The anti-Donald Trump group The Lincoln Project took responsibility on Friday for five people appearing with tiki torches at a Charlottesville campaign stop by Virginia’s GOP candidate for governor Glenn Youngkin. The stunt recalled a 2017 rally by white supremacists in Charlottesville that turned deadly when a car driven into a crowd by a self-described neo-Nazi killed a counter-protester.
The group said it hoped to remind Virginians of the event… These people remember are pro Biden domestic terrorists who hate Trump. These folks are the same people who you would find in groups like Antifa, and Black Lives Matter, and wouldn’t be shocked if they belong to these groups. Also wouldn’t be shocked if they were paid off by the current Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe who along with his evil socialist democRATS are bent on taking over the country, and spreading communism. They despise Trump because of what he is about which is what is good for the nation. They want to take us down a path of destruction because they have been sadly brain washed over decades of critical racist theory.

The anti-Donald Trump group The Lincoln Project took credit Friday for five people appearing with tiki torches at a Charlottesville campaign stop by Virginia’s GOP candidate for governor.
All this as Glenn Youngkin surge over Terry McAuliffe in Virginia gov race fuels Dem desperation while these sellouts tried to stave off panic over the Virginia governor’s race on the final day of early voting in a blue-state election now suddenly too close to call.
“Democrats are facing a DISASTER,” the Democratic Governors Association warned in a last-minute fundraising email that pointed to recent polls showing the party’s candidate, former Gov. Terry McAuliffe, falling behind GOP newcomer Glenn Youngkin, just days ahead of the Nov. 2 election. “We can’t let the GOP break the Democratic firewall in Virginia because what happens there will lay the groundwork for 2022,” the message continued. The two candidates’ plans of attack were evident on the campaign trail Saturday.
Youngkin, who has harnessed simmering parental anger over school COVID policies and race-based curriculum battles to gain ground among independent voters and disaffected Democrats, drew hundreds of supporters to a rally in Alexandria, one of the state’s bluest cities. “This is about the values that Virginians hold dear,” the Republican told reporters. “I’ve had more people say, ‘I’ve never voted Republican before and I’m voting for you.’ We’ve got folks streaming across the aisle.”
Meanwhile, McAuliffe tried to shore up his base in Norfolk, where only 40 people turned up for a rally headlined by Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine. “As of this morning, we have had over a million early votes,” McAuliffe reassured the sparse crowd. “We are substantially leading in the early vote.” But with a long history of heavy Republican turnout on Election Day, the stark enthusiasm gap between the two parties is looming large.
President Biden won the Old Dominion in 2020 by cheating his way to a comfortable 10-point margin, thanks largely to the densely populated, and lots of help from people paid off to help him rig the 2020 election as we now know the entire Biden Administration is a joke and it’s now. The strongly Democratic counties that hug the state’s border with Washington, DC. is said that his victory capped a 16-year streak for Democrats there. Not since 2004 has a Republican presidential candidate taken Virginia.
McAuliffe, a longtime Dem insider who has been a close confidant of Bill and Hillary Clinton and served as Virginia’s governor from 2014 to 2018, once appeared to be a shoo-in for a second term.
But Biden’s steeply declining approval rating has depressed the Democratic base. A Washington Post poll this week found 42 percent of Virginia voters strongly disapprove of the president’s performance while just 21 percent strongly approve. Such a lopsided result usually translates into heavy turnout for the opposing party.
And McAuliffe’s own gaffes notably his September comment, “I don’t think parents should be telling schools what they should teach” — have been seized by the Youngkin campaign as prime examples of the Democrat’s distance from voters’ concerns. School board meetings in the Democratic strongholds of Fairfax County and Loudoun County have made national headlines, as parents protested policies they say are indoctrinating their children with the tenets of critical race theory.
Youngkin notched an eight-point advantage over McAuliffe among likely voters in a Fox News survey released Thursday that showed the Republican leading 53-45. Other polls this week indicated the two are neck-and-neck.
