Original Note:
Robinson omitted that GOP & DEM parties swapped platforms on social issues during Richard Nixon's 1968 "Southern Strategy". Nixon ran an unethical, explicitly racist campaign to secure more votes from racist Southerners. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy#1968_election So GOP activists of 1800's would be progressives today.
