This says it all

The Democratic Party of yore is no more. Instead it has been taken over by the rabid Regressives, including Socialists, Marxists, Islamists and atheists. Which is one of the reasons why this country is so divided. You could have a reasonable debate with an "old Democrat", and even if neither of you could convince the other with your arguments, to could part friends. Today, if you dare disagree with a Regressive, you will be called a racist, misogynist (hater of women for those of you Regressives that served time in a government school), homophobe or Islamophobe.
Oh, for the days when civil discourse was possible.
