[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]It is interesting to see that the Republicans here are more outraged by fake white supremacists than they are by the real white supremacists that support Youngkin. I guess you guys just prefer the real thing.

I haven't spotted any "White Supremacists for Youngkin" signs in Virginia.  Do you have them in DC?  If so, they may have been placed there by the Lincoln Project.  Do be fooled by them.[/quote]

You must have missed the rally that Steve Bannon held recently in support of Youngkin.

There is zero connection between Bannon and Youngkin.  Bannon can hold rallies for whomever he likes - Youngkin wasn't there and wasn't involved.  He also said this:

"I wasn't involved, so I don't know. But if that was the case, then we shouldn't pledge allegiance to that flag," Youngkin said. "And by the way, I've been so clear there is no place for violence — none, none — in America today. We have our rights to assemble and protest protected ... but there is no room for violence."

Later, in a statement, Youngkin said it was "weird and wrong to pledge allegiance to a flag connected to January 6" and said the violence during the pro-Trump riot was "sickening and wrong."

Youngkin steered clear of the Bannon rally, where one of the speakers was controversial state Sen. Amanda Chase, a prominent promoter of election fraud conspiracy theories who supports him and lost in the Republican primary.

"The only chief surrogate for Glenn Youngkin is Glenn Youngkin," he said of himself when asked about Chase's presence at the event.

And while Youngkin has promised to enhance election security, he disavowed Trump's lies about the 2020 campaign.

"I've been very, very clear from the beginning that I don't think that there was massive fraud in Virginia in the campaign and that Joe Biden was legitimately elected our president," he said.
