Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) introduced a bill Thursday on the floor of the House of Representatives that would ban the Democratic Party due to the party’s history of having supported slavery and the Confederacy, saying “that is the standard to which they are holding everyone else, so the name change needs to occur.”

“Whereas on June 18, 2020, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ordered the removal from the capital portraits of four previous speakers of the House who served in the Confederacy, saying that these portraits ‘set back our nation’s work to confront and combat bigotry,'” Gohmert said. “The men depicted in the portraits were Democrat Robert M.T. Hunter, Democrat Howell Cobb, Democrat James L. Orr, and Democrat Charles F. Crisp.“Resolved that the speaker of the House of Representatives shall remove any item that named symbolizes or mentions any political organization or party that has ever held a public position that supported slavery or the Confederacy from any area within the House wing of the Capitol or any House office building and shall donate such item or symbol to the Library of Congress, and two, that any political organization or party that has ever held a public position that supported slavery of the Confederacy shall either change its name or be barred from participation in the House of Representatives."

Democrats need to distance themselves from their racist history.

This where that "The Republicans will take it rip its arms and legs off and beat the living horse shit out of the Democrat party with their own shit, every time!"
Rubber hits the road.

The Left wants to get rid of the presidents Veto powers, end filibusters, and limit the President's pardon and EO powers.
These are all abuses Liberal Presidents have abused on the magnitude of ten fold compared to Trump.
These are tools Democrat presidents use to inflict their will because they know no sane Congress will okey doke their nonsense.

They want to make the President a token figure with no real power other than signing bills into law, with out even any say on them.

LOL, they can't fathom for the life of them, how that will impact future Liberal Scumbag Presidents more than Trump.

First abolish the Republican party for creating the monster Osama Bin Laden and ignoring the warnings about 9/11, then let's see if anyone's still interested in this bit about slavery 150 years ago.

I'm not the one tearing down statues and trying to rewrite history, but I agree both sides have been pretty heinous. Those who forget their history are condemned to repeat it.
Let's end the current corruption before we try to cover up the historic corruption.

Nah, I don’t remember anything about Osama being a Republican. Even Obama was a Democrat!
And how did one little mass murder for jihadi reasons get to be more significant than 100 years of slavery?

Really, you should check your privilege. The deaths of 3000 white people don't equal A hundred years of black people in chains.
How racist can you be?

100% agree.

Tired of the stupid politics-as-sportsball Republicans playing the other side bad, our shit doesn't stink game, currently reaching the level of assigning their own blame to the other side without any consideration or justification deeper than "no u."

If people are going to play this kind of partisan game, they better be ready with facts to back their positions. In this case, I'm countering a 150 year old stretch of a claim with CURRENT EVENTS.

Democrats fought tooth and nail to keep Jim Crow laws up till 1965, not 150yrs ago.
