Then explain it to me. I don't see what that comment adds or contests in my post. What does the KKK have to do with Pence being a bigot and less of a threat than Trump? Or is he saying that the fact that there were once KKK members in the senate that Trump isn't so bad in comparison?

I just don't understand.

It's that really idiotic conservative talking point that because the democratic party was the one that did racist things in the past republicans couldn't possibly be the racist ones now. What I don't get about that, though, is the idea that the KKK was started by democrats so the republicans can't be the the racist party now, but then why do the KKK vote republican now? THey decided to mend their ways and vote for the non-racist party now, or perhaps the KKK is still just as racist, and who they support has changed with things like the Southern Strategy. 

The liberal talking points that republicans are racists or that the south is racist is just as idiotic as saying that any republicans can't be racist now.
