There is desperation in the waning days of a doomed political campaign. And then there is this Terry McAuliffe train wreck.
From the very start of his quest to return to the Virginia governor’s mansion, Mr. McAuliffe has run a tiresome, entitled and uninspiring campaign. Even his supporters cannot help but notice that he seems old, frumpy and unwell. He gets snippy when challenged — as if the whole effort is beneath him.
But nothing prepared Virginia voters for the sordid spectacle they endured during the final weekend of the campaign.
In hopeless desperation, Mr. McAuliffe and Virginia Democrats conspired to concoct a “false flag” operation aimed at smearing Glenn Youngkin as some kind of racist. They got caught red-handed, and it all backfired in an unholy fashion that will come to define the entire McAuliffe campaign — and perhaps the whole Biden presidency.
From the very start, Mr. McAuliffe tried everything the media would allow to avoid running against Mr. Youngkin, a sunny outsider who embodies the best of the Trump agenda minus the “mean Tweets.” His campaign’s insistence on running against former President Donald Trump turned comical when President Biden appeared at a McAuliffe rally and invoked Mr. Trump’s name 28 times during a 15-minute tirade.
It was another sad example of Mr. Biden appearing to have no idea where he was or what he was talking about.
As the effort to paint Mr. Youngkin orange proved futile, Mr. McAuliffe got desperate. And when Democrats get desperate, they always play the race card.
They claimed that Mr. Youngkin is some kind of racist extremist, offering not a shred of evidence to support the crackpot theory.
“Extremism can come in many forms,” Mr. Biden bellowed on behalf of Mr. McAuliffe. “It can come in the rage of a mob driven to assault the Capitol. It can come in a smile and a fleece vest.” It was a bitter slap at Mr. Youngkin, who often wears a vest and is always smiling.
These are the most treacherous people, and they play the most rotten politics — especially when it comes to peddling racial hatred.
Remember, it was Mr. Biden who told Black voters in Virginia back in 2012 that Republicans would “put y’all back in chains” if they did not vote for him. Think about the degree of creepy, racist demagoguery required to make such an unhinged charge.
He lost now move forward VA and time to concentrate on next Nov for USA CONgress and politics on the island.
That 2nd paragraph describes Terry, Hillary, and Brandon.
Now if we can figure out how to stop the rampant election cheating maybe, just maybe, the USA can be saved.
Unfortunately, I think it’s going to take less Republican patience an understanding and more Rittenhouse!
Democrats Hate their Own White Race !!!! FACT & they sell Whites Out to the enemys !!!!!
