Thank you for noting that the US has only been a real democracy since the passage of the VRA and CRA in 1964-1965. When will people drop the trope of the ‘oldest democracy in the world’ garbage?
The Republican ticket of 2024 got the most black votes of any Republican campaign in the last 48 years. (Source: CNN) It was one of the reasons Trump defeated Vice-President Harris. It is inconceivable that the black voters who helped re-elect Trump would vote for a ticket which, according to Steve Chapman, had its roots in the Jim Crow law of sixty years ago.
Sadly, many Trump supports are pure tribalists and authoritarians who simply do not care at all about ideas and practice of rights and dignity
