Virginia’s losing Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe said in his concession statement that: “While there will be setbacks along the way, I am confident that the long term path of Virginia is toward inclusion, openness and tolerance for all.”
Wait, just who is intolerant here? The state just elected a female African-American lieutenant governor and a Cuban-American state attorney general. The outgoing governor and state attorney general wore blackface! The governor’s nickname used to be “coonman”! Ralph Northam couldn’t explain how the picture of someone — perhaps him — in Klan garb appeared in his yearbook!
What, is McAuliffe afraid the Lincoln Project is going to hold more faux-rallies of tiki-torch-bearing white nationalists?
You know what this kind of reflexive, dishonest, and unchallenged labeling of Republicans makes me want to say? Let’s go, Brandon. Sorry, Kevin.
