George W. Bush Shames Marjorie Greene Over Racist America First Group
Bush said that support among Republicans for “Anglo-Saxon political positions” like those at one point espoused by the America First Caucus developers could spell “extinction” for the Republican Party. Asked if he could imagine eventually abandoning the Republican Party if it follows the “Anglo-Saxon” — and, more to the point, white nationalist — path, Bush said as follows:
‘NO I’D SAY THERE’S NOT GOING TO BE A PARTY. I KNOW THIS, THAT IF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY STANDS FOR EXCLUSIVITY — YOU KNOW, USED TO BE COUNTRY CLUBS, NOW EVIDENTLY IT’S WHITE ANGLO SAXON PROTESTANTISM — THEN IT’S NOT GONNA WIN ANYTHING.’
The former president added as follows in reference to his own past political success among Latino voters:
‘THE KEY THING WAS TO LET THEM KNOW THAT I COULD HEAR THEIR VOICE. I MEAN DEMOCRACY IS GREAT IN THAT SENSE. AND, THE IDEA OF KIND OF SAYING YOU CAN ONLY BE REPUBLICAN IF, THEN, THE ULTIMATE EXTENSION OF THAT IS IT ENDS UP BEING A ONE-PERSON PARTY.’
