I'm not sure how the party that elected the first black senator in the south since reconstruction is defind as the party of 'racism'.
Because they don't agree with the author or the red hats on here's world view. Therefore, they gloss over things like the election of Tim Scott (at a better % rate than white male Lindsay Graham in the same state) and the election of Mia Love in Utah.
Republicans are against the expansion of the welfare state and want to do a silly thing like control the border. And they oppose a black President on *gasp* principles. Screw ideological differences. They must clearly be racist instead.
