As President Donald Trump prepared to go to Tulsa for his Saturday rally, Republican Senator James Lankford of Oklahoma proclaimed that “no question this is still the Party of Lincoln.”
Well, Senator Lankford, I have news for you: Today’s GOP, led by Trump, is not the Republican Party of Abraham Lincoln. In fact, it is not the party of Ulysses S. Grant, Teddy Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower or Ronald Reagan, either.
Instead, it is a party increasingly dominated by activists who are overwhelmingly white, always aggrieved, virulently militant about the Second Amendment (and their rights not to wear a face mask during a pandemic), pro-Confederacy and openly racist. That is your party, senator.
