Ah... Here come the pedants talking about *checks notes* 1932🤡, and LBJ in 1964. The "party of Lincoln" foolishness and "Republicans freed the slaves" garbage is never far behind. You know I'm talking about post "Southern Strategy" and post Goldwater. Say something about an election this century.

For those that don't know US political history (or that know it but pretend not to know it), this is the "Southern Strategy" that formed the basis of the modern GOP. Since it took hold in a presidential election (1968), white voters in the US have always voted more for the GOP candidate. Always.
