Let's go back a little further and clarify that democrats intended to keep slavery and Republicans wanted to abolish it. Who screwed up?

While you're drifting back on Memory Lane, Gary, don't forget Strom Thurmond and the "Dixiecrats" who splintered-off when the Civil Rights Act was passed. Wasn't that also about the same time George "Segregation Now, Segregation Tomorrow, Segregation Forever!" Wallace ran for President and managed to receive 13.4% of the Popular Vote?
Times (and minds) have changed.
The Democratic Party of today is no more the organization that gave us Thurmond and Wallace then the Trump (Republican) Party we now have is "still the party of Lincoln".
It's history - get over it.
