[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, let's please have a serious thread about all of the Democrat scandals and then we can compare them to the GOP scandals. Don't forget Gov. Cuomo. I don't think this will have the impact OP things it will. The difference being, when a Dem has a scandal, there aren't a bunch of rubes blindly defending and sticking up for them.[/quote] Complete BS. When photos of Gov Northam appeared in blackface, nothing happened. When his LT Governor was accused by not one but two women of sexual assault on the heels of the Me Too movement, nothing was done. Crickets. Barely any news coverage. Where were all the Dems demanding they step down? Give me a break. Plenty of rubes to go around.[/quote] [b]This is not correct on any level. [/quote] How so? What part is false?[/quote] DP. Every part is false. There was massive news coverage and tons of Democrats asked Northam to step down. Former Democratic governors, both current Democratic Senators, the Democratic Party of Virginia, a long list of candidates who were running for the Democratic presidential nomination, the Democratic House Speaker and on and on. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/02/03/politics/ralph-northam-virginia-resignation/index.html There’s a similarly long list of Democrats who called on Fairfax to resign as well. https://www.businessinsider.com/democrats-are-calling-on-justin-fairfax-to-resign-2019-2?amp They just… didn’t. Just like so many of the officials in GOP scandals thread. [/quote] DP. And, then they were pretty silent when Fairfax ran for governor. Did the Democrats speak out then? I agree that many spoke out at the time. But, then when none of the people in question stepped down, we got radio silence from the Dems. [/quote] Northam stayed despite many, many people calling for his resignation. And he went on to be a very good governor. Fairfax also stayed but sort of faded into the background. I think his political career is largely over. But, he also did call for a full investigation of the claims, rather than the more limited review the women were asking for. Since there was no agreement, that never happened. Other than calling for resignations, should D's have stormed the Capital and physically removed them??? I'm not sure what you are saying should have happened here?[/quote]
