Why do they stand with the Trump voters? And if it's the dem's creation, fine, they take that L. But they seemed to latch on to the republican side. Why's that?
You're trying to find sensible acts from Klansmen, Nazis and similar leftists?
Nazis tend to avoid other like-minded leftists, since the can't stand the competition.
As for Klansmen, those are mostly Democrats, and always have been. Despite what they try to pretend in the modern era.
Emmett Till - Woman claims that Till groped and sexually harassed her in a grocery store. She is willing to testify to this under oath. There is no corroborating evidence. Till claims innocence.
Brett Kavanaugh - Woman claims Kavanaugh groped her and laid on top of her at a party in the early 80s. She is willing to testify to this under oath. There is no corroborating evidence. Kavanaugh claims innocence.

Also, I should say, dems can have their idiotic groups like antifa which need to be addressed.
But I always find it funny that right leaning folks here like to refer to the past as if there aren't neo nazis or KKK members sporting the red hats?
Not sure why that's so surprising. Once the Democrats began supporting the Civil Rights Act in the 60's it was obvious that the times they were a-changing. White supremacists shifted away from the Democrats at that point - but the reality is that they didn't have much tolerance from traditional Republicans either. It's the recent emergence of the reactionary Right, and the hijacking of the Republican Party by Trump that has given them a safe haven.
GOP can ignore the Southern Strategy to their heart's content - but the GOP has always been bigoted. Before the Southern Strategy, the GOP of today were the Democrats of yesterday.
The 'Democrats' of the 60's - opposed to the Civil Rights Act - ARE today's Republican party.
Do you have an actually reliable source for proving this bunk?

Democrats didn't support it as much as Republicans did.
Even if Senator Byrd, wasn't a Republican, the KKK clearly align with the Republican party. You can use Mr.Byrd all you want but the KKK, aren't from the New York's, San Fran's and Austin's almost every place the KKK is located is dominated or predominantly a Republican area. Tell me what about the democratic platform appeals to the KKK and Neo-Nazis? I'm sure they loved Obama,as he represent their values perfectly .
If the KKK are Republicans then BLM and Anti-fa members must be registered Republicans. We can pretend, that Charlottesville Neo-Nazis and KKK members at the "Unite the Right" rally were al secretly Hillary voters, and I'll pretend that Anti-fa's candidate for president was Donald Trump.
Even if Senator Byrd was a DEMOCRAT, If the KKK are DEMOCRATS then BLM and Anti-fa members....
I fixed that for you.
If you read, even here on CD, the experiences of many black people, they have found more discrimination and bigotry in Northern states than in the South. There are racist bigots everywhere and the DEMOCRAT party using the black population the way they have for years is the most racist of all. Thankfully the black population, at least in part are waking up and walking away. Likely they are tired of being treated like they are stupid by the Democrats.

You really need to learn to which party the bigots belong, and always have...
The widest income/wealth gaps are in blue cities and states. Correspondingly, they are also the most racially segregated both in neighborhoods and public schools. Democrats are NIMBY bigoted racists.
And here's a REAL eye-opener for people who don't realize how very racist Democrats can be: an interesting fact that few know about very blue Chicago...
White Democrats in Chicago insisted that Chicago's "Equity Insurance" program be implemented.
VERY important to read the Chicago Magazine article. Much of the info is just simply jaw-dropping. For example, it was White Democrats who in the 1980s insisted the City of Chicago implement "equity insurance" in case they had to sell their homes at a loss because Blacks had moved into the neighborhood and torpedoed property values. The "equity insurance" program is still in place to this day.
The media never mentions it because the City of Chicago equity insurance program benefits White Democrat voters. They're protected from the loss of equity in their homes caused by what they've identified as "minority creep" into their lily White neighborhoods.
More background info on Chicago's "equity insurance" program:
1988, the inception of Chicago's "equity insurance" program was fairly recent, not pre-Civil Rights. And, as I said, the "equity insurance" program still exists to this day....

The KKK and Neo-Nazis will try to infiltrate any political movement that will let them. They are a tiny, insignificant group who desperately wants to be taken seriously. You better believe they're absolutely loving all the undeserved attention that Antifa has brought to their cause. Antifa actively accuses about 90% of America of being racists, nazis and fascists. They're thrilled!
It is at least significant to know that the KKK, Communists and Nazis were all on the Left back when they actually mattered. As a result, many of the causes the Democrats passionately believe in have racist roots. Margaret Sanger helped found Planned Parenthood in large part because she believed in Eugenics, considered black people inferior and wanted to see blacks self-purge via abortion. Eerily enough, we're seeing exactly that right now. Blacks have significantly higher rates of abortion than any other demographic in America. That's worth serious consideration and reflection.
But the past is the past and the Democrats are the party of black people right now. I do think it's foolish for blacks to mindlessly pull the lever for Democrats instead of forcing Dems to earn their vote. I also think that any party standing opposite from "the Jewish and black people party" is pretty much guaranteed to be the party that the KKK and Neo-Nazis endorse and vote for. But I'm also not aware of the Republicans actually doing anything that the KKK an Neo-Nazis want them to. Can you offer some examples?
No Republican politician endorses any position held by these folks. The GOP prefers to just ignore them and hope they'll go away. It would be better if the GOP were more vocal in their denunciation of white supremacists and the like. That being said, these groups are a heckuva lot smaller than groups like BLM and Antifa.
