@KaliKali: Really? That is very disturbing.

@HoraceGreenley: Yep, some southern trumpistas.

@tindrummer: As a Northern Trumpista, I take umbrage at your remark. Not offended, but annoyed.

Trump has nothing to do with this nor do Conservatism.

@HoraceGreenley: You should probably ask yourself why people like that are attracted to conservatism and Trump though.

@KaliKali: I don't attempt to divine other people's motivations, nor do I judge them. I worry about myself.

I'm Conservative and I believe in Conservative principals.
True Conservatism is about freedom and it is the antithesis of slavery.
I voted for Trump because the alternative was worse.

I will not have guilt by association draped over me.

Do you think I'm a Democrat or something?

Ask yourself a question and answer honestly. In 2017 if you randomly selected 100 members of the KKK how many of them do you think voted for a Democrat in the last twenty years?

@HoraceGreenley: I'm not telling you to feel guilt, just to examine the party you support.

@KaliKali: I have no idea what you are.

I am only telling you what I believe and have done.

I don't give two shits about the KKK.

@KaliKali: I party I support has nothing to do with the KKK or those sympathetic to slavery.

I have no contact with these people nor do I care how they vote. I am not responsible for them is neither is Trump.

they can do what they want...as long as its legal.

I was obviously talking to the person who brought up Democrats, not you.

Why do you think members of the KKK also support the GOP?

You probably should.
