No it was the Democrats over time who made the Jim Crow laws, why are you lying since it came mostly from the Southern states that were dominated by Democrats for 80 years.

History

KKK founded​

In Pulaski, Tennessee, a group of Confederate veterans convenes to form a secret society that they christen the “Ku Klux Klan.” The KKK rapidly grew from a secret social fraternity to a paramilitary force bent on reversing the federal government’s progressive Reconstruction era-activities in the South, especially policies that elevated the rights of the local Black population.

The name of the Ku Klux Klan was derived from the Greek word kyklos, meaning “circle,” and the Scottish-Gaelic word “clan,” which was probably chosen for the sake of alliteration. Under a platform of philosophized white racial superiority, the group employed violence as a means of pushing back Reconstruction and its enfranchisement of African Americans. Former Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest was the KKK’s first grand wizard. In 1869, he unsuccessfully tried to disband it after he grew critical of the Klan’s excessive violence.

Most prominent in counties where the races were relatively equal in number, the KKK engaged in terrorist raids against African Americans and white Republicans at night, employing intimidation, destruction of property, assault, and murder to achieve its aims and influence upcoming elections.

In a few Southern states, Republicans organized militia units to break up the Klan. In 1871, the Ku Klux Act passed by Congress, authorizing President Ulysses S. Grant to use military force to suppress the KKK. The Ku Klux Act resulted in nine South Carolina counties being placed under martial law and thousands of arrests. In 1882, the U.S. Supreme Court declared the Ku Klux Act unconstitutional, but by that time Reconstruction had ended and the KKK receded for the time being.

That is why 90% of African Americans vote Democratic. You are so stupid....you could be trump.

From
1870 until it was litigated out of existence in 1986 ( By the then relevant SPLC ) eight out of every ten Kluxers ( Members of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan) were Democrats ( or Dixiecrats if the other offends you )

America First! We demand equality for negroes and homosexuals. We demand universal health care! We demand amnesty for illegal aliens!
