    Her description of what the two parties represented in the 1930s is wildly oversimplified and off base Black Republicans who jumped ship to FDR did so *because* he presented himself as a liberal Northerner with no love for segregationhttps://twitter.com/Nomi4dems/status/1240645255239815169 …

        The two parties at the time were much less homogeneous and had a lot less ideological leadership, state parties were a lot more powerful and saw the national party as a coalition

        Black voters voting for FDR did not mean they were also going downballot to vote for open segregationists (in the Southern states where open segregationists had power, they couldn't vote at all, because of the segregation) Come on, use your head

        And it was by no means a universal shift MLK's dad, for instance (Martin Luther King Sr) *didn't* support FDR, he was a lifelong registered Republican who only switched at the age of 61, specifically over civil rights (because JFK stuck his neck out to support his son)

        It wasn't until the 60s that Black Republicans mostly died out as a faction of the GOP, and the stereotype that "Black Democrat = Northerner, Black Republican = Southerner" became obsolete

        And the GOP purged the "Black and Tans" taking away their credentials

        Replying to @arthur_affect

        Why does she think it will be easier to convince the GOP to ignore their rich paymasters then the Dems? We focused on the dems in the first place because they seemed the closest to being able to tell rich donors to shove it ideologically.

        Practically one of the core tenets of the right is that the rich make our society work and need to be pampered in order to keep it that way.
