Is It Time to Ban the Democratic Party?

Democrats-ViolenceI’d like to thank the Democrat party and their paid “protesters” and fascist-anti-fascists, as well as the media for not just encouraging but demanding we have THIS conversation.

In a 2016 commencement address to City College in New York graduates, then-First Lady Michelle Obama said that “every single day” as First Lady “I wake up in a house that was built by slaves.” True enough.

But what the First Lady left out is that every day any Democrat in America wakes up they are the core of a political party that, like the physical White House, “was built by slaves.”

Jeffery Lord, writing at American Spectator explains why the Democrat Party is the party of racism.

  • Six party platforms from 1840-1860 that supported slavery.
  • Twenty Democratic Party platforms from 1868-1948 that either supported segregation outright or were silent on the subject.
  • The use of the Ku Klux Klan, which, according to Columbia University historian Eric Foner, became “a military force serving the interests of the Democratic Party.” University of North Carolina historian Allen Trelease described the Klan as the “terrorist arm of the Democratic Party.”
  • The Democratic Party opposed the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution. The 13th banned slavery. The 14th effectively overturned the infamous 1857 Dred Scott decision (made by Democratic pro-slavery Supreme Court justices) by guaranteeing due process and equal protection to former slaves. The 15th gave black Americans the right to vote.

The Democrat party grew out of identity politics; it is who they were then and who they are now.

All of which raises the obvious question. If the statues birthed by Democratic Party orthodoxy must come down — and there is now a call to remove statues of prominent Democratic members of the House or Senate from the US Capitol building — should the political party that gave birth to those statues in the first place be the exception to the First Amendment — and banned and outlawed outright?

My answer? Of course not. The First Amendment should protect even a party built by racism and racists. But if Americans are not going to ban the Democrats — the political party that was built on the backs of black slaves and segregation? A party that continues to this very day by feeding off of identity politics — the grandchild of slavery and the child of segregation? Then at the very least the party must be held accountable for its legacy.

And so begins the discussion. Not just of what Democrats were but how they have not changed. They are still obsessed with race, division, and their own superiority. A master class of superior people directing the activities of everyone else. A class that claims to champion women, blacks, and gays, but hates women, blacks, and gays if they refuse to be subservient to their plans, demands, and worldview.

They are still the lords of plantation politics complete with crackers (the media), lynch mobs (AntiFA, BLM, etc.) and House “Negroes” (John McCain and the RINOs).

Nothing about the Democrat Party has changed.
