In regard to Cramer's dropping out of the race, I'll paraphrase Bertholt Brecht: "Do not rejoice you men. The bastard is dead, but the b*tch who bore him is still in heat."
Racism is still around, even with Cramer gone.

Again Cramer (Like her hero Trump) have gauged the public mood in Michigan and decided she would have enough support if she ran on such a racist platform. I don't think it's an accident.

Let's not forget that Louisiana seriously considered a grand wizard of the KKK (David Duke) as recently as 1992. Strom Thurmond was supported by people in North Carolina from 1924 to 1964 on a platform of segregation.

The white voting public in these states are the ones who need to have their heads examined. It's a little like how Germany got a free pass after WWII because a handful of Nazis were blamed and the millions of Germans who happily participated in lifting the Nazis to power and participated in genocide had a bout of amnesia when confronted about what happened in the 1930s and 1940s.

Unfinished business

Then KKKramer found out she was wrong about public support.

The Germans voted for the Nazis out of desperation.

They were guilty of stupidity and obliviousness more than anything else.

I would give most of the populace a free pass.

Has anyone heard if Bed, Bath & Beyond Michigan locations are doing a 90 percent off bed sheets sale in honor of the election?

I happen to need bedsheets myself.

If they are white, I definitely wouldn't buy them from this "sale."

I was being sarcastic about the sale, but you seemed to get my implication about the sheets being white.
