Watch the video, Mr. D’Souza deals with that - Grant’s wife inherited a slave, but he was a Democrat at the time.
Mr. Grant's wife had numerous slaves - it was Mr. Grant that was said to own just one slave.
And the only reason Mr. Grant married into the slave business at all was because he determined it was in his best self-interest.
Ivory soap was marketed as 99 and 44/100 percent pure. D’Souza takes marketing to the next logical step: 100 percent of Republicans were 100 percent pure on slavery 100 percent of the time. “Buy new and improved Republican with confidence!”
But what will happen if potential customers find out the father of the Republican party was an ardent champion of white supremacy?
That is why I recommend being careful how you play the race card.
