Man, Republicans really hated having a dark skinned President, didn't they?
You can bet that top left chart *would* have shown the same sort of spike between 06 and 10 for the "Against President" measure if Republicans weren't cautious (back then) about what they said about their racial feelings in polite company. And that might be the only positive that comes out of the Drumpf nightmare: Republicans have been so emboldened that they have taken their hoods out of their closets. We can see them for the truly hateful, know-nothing, valueless cretins that they are.
