Please save us from the political commercials-- Glen Younbkin running for VA Gov

Political commercials are always bad, but this guy's are the worst. His "poor me" commercials are laughable. His net worth is over $450M. He should spare everyone + give to charity instead of pouring $$$ down the toilet. He is a Trumpster.

He also refuses to debate

He has no chance. Does it really matter?

I hate political commercials as well.

Currently being pestered with McAuliffe commercials but I doubt Youngkin's are any less grating.

Love him. I think there is going to be an upset in this race.

Yeah I actually love his ads, he comes across as a super likeable guy, and the messaging is great for independents like me.

Sure, it's easy to like mom-and-apple-pie ads that only focus on things everyone wants--the American dream, jobs, and better education for kids. But pay close attention to what he doesn't say--what is his position on taxes? abortion? Mask-wearing/COVID? Climate change? Guns? Crime? From watching his ads, you have no idea.

He started out broke AF in life and is now worth half a billion dollars.


What have YOU done with your life?

No it won't. Parts of Jennifer Rubin's OpEd:

"His one policy plank to date is a voting-restriction measure in the mode of other Jim Crow-style laws that Republicans are pushing based on the “big lie” that voting fraud lifted Biden into office. He has also let on that he is hard-liner on abortion, a position at odds with the commonwealth’s increasingly blue voters. In a video released last week, Youngkin essentially admitted he had to hide his true views to get elected. “When I’m governor and I have a majority in the House we can start going on offense,” Youngkin said. “But as a campaign topic, sadly, that in fact won’t win my independent votes that I have to get.”


Now, he is refusing to debate Democratic nominee and former governor Terry McAuliffe, with the bogus excuse that PBS host Judy Woodruff — who has moderated multiple presidential debates — is biased. If “bias” means “likely to ask uncomfortable questions that will expose his true views,” he may have a point."

"A desperate Youngkin has now resorted to claiming that Virginia’s economy is in peril. A small problem: For the second time in a row, CNBC this year rated Virginia as the best state in the country to do business. (The network skipped rankings last year because of the pandemic, but Virginia received the same ranking in 2019.) Moreover, he has not revealed what exactly he is going to do to make the economy even better."

All they have to ask is whether Trump won the election. When he says yes, that will be it.

What? No. Youngkin’s dad worked in accounting and finance and he went to private school. Be less gullible.

He went to Norfolk Academy which was pretty elite when I lived there. It was definitely a rich kid school

He'll win because anyone can read into him what they want. He can be a moderate in NOVA and a trump endorsed candidate in southwestern va. He's being very careful to not take a stance on anything
