But when one of their own does it, it's like..... "nothing to see here".
Trump promoted the racist birther theory this decade and he's still here.

i guess it's been a foregone conclusion that northam is staying on, but anyway..

Was it Gov. Northam in racist yearbook photo? Investigation results released

Quote:
An investigation into who was in the racist photo on Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s 1984 Eastern Virginia Medical School yearbook page was unable to determine the identity of those involved, the law firm handling the investigation said Wednesday.

The investigation was also unable to determine how the picture — which shows a man in blackface standing next to someone in Ku Klux Klan clothing — got on Northam’s page to begin with but did not find any evidence that it was placed there by mistake.

There is another picture of him looking like Napoleon Dynamite, wearing the same plaid pants as the blackface character.
He cannot deny it.

And if he was a Republican, we'd still be hearing daily about how he's still in office.

And I have never seen or heard a single Trump supporter admit that Trump was wrong to push that racist "birther" crap. Not one. Talk about hypocrites.

????????


Trump was legitimately questioning the birthplace of a guy who claimed to be a "foreign student" to gain scholarships and was economically supported by rather dubious entities from the Middle East. To this day, no one knows the economic and political ties of Obama to our enemies.


On the other hand, you had the governor of VA wearing blackface.


Give me a break. It is like when dems claim equivalence of Trump "talking dirty" to Clinton taking trips with Dershowitz to a pedophile's private island to rape teenage girls.

Just look at San Francisco if you want a true picture of the hypocrisy of Democrats. Most of the wealth is held by whites and asians and there is no place worse to be a minority and be poor. No place.

Except, oops, no, the birther thing started with a Republican

https://www.politico.com/story/2016/...clinton-228304

And continued to be amplified by Republicans, long after Obama had released his birth certificate and long after even fringe Democrats (disowned by the Clinton campaign) had stopped talking about it

BS. Trump kept pushing the birther lie long after it had been exposed as a fraud. And if Trump thought it was a legitimate inquiry why did he lie about having investigators in Hawaii finding proof of Obama's phony citizenship? Remember when he said that his investigators "couldn't believe what they're finding"? And what exactly is it that his investigators "couldn't believe what they're finding"? Obviously you can't say.
