Some of the lesser-known ones are just as vile — if not worse. Wade Hampton (SC) raised $ for the KKK and became governor in 1876 after his Red Shirt white supremacist allies led a terror campaign to keep Black people from voting. — PolitiTweet.org

Some obv ones — Confederacy President Jefferson Davis (MS) and VP Alexander Stephens (GA), who famously declared it was built on the "great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery, subordination to the superior race, is his natural and normal condition" — PolitiTweet.org

Today, on Juneteenth, @SpeakerPelosi is removing from Congress the paintings of 4 Confederate House speakers. But 12 Confederate statues remain — and the Senate will have to agree to remove them from display if the states don't act. Who are these guys? https://t.co/VKYdrRf4qg — PolitiTweet.org

@Taniel Agree with the first half but if the second half was true she wouldn't have had to bow out, no? Think that record matters, why she's off the list. — PolitiTweet.org

Some other choice quotes: “It’s as dire polling-wise as it’s ever been for Republicans in the Trump era.” "Trump has to get his shit together and his campaign has to get their shit together." “If the election were held today, we’d be talking about a wipeout." — PolitiTweet.org

Cameron Joseph @cam_joseph

Republicans' best hope is that there's still 4 months until the election. But things could get worse, too... “Are we at the bottom or has the bottom not even dropped out yet?” wondered one. “I don’t know what gets us out of this. People are probably just fucking sick of it.” — PolitiTweet.org

Cameron Joseph @cam_joseph

GOP strategists say their state/district polling is just as brutal as what we're seeing in national public surveys. Trump's far behind in MI, WI, PA, trailing in AZ, FL and NC, and barely ahead in GA, TX, IA, OH. That's the whole map. — PolitiTweet.org

Cameron Joseph @cam_joseph

I talked to more than a half-dozen senior GOP strategists about @realDonaldTrump’s current election standing and what he’s doing to down-ticket races. Some choice descriptions: “sucks,” “catastrophic,” “dire,” “ominous.” https://t.co/83Ndcm16De — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting that while @JoeBiden's first English TV ads focus primarily on the moral argument against @realDonaldTrump, the Spanish spot emphasize the pocketbook impact of coronavirus on Hispanic voters. Kicker: "Stories don’t pay the bills." https://t.co/1oh6EcJVj9 — PolitiTweet.org
