The blasé response to the revelation that Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse belonged to a private "Whites only" club and even owned a stake in it, should come as no surprise.
Whitehouse confused the issue last week when asked about his membership in Bailey's Beach Club and its alleged all-white membership, saying: "I think the people who are running the place are still working on that and I'm sorry it hasn't happened yet."
Whitehouse, like so many Democrats, portrays himself as a staunch anti-racist, as he did recently during a Senate "Moment of silence" to commemorate the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor: "We can and must do better to root out systemic racism in its many forms and meet America's full promise of justice for all."
Democrats belonging to racially exclusive clubs, real racism? Pass.
That no one in his party seems to care much and Whitehouse appears secure in his position tells you a lot about the Democratic Party.
Granted, today's racism of the Democratic Party is of a different kind.
To the extent that the Democratic Party embraces CRT, it inescapably becomes an avowedly Marxist party.
