White liberal women love to accuse me of being a racist white male. I ask them what party FDR was and if he’d be a Republican today because of the “party switch”. After they say no he’s a democrat then and now, I ask them how they have the audacity to stand there and tell me to vote for a party that put my wife’s Grandparents in concentration camps.
Elaborate for my ignorant ass this morning please. What significance does the party switch question come into play? If he was D back then, but switched to R (during the "fake party switch bullshit") then wouldn't that then back their claim R's are racist?
Or am I missing something here. Apologies I haven't finished my coffee yet.....
The parties never switched. Over the course of 200 years a lot has changed in politics. Back then democrats were for a smaller government and more states rights. Republicans were for a stronger federal government. This is the only thing that switched and like I said, a lot has happened in the interim that changed the way we interact with our government and it would be stupid to say there was a "switch" as that implies that people thought a certain way one day then all of a sudden changed their mind, or that people switched parties which never happened besides african americans voting for democrats in the 30's due to the great depression and the necessity for stronger safety net programs in cities.

That’s when the queue the angry brow NPC.
