Original Note:
Criticism across the political spectrum exists, predominately from politically-Right sources: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/sheldon-whitehouse-member-all-white-club_n_60d0fe24e4b038d5b9ab494a "While some Democrats supported the KKK, there’s no evidence the group was founded by their political party." https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2018/oct/24/blog-posting/no-democratic-party-didnt-create-klu-klux-klan/ Tweet lacks accurate information and ignores historical context.
