In reply to the discussion: I am fucking amazed that there are people still defending Northam after that press conference. [View all]Oneironaut
(5,492 posts)37. Democrats are being played for fools once again.
When Northam resigns, theyll go gunning for Fairfax. This is a coordinated effort by anti-abortion extremists. Dont believe me? Just watch. Within a month (or short time) of Northams resignation, something will be dug up from Fairfaxs past. There will calls to resign - especially from Democrats.
The issue isnt how evil blackface is. Its that this is a soft coup by extremists who will stop at no cost to get in power. Proceed at your own peril - this is more than a racist yearbook picture and career-ending press conference.
