Easy. "I think we need better cooperation and communication..."

That comment was tone-deaf. Completely tone-deaf to the whole situation and Youngkin pounced. He didn't need to make it so blatant. He could have easily turned it around and made a point about the need to lower the temperature and he didn't.
And it's not a blanket issue. I live in Utah. Land of the Mormons. My mom had to go to the school when I was in elementary school because the teachings in one of my classes was obscenely pro-LDS and dismissive toward other religious groups within the classroom. By Terry's own admission, she should just shut up.
That isn't going to win over anyone and it shows how complex the issue is.
