The democrats founded the KKK...

Not that this will make a dent on you, but for other readers out there...

The KKK was founded around 1870, after the Civil War, by Confederate officers.

They were, and still are, an extremist right-wing xian organization. In the late 1800s, and well into the 1900s, Dems and Reps were not the same as they are today. Back in the day, you had actual conservative Dems and liberal Reps. The sharper division happened in the mid 1960s with the CRA. Southern Dems became Reps.

So, yes, technically people labeled "Dems" very well may have founded the KKK 150 years ago (not sure of the founders' political parties, but they were southern Confederates, so there's a good chance). Had they lived long enough (I'm pretty sure all the Confederate officers were dead by then), they would have switched parties to "Rep" after 1964, as most Southern Dems did. And what party did they switch to in the 60s?? Republican. The "GOP" became the home of the racists, and the right-wing xian groups like the KKK. And it has been so ever since.
