So true. O'bama wasn't kidding when he said he wanted to ""fundamentally transform " America. We are seeing this play out today in Obama's 3rd term. 
OMG that isn't what either Jarrett or I said. Its truly insane the world you live in. You read what you want to read. You hear what you want to hear. Its like we live in two different realities. That is inherently the problem with discourse today. Then if you don't like what people are saying you call them a bigot or racist as if that solves a god damn thing. If you can't come to grips with the foundation of your party and understand its roots weren't exactly very one love and equality, I don't know what to tell you anymore.
I mean c’mon , there’s a time and a place for partying , like the bars or the clubs during the weekend nightlife , but not here in the covers.com politics forum . Keep that stuff out of here . The booze . The women . The China white . It’s not necessary . You reading this stuff sober or what ? Not trying to be a dick here , but I’m noticing that there is a whole bunch of crossed signals going on , and an inordinate amount of miscommunication that is rearing it’s ugly head . It has to stop . Let’s get it together . Let’s lay off the sauce and the recreational feel good flattery and let’s focus in like Nolan Ryan when he’s got 2 strikes on the batter
Exactly right. Tim Scott is a perfect example of this playing out in front of us today (right Barack O'bama ?? ) .
And it's also bitterly ironic that Trump helped bring down unemployment for blacks and minorities to record lows during his presidency. But never mind that, right lefties ? You would rather just pretend it not to be true and carry on w/ your narrative that Trump is a racist..
Under Biden administration, black unemployment rate fell from 16.8% to 5% in March 2023 according to Bureau of labor statistics. This is the lowest rate on record and even lower than during Trump administration. A testament to US economic recovery after the pandemic.
Don't play dumb, or maybe you are not playing. You and Jarrett were trying to imply that somehow Southern Democrats from 175 years ago in Southern ruby red states were somehow the same as Democrats today. Anyone with an education past 6th grade knows this isn't even remotely true. Now you are backtracking because you were exposed. 
These are your words. The roots of today's Democratic Party is not the the KKK or Southern Democrats representing the Deep confederate South from 175 years ago. This is 100%, completely false and a lie you believe because you get your news from social media.
@thirdperson
But it was the 2017 tax cuts that ushered in all kinds of benefits for the people, particularly for lower- income and minority folks.. I already posted this earlier, perhaps in another thread.. but i know you " overlooked" that..
BTW, these tax cuts are still in place, so should we find it surprising if the data continues in the same direction, despite a different president ? What's "disingenuous " is that your party is actually looking to roll back these benefits on the people, when the program expires in a couple years.
*Your homework assignment is to find just a handful of Democrats in Congress that want to extend these tax cuts.. ( do I need to remind you again that "no" democratic supported the 2017 legislation)
Yes the ROOTS you mother fucking dumbass!
Excuse me with the namecalling.
However, you are 100% incorrect. Every post you respond with shows how truly uneducated you are. The Democratic Party of the 1800s is not the Democratic Party of today in any way. Not in representation, ideology, values. Nothing. The fact you do not know the parties switched names and ideologies 100 years ago shows what a failure the American school system is. I can only suggest you read books instead of Twitter.
Just like your symbol a true jackass to the end. Someone actually tries to discuss real facts and history with you all you can do is say hee haw heeeeee hawwwwww HEEEEEEE HAWWWWWWWW because you can't intelligently discuss anything. You and all libtards like you are why this country is doomed. I am done trying. Stay off my lawn!
Does namecalling make you feel tougher??? Libtard??? Huh? Because I am calling out your lack of education does not make me a "libtard". The fact you do not know or acknowledge that there were also Northern Democrats that fought the KKK and Southern Democrats to preserve the union shows me that you do not operate in facts or history.
Poor effort all around on your part. 
That is the problem Wall it's not even a debate. The guy isn't even debating what Garrett and I brought to his attention. It's ridiculous. Just highlights the problem when dealing with people like him. It's why I left my lobbying job in DC. You literally can't intelligently debate a topic with someone when they are not even in the same universe as you. This guy wouldn't even agree that the sky is blue on a clear day. He likely would say its many colors of the rainbow. While I have known you for a long time and I respect you please don't say what this guy is doing is a debate as its insulting.
Hard to know what the rules are around here.
Guy gets called out for spewing BS and arguing selective history, trying to antagonize, then goes off on a namecalling tirade.
But seems perfectly fine in these parts.
Question for you Jerson.
Since you claim the Democratic Party is the party of the KKK, who is the political party of the KKK today?
Here is a hint. It is not the Democratic Party today.
Again not even representing what we said. We said that the Democratic party has its roots in the KKK. For the love of God actually report what we said accurately. Not your CNN version of events. But for the record I am certain most members of the KKK probably are independent and don't associate with any party if I had to guess. Most Republicans don't associate with an organization like that either believe it or not.
I blame the school system and culture. They simply do not know U.S. history or selectively retain certain information to push absurd narratives. I have actually heard Ted Cruz push this same narrative numerous times that the Democrats are the party of the KKK. It's disturbing. These are the same kinds of people that wave confederate flags and claim they are American Patriots. It's actually baffling.
I don't know what this we is, but it definitely isn't what Jarrett is pushing. What I said is that Today's Democratic Party does not have roots in the KKK. This is what you and Jarrett are arguing against, which is nonsensical. Your statement completely ignores the fact that the 1850s Southern Democrats do not represent the same political party (Democratic) that they did 175 years ago. It's just NOT the same party in any way. I guess you think because it was called the same thing means it's the same party. This reflects how little you know about American history. That is my point. Selective history.
