“As late as 1976,” the Post said, “the New York Times noted that the Chevy Chase Club golf course and country club … whose members include Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh and Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. — allowed ‘black skinned members of the diplomatic corps’ but not black Americans, inside its doors.”
But in 1976, neither Roberts nor Kavanaugh belonged to the club or lived in Washington. Kavanaugh, then aged 11, lived with his parents in Maryland. Neither lived in Chevy Chase until it became a heavily liberal enclave.
Today’s Chevy Chase gave 90 percent of its vote in 2016 to Hillary Clinton, and shed bitter tears when she lost. You’d never learn this from the Post, which was happy enough with its snide little reference. And most of the paper was more of the same.
