The Young Republicans spouting racial tropes are descendants of a horrible tradition. I have not heard the kind of slurs, the exact words, that these future leaders of a political party spoke since my young days in Jim Crow Oklahoma. The question is, where did this trash speak come from: their parents? Their peer group? Was this the entry ticket for acceptance to a cult...to talk this way? What in the world made them assume that those they consider peers would think this is OK? Whatever it was, it comes from a very awful part of America's past, passed down to generations.. One fall out of being in an isolated ideological silo, listening only to those who fortify hate speech and who they consider as their leaders, is assuming that everyone else thinks the same way and putting this in a chat record, so it is now safe to do it. However, it is a window into the dark soul of these racists who seek to lead a political party. It is a condemnation of those in that party who tolerate such racial attitudes in a country that is so very racially diverse and becoming even more diverse. Fortunately, at least, the current leadership of the GOP put their foot down on these foul-mouthed and said this is not politically correct. It may be too much to ask that those of similar foul hearts and minds change their souls and minds, while powerful elements in the Trump staff, like Russell Vought and Stephen Miller, support and advocate a white nationalist takeover of the governance of this country and are in a position to make it happen.

Then there is JD Vance noting most people do not like people living next to them who do not speak the same language. With GOP leaders like him, racists and anti migrants will always feel at home. Vance lets his segregationist views slip in new podcast | Opinion
