Not to mention the irony. If you look at his comment and meme history, it becomes rather parent then someone in Central must like him he goes a little bit slightly past dog whistles with the stuff he posts, and not a single thing gets deleted.

Here's some history that I tried to make as unbiased as possible

basically the Democrats became "progressive" (heavy quote) with FDR for his new deal stuff, which was popular amongst minorities as well as the general public (progressive era)
Democrats realizing that if that stopped being racist they could get more votes, but the racist southern Democrats at the time didn't like this.

In the 1948 some southern democrats walked out the DNC and formed the dixiecrats
and the Republicans seeing this opportunity tried to appeal to the Dixiecrats.
but the Dixiecrats didn't like the Republicans initially but slowly they started to see the Republicans as the only option.

This is a common simplified version of the “parties switched on race” story. There was a realignment driven significantly by civil rights, but both parties contained segregationists and reformers at different times, and the drivers were a mix of electoral incentives, ideology, social movements, and backlash — not a straightforward morality play of one side cynically abandoning racism while the other welcomed it.
