McAuliffe shrugged off Virginia gov’s racism scandal after pushing resignation

Months after calling on Democratic Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam to resign over a racist photo in his medical school yearbook, the commonwealth’s current Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Terry McAuliffe, dismissed it as “a dumb mistake 40 years ago” and tried to claim that Northam was not in the picture, CNN reported Friday.

In February 2019, Northam’s page in the 1984 edition of Eastern Virginia Medical School’s yearbook resurfaced. Included among the images on the page were a photo of a man in a Ku Klux Klan hood standing next to another man in blackface.

Northam initially apologized when the photo was published by the Virginian-Pilot newspaper, though he rejected calls to resign.

A day later, however, Northam held a bizarre news conference in which he suggested he was not in the photo — though he did admit to putting dark shoe polish on his face for a talent show in which he impersonated Michael Jackson.

  1. Bob Aswell.....Realist

    Would it split the Earth into if a Democrat admitted guilt in ANY arena? They REALLY STREACH the adage of ‘ Let
    he that is perfect cast the first stone’. According to them, ‘A Republican is the vilest creature on this planet’. Yet, they consider complete moral disregard of which they are constantly guilty, an indiscretion. I wish I could be there in the judgement of Schummer, Biden, Pelosi, and the other misfits when God commits them to the lowest reaches of Hell. At that time, THEIR INDESCRETIONS such as abortion, political assasinations, and general thievery, and their narccissm will be presented as the evidence. Have a good time NOW BOYS because payday
    is on the horizion.
