@ashleytheebarroness: My favorite kind of history is when the people involved do all the explaining for me. Lee Atwater certainly did. #americanhistory #southernstrategy #republican #historytok #fyp
and that's where Heritage Foundation got it's start

I’m from Mississippi. We KNOW that “states rights” is absolutely racist.

Reagan is responsible for so much of what’s wrong with this country. I read that the heritage foundation originally drafted up a version of project 2025 for Reagan. Obviously it wasn’t called project 2025, but it was the same plan

He also gave a speech where he talked about welfare queens, that riled people up and led to the changes in snap benefit, and EIC tax calculations. I was so angry, especially because I was too young to vote; how could the adults not SEE it??

Let’s not forget, the day after the 1984 presidential election, Atwater became a senior partner at the political consulting firm of Black, Manafort, Stone and Kelly. Paul Manafort and Roger Stone.

Everything after the constitution was ratified has been “States Rights”. And we all know what it means.

Reagan did several "speeches" at key places AND dates. It was a dog whistle to the same people that are Trump and MAGA today. Same ones that were confederate south... probably were even the Monarchists during the War of Independence (from King George of England).

Reagan was the prez that joined with the Heritage Foundation. 1980 is when P2025 started.

Fun fact: Reagan, while CA Governor, signed the very first gun control legislation in the country. To keep the Black Panthers from arming.

It's about effectiveness and plausible deniability, not just for the politicians, but for supporters, donors and voters. Who doesn't want "tough on crime," "strong borders," etc. They think that only dogs hear the dog whistles.

I believe Regan was the beginning of what the republican party has devolved into what we are enduring now.

States’ rights, law and order, inner city, welfare queen, silent majority…all dog whistles that are used frequently in conservative speeches
