The Inconvenient Truth about the Democratic Party
Did you know that the Democratic party defended slavery, started the Civil War, founded the KKK and fought against every major civil rights act in U.S history?

The Ku Klux Klan was founded in late 1865 or early 1866 in Pulaski, Tennessee, by a small group of former Confederate soldiers. Key figures included Nathan Bedford Forrest, a former Confederate general who became the KKK’s first Grand Wizard, along with John C. Lester, John B. Kennedy, James R. Crowe, Frank O. McCord, and Richard R. Reed. Initially formed as a social club with theatrical rituals, the group quickly transformed into a violent, white supremacist organization. Its primary goals were to resist Reconstruction policies, suppress the rights of newly freed Black Americans, and maintain white dominance in the South through intimidation, violence, and terror.

The KKK’s early activities included voter suppression, lynchings, and attacks on Black communities, as well as targeting white Republicans who supported Reconstruction. This aligned with the broader Southern resistance to federal efforts to grant civil rights to Black citizens following the Civil War.
In the post-Civil War South, the Democratic Party was the dominant political force, particularly among white Southerners who had supported slavery and the Confederacy. Nathan Bedford Forrest, a prominent founder, was a well-documented Democrat, later involved in Democratic Party activities in Tennessee. Other founders, such as Lester and Crowe, were also Democrats.

Logically and factually, the statement “Democrats founded the KKK” is true because the known founders, including Forrest, were all Democrats. The KKK’s early membership and leadership were drawn from the South’s white, Democratic-leaning population. Historical records, such as those detailing Forrest’s political activities and the broader political context of Tennessee in the 1860s, support this conclusion.
It should be noted that the KKK founders’ Democratic affiliations are not in serious dispute among historians.
It should also be noted that the DNC did not create the KKK – but Democrats did.
Democrats are pretty much the same thing today as they were during the American Civil War and American Civil Rights Movement. They just hide it all behind handouts (see, buying votes) and broad smiles in this day and age. The next time you see that ear to ear smirk on the face of this creepy little bastard Joe Biden just remember that he said, not all that long ago, that he didn’t want his kids in a racial jungle. Joe Biden, like most democrats in elected office, is racist to the bone.
