University of Oregon's Board of Trustees decided to remove Dunn's name from one of the university's residence halls.
Anti Catholic - so all is okay. Leave the name there.

Democrats actually offer help to the black community, republicans don't give the First frick.
Well, this isn't true at all.

You will find that republicans actually try to help those in poor areas improve the quality of life in those areas and try to bring the standard of living up.
Democrats keep blacks suppressed by offering what seems like help, but really is just another controlling method. Why do you think, with democrats in charge for most of the last 50 years, nothing has improved in the black community except they area stronger voting block for democrats.

Meh. I am a pretty traditional Catholic but I don't care about historical figures that didn't like Catholics. None of them liked Catholics back in the day here in the US. Norms of the times.
I would prefer people educated each other about these people and their flaws rather than trying to erase them from history.

bullshite or not all the white supremacists in this country supported Trump because he's anti immigration.
At least he ran on that. How's the "wall" Mexico is supposed to be paying for coming along?

thanks for your thoughtful & informative responses ITT
when I see folks on the left use arguments like those used by TT9; all I can do is shake my head
using generalizations (all racists vote for Republicans) & making things up (the photo); demonstrate a lost argument

I voted for Trump. I never elevated him to God status. If you're going to discuss politics with me, you're going to need to check your stupid rhetoric at the door. I'm not a poliboard shill but you keep coming at me like I'm a dumb MAGA-head or something.
Also, nice deflection from getting called in the carpet. Holy frick you've been a hack itt.
