The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Yeesh.
Today, racists are overwhelmingly Republican.
The past is the past. It is true that Lincoln was a Republican, Southerners vote for a Southerner, etc. Not relevant.

Democrats do identity politics. If you are a minority, even if self proclaimed, they will fall all over you as long as you are not too successful.

Republicans don't question their supporters. They will pander to the worst racists, religious bigots and NRA for votes and money.

That is the state of the affairs in 2023. It's irrelevant what it was in 1866 or 1966.
