George W. Bush says the Republican Party has a shot at future elections if it curbs its 'white Anglo-Saxon Protestantism'
Business Insider via Yahoo News ^ | Sat, May 1, 2021, | Yelena Dzhanova

Former President George W. Bush said he believes the Republican Party will win in future elections if its members embrace traditional ideals and curb the "white Anglo-Saxon Protestantism."

Asked about the state of the Republican Party, Bush told "The Dispatch Podcast" he believes there's potential to win in the upcoming midterm elections and the 2024 presidential election.

"I think Republicans will have a second chance to govern because I believe that the Biden administration is a uniting factor, particularly on the fiscal side of things," he said.

But the Republican Party will not win by representing ideals tied to white supremacy, he suggested.

"If the Republican Party stands for exclusivity - it used to be country clubs, now it's white Anglo-Saxon Protestantism - then it's not going to win anything," Bush said.

What the blind do not get... It is the very ones he calls out...who are holding what is left of our country together.. And the ones who will put it back together.
We are the ones not infiltrated into money position and power in Washington politics. GW lost all his senses on the real world out here.. And he never was a conservative.. Nor a fine man... He is a typical rich kid who grew up spoiled and if he kept his mouth shut for 8 Obama years, he can keep his opinions of Trump and we folks shut up too.
The republicans he is talking about are all on their way out. Never before in history have we needed them to be in the fight like we do now.. And they are AWOL.

GW thinks we are the losers.. let me inform him.. we are the ones they need...

Was W being “too Protestant” when he lied about WMD and sent our troops to die in his Iraq War?

“Interested in paying their respects and learning more about the life of the 41st president, visitors continued to visit the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum in the year since he was laid to rest on the Texas A&M University campus.

There’s been an increase in people touring the library and museum, as well as Bush’s gated grave site tucked among the oak trees behind it”

Great point. Monumental hypocrisy by an out-of-touch elitist.

GWB seems to have an endless capacity for insulting people who once supported him. Its like he enjoys doing it.

And who is doing that? No one...

In case he didn’t notice - huge inroads were made with so-called “minority” voters in the last election.

It’s being “associated” with that thanks to false media narratives - that doesn’t make it true.

What this shows is that GWB is eating and drinking at the table of the propagandists! He is gorged on it. He repeats the lies he has been fed. All throughout our land the lies spread like wild fire. White is wrong and evil... ALL whites are now racist! Rinse and repeat the lies! Keep repeating every day. People are taking it, hook - line and sinker! Wake up George! True Protestantism is COLOR BLIND! True Protestantism has a slave and a master worshiping together! The Jesus of the Bible and His teachings are the salvation this country needs now!

Bush is a “reactionary” in the classic sense of that term, he has no core values, he just reacts to things in ways that he thinks will preserve his illusory security. Basically he was played by his own party when in office, the Republican version of Joe Biden, a useful figure who appealed to a large segment of the voter base of that time, and was played like a fiddle by much smarter men who wanted to make a lot of money from a war. And they did.

We used to think W was a good guy but in retrospect I think whatever was good about the man was swamped by the dynamic of being played by sinister people and not seeming to realize that fact. If he had realized it, he could have become a great American hero. Trump sort of picked up where he should have gone after nobody was on the case for quite some time. And he may very well become that hero, if he can overturn the neo-con and globalist threats to America (I see them as partially separate agendas maybe even with some rivalries between them).

I don’t think Trump totally overcame the neo-con element in the Republican Party either. That would be a statement W could make — the Republican Party has a shot if it boots out its globalist and neo-con clown car elements.

Donald Trump did more to get the minority vote than any other Republican. Remember he went to black churches in 2016 and had Indians at the White House? Republicans don’t campaign in front of minority audiences.
