5 times liberals have called conservatives racist

2. Democrat Jimmy Carter accused Republican Ronald Reagan of stirring up racism

“In 1980,” McAllister writes, “Jimmy Carter accused Reagan of stirring up racist hate by using ‘code words like “states rights’” werein a speech in Mississippi.’ In an interview with 60 Minutes, Reagan responded to the allegations, accusing Civil Rights leaders of doing what the Left does: keeping the appearance of racism alive so they can maintain their power. And keep it alive is exactly what they’ve done, maligning any effort to conserve American values and American culture with the smear of racism.”
