Most people don't bother to look into the past, and they can't believe that the present is not the worst that has ever been. We need to start teaching this stuff in schools again, and maybe it would temper the angst around election season.

The Compromise of 1877 is different from recent times in that it was a compromise meaning both parties got something they wanted. For the Republicans, they got Hayes as president. For the Democrats, they got the Union, err, I mean the US Army to withdraw from the southern states. Each party got a little something & everyone remained unhappy.

History may not repeat, but it definitely echoes.

I pray against election cheaters.
If a stupid person gets elected. It should be the will of the people.
Not the will of a few criminals.

Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

My grandmother's mother was born in 1854 in a little town adjacent to Montpelier, Vermont. She often told my grandmother that after the 1876 election was finally settled, the Montpelier newspaper, which favored the Democrats, carried a banner at the top of the front page that read, "TILDEN ELECTED, BUT HAYES COUNTED IN!"

I want to everybody remember that how the Democratic party & Repuvlicsm party were in 1877, were pretty much exactly the opposite of now. I mean policy wise it's flipped. Democratic party invented the KKK and up until the civil rights movement it was the more "Conservative" party and the Republican party wad the "Liberal" party. Like the democratic party of 1877, would most likely identify in 2024 with the Republican party, policy wise and vice versa😄

I think it was called "The great party switch/flip" or something like that, because pretty much the Republican party became what the Democrats were before 1960s (Like I said they founded the KKK) and the Democratic party became what the Republicans were before 1960s (trying to push for societal change).

And it was only men who could vote at that time!!!

So what’s happening now is nothing new? That’s regretful.

Sounds like the last 20 years, I'm quite sick of it.

It's so nice that the Civil War veterans that voted back then are still able to vote in present day elections 💀🗳

I just watched a whole group of episodes about the presidents and wow its amazing how the elections went even then.

I feel 2020 was no different. Trump being reelected today reinforces that feeling.
