After Lyndon Johnson led the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Republican’s reached out to the Southern Racists who felt betrayed by the Democratic Party, and their Southern Strategy succeeded so that the overt racists of the nation became Republicans instead of Democrats. At the same time, liberal Republicans felt estranged from the “party of Lincoln” and over the years the Republicans drive out the liberals and then the moderates.

Trump insisted that he did not condone or encourage hate groups or white supramacy advocates, but most of the public did, and, most importantly, they thougth that he did and gave him public credit for that as in this quotation.
