'Trump supporter calls the KKK 'leftists'...'
Can we move the calendar up 50 years to 2016? All of those 'Dixiecrats' are now Republicans. And I don't give a fuck what Woodrow Wilson said 100 years ago. 'Leftists' can't get any farther away on the political axis than the KKK.
It's a lot like the wingnuts' hilarious argument that Hitler and his Nazis were leftists when the fact of the matter is the first people Hitler killed were socialists, unionists and communists. But, you can't fix stupid.
