this thread is about Northam.
I don't want to derail this thread, but it's absolutely false that Christine Blasey Ford "admitted she lied."

In any case, GOPers need to step off this thread and go worry about getting racist Steve King to resign, because it's pure hypocrisy for them to pretend that they care about Northam's photo other than as political fodder. Democrats are telling Northam to resign, unlike Republicans do when their own are racist.

^Exactly this.

Roy Moore, Steve King, etc. The GOP tends to defend their own creeps.

Poll is totally dishonest. Lots of Dems in VA and elsewhere have come out saying he needs to resign.

Part of me thinks he's wearing the hood, too, for the reasons in bold. But let's think about that. He's in a position where someone wering blackface is the less offensive of two things. He's got to go

He might have wanted to reenact the 1924 Democratic convention, which was also referred to as the "Klanbake".

Robert Byrd would have been proud of him.
