Unless my understanding of history is totally assbackwards, I could have sworn that what was known as the Jim Crow laws were the brainchild of those in the Democrat Party. The laws affected almost every aspect of daily life, mandating segregation of schools, parks, libraries, drinking fountains, restrooms, buses, trains, and restaurants. "Whites Only" and "Colored" signs were constant reminders of the enforced racial order. And despite the fact that it was the Democrats who came up with these laws, we’re constantly being told by Democrats today that somehow it’s Donald Trump, a Republican, who somehow yearns for a return to the days of Jim Crow.
And it’s one of those who spend a great deal of
their time doing their best to sound the supposed alarm is, of course, none
other than James Clyburn, Democrat from South Carolina. And it was Clyburn who,
during an appearance this past Friday on CNN’s “Inside Politics” actually
attempted to make the argument that the country was in danger of Jim Crow laws
returning because voters did not prioritize democracy. Host and resident moron
Dana Bash said, “I want to switch gears to something that former President Obama
said. He made I believe his first comments since the election. He said this
last night. I want you to take a listen."
It was Thursday in Chicago that ex-president ‘BO’ said,
“Talk of bridging our differences when the country and the world seemed so
bitterly divided felt like an academic exercise, it felt farfetched, even
naive. Especially since as far as they were concerned, the election proved that
democracies pretty far down on people’s priority list.” Democracy is far down
the list? Really? Well, let’s start by saying we aren't a democracy but a
constitutional republic, the democratic process was in full view as the American
people democratically voted in President Trump. ‘BO’ spoke about the “bitter
division” when he’s the one who started the whole division mess.
Personally, I’m thinking that both ‘BO’ and Jimmy, are
both very wrong. I don’t see the reelection of President Trump isn’t about bringing
Jim Crow back. It certainly didn’t happen the last time Donald Trump was
president, and there’s no reason to expect it to happen this time. In fact,
black did quite well the last time Donald Trump was in the White House. This is
simply more drivel from men who absolutely excel at spewing drivel. Democracy resulted
in President Trump and Republican majorities. Democracy kicked Democrat asses
to the curb. ‘BO’ gave us a rebirth of racism disguised as Critical Race Theory
(CRT) and, now, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI).
Anyway, it getting back to the subject at hand, Bash
said, “What do you make of the former president’s comments?” Clyburn said,
“Well, I think they ring true. Not that they should be true but they have
demonstrated that that is the case. I you know, you know me very well, and you
know that I spent a lot of time studying history. I’ve talked about this
election, even going in the run up to the election from a historical
standpoint. I seem to remember, as we were celebrating the 100th anniversary of
this country’s existence, we had a presidential election in 1876 and you see
what happened to democracy in that election, it led to Jim Crow."
Clyburn went on to say, “I’m the ninth
African-American to serve in Congress from South Carolina the problem is that
95 years between number eight and number nine because democracy was driven so
far down on people’s lists back in 1876. There’s a danger of that happening
again.” Another leftist idiot trying to keep racism alive and well. Clyburn
refuses to acknowledge that Black people are now educated, even highly
educated, so Jim Crow is gone the way of slavery. These race hustlers retain
power by continually creating the narrative that racism awaits around every
corner. He doesn't want black privilege to disappear is what he's really
saying."
Perhaps Jim Clyburn forgets, or conveniently ignores
the fact, that, as I previously pointed out, the Jim Crow Laws were written by
Democrats! As were Segregation and the Ku Klux Klan creations of the Democrats
as well. Clyburn is a one trick pony. He's a Democrat Plantation overseer his
job is to keep the slaves in line. Democrats have a hard time letting go of
their old ways. If they were going to bring it back it probably would have been
under the Biden regime. This grifter represents one of the poorest districts in
SC and can only bring up boogie men of the past as to blame for everything. He
should retire. His day is done.
Clearly Clyburn has no concept of history or the
fact that Jim Crow laws were put into place by the Democrat Party which did
everything that it possibly could to tamp down black participation in our
society. If there was a delay between freeing slaves and their participation in
government, it was 100% the fault of his own party. Clyburn is so far off base
that’s he's not even on the playing field. Throughout his long and rather
pointless political career, Clyburn has brought fearmongering and race baiting
to a high art form. He would fade away without race division. And ‘BO’s entire
agenda was to divide the nation along racial lines. He turned the nation back
decades.
Those like Clyburn both misuse, and overuse, of such
terms as raciest, those who scream about it endlessly are, more often than not,
the guiltiest. I absolutely love watching brainless Democrats bleat about how
they “studied history” and then go on to try and act like it wasn’t them that
did every horrible thing they whine about. Listening to these people whine
about racism and the like is the same as listening to an arson complain about
all the fires he’s been setting. Civil rights used to be about treating
everyone the same. But today some people are so used to special treatment that
equal treatment is considered to be discrimination.
Whys is it that those on the left such as ‘BO’ and
Jimmy continue to claim that democracy is endangered because an unqualified
liberal Democrat fails to win an election. Doesn’t opinion of the American
people matter? Not to those on the left, I guess! The only thing that matters
to them is that the left is able to gain and/or retain control over us. President
Trump and most of his supporters have no interest in going backwards. Jim Crow
laws were passed by Democrats. These laws were changed by Republicans. And it’s
been the Democrats who have done all they could to halt the progress of rights
for all citizens. It has been Republicans who supported equal rights.
The Republicans were the
ones who passed the Civil Rights Act. Democrats were the ones wearing sheets.
Democrats like Clyburn believe their constituency really is that stupid.
Clyburn believes that blacks can never be successful without government intervention.
Up until 1960, blacks voted Republican, had nearly identical unemployment and
out of wedlock birthrates as whites. With his ‘Great Society’ legislation LBJ
accomplished his mission when he bragged about having blacks voting Democrat
for the next 200 years. Although his language was a bit more colorful. Clyburn now
appears more than a bit worried that voting block is now fracturing, that he
needs to try and reel them back in.
