Just as we rejected slavery

Bro, you have a confederate flag hanging above your bed.
Oh, you rejected slavery because you're the party of Lincoln? Tell me, what was the flag that Lincoln actively fought against?

“…women as second-class citizens”. Dude, you’re the ones trying to limit access to female reproductive care.

We also rejected mercantilism... even though Trump's apparent economic strategy of 'remove all taxes and replace them we a 20% import tariff across the board' is basically a return to mercantilism.

We rejected second class citizenship for women... even though most Republicans seem to want to basically return to that by removing no fault divorce in addition to criminalizing abortion and basically ending sex ed.

We rejected Wilsonian globalism... and then fought and died in WW2 (which is where we rejected fascism) because we preferred to be isolationist until Japan and Germany declared war on us and then we built the fucking UN headquarters in New York (Wilson's League of Nations version 2.0).

In summary, they must have consulted with whatifalthist to get their version of American History.

In a (historically relevant reference) word: NUTS!
