When a politician compromises himself completely and betrays his country, he has to have something he can cling to in order to make himself seem respectable to himself and others. For Bush, salvation comes by way of condemning racism.
During his talk at Gerald Ford’s funeral, Bush talked about racism. He said that racism was “the worst possible thing.” Why would someone bring up the subject of racism at a funeral? He had a nationwide, if not worldwide, audience. He wanted to parade his righteousness. It is an easy, convenient righteousness. It does not require any action, does not require any effort or discipline.

Very astute observation.
I've noticed that the modern conservative movement's one unifying goal is to hunt down and stamp out white people's racism everywhere in the world. It's become a grotesque crusade.
These bastards will surrender every policy battle to the Left as long as they can fight against white people being racist.
Ben Shapiro said in an interview that whenever a person is discovered to be racist, they should be destroyed. He said they should lose their reputations, careers, everything.
This is the modern Conservative movement. Neverending persecution of white people to toe the line of the race narrative.
They have completely failed to beat the Left at anything for decades. They haven't conserved the American nation, economy, culture, security, or even women's bathrooms.
So now they've accepted another premise of the Left, again, and smear white people.
Thanks Conservatives.
