So? Everything you detail here is absolutely true. If you’re too blind to recognize that, there is not much someone can say to you.

Which returns us to the reality that this is mcauliffe vs. Trump or whomever vs. trump.

Youngkin is no Trump no matter how many times you say it.

Youngkin is not Trump but he has worked hard to get that Trump endorsement - pushing The Big Lie with his “election integrity” top priority.

He’s a polished Trump.

Hard pass.

Polished or not he is getting all the same voters that adore the jackass from queens.

They may have been too intimidated or too embarrassed to put up Trump signs in their yard, and they may be empowered to rally for a "moderate" (cough, cough) candidate. But they lost Virginia in 2020, and they will lose again now. There are more of us than of them. They are just louder.

Maybe there are, maybe there aren't. Youngkin's rallies are well attended.

As for whether Youngkin is polished, he certainly seems more comfortable in front of an audience than McAuliffe, who has about the same enthusiasm for retail politics as Hillary Clinton and would obviously prefer to be cutting back-room deals.

I just came from California, gas is $5.18, under the Trump gas was $1.80. Things were indeed better with Trump.

More enthusiasm doesn’t necessarily mean more voters. We saw that in 2020. Republicans seem to love their rallies these days. I think a lot of people who don’t vote Republican just kind of quietly go about their day and vote blue. Anger is probably a better word than enthusiasm. Lots of that among right wingers in VA.

Hillary won Virginia by a couple hundred thousand votes.

That's hilarious. Gas was never $1.80 under Trump. It hasn't been $1.80 for about 15 years. Have you been under Trump for that long?

If only presidents were elected by the popular vote in Virginia, the glass ceiling in the Javits center would have been shattered.

So gas prices are your measure? Maybe "reality" isn't the only issue here...

I thank God every morning that I turn on the radio and hear the words "President Biden."

Again, so what? I agree that things were better under Trump- inflation, border security, national security in general. Not that that matters in this race, but I’m encouraged that it looks like Virginia may actually swing red this year. Nice set up for 2022

[Anonymous]

I really don’t care for Trump, and Biden is a full on dumpster fire, but I’m voting Youngkin because the extreme left needs to get pulled back. The thread about NPR a while ago pretty much summarized my sentiments (that tribal grievance politics are dominating everything).
