Think about what the former president seems to be saying: the cold war resulted from a persistent psychological quirk of Republicans, a need for an object of hatred. Nothing in the nature or conduct of the Soviet Union provoked the hatred of cold warriors, just as nothing in his own behavior might have aroused his opponents’ disgust.
That's a pretty cogent take.
