In the 19th century, the Republicans were the more liberal party. I think it began to change right around when William Jennings Bryan was making a populist appeal to unions and the like. Even still, the founder of Progressive Magazine (Robert LaFollette, often referred to as "the father of modern liberalism"😉 was alternately a Republicans and a Progressive Party ...[text shortened]... ublican (later Progressive Party) cousin.
The parties then had little to do with the parties now.
Earl is the genius who thinks that Democrats have never changed, and Republicans are the saviors of the world.
