Glen Trumpkin...err Youngkin is the fascist national Retrumplicans dream about.
If you wondered why EVERY fucking Retrumplican, from Presidential candidate to dogcatcher, suddenly started attacking the LGBTQ community, African American history, or "woke" businesses, look no further than the 2021 Virginia off year election.
Sure, Mcauliffe ran a "meh" campaign, but, this was mere months after the Retrumplican Party tried to violently overthrow the United States and create their own version of 1931 Germany.
Virginia voters could still smell the smoke, teargas and blood of Jan 6 waifting across the Potomac, yet they went to the polls and elected 3 straight-up fascists to the top 3 statewide offices....and if you think I am being hyperbolic, well, you may know Glen Trumpkin...err Youngkin, but just google our Lt Gov Winsome Earl-Sears and our AG Jason Miyares...STRAIGHT UP FASCISTS
Everything little Ronnie De-Nazi learned, he learned from Glen Youngkin.
- The sweater vest with the name embroidered on it.
- The attacks on non-existent CRT in kindergarten.
- Gender wars.
It all can be traced to this one Virginia election, where the Retrumplicans learned that you can even overcome the shitstain of violent insurrection if you give fascism enough people to hate.
Glen does it better than Ron. See, you can't run as an obvious racist and fascist. Glen and the national Retrumplicans learned that there is enough deep pockets of Civil War/Confederate ideology in the Old Dominion, that all you need to do is mine it.
Then it's easy.
- Racism is disguised as "parental rights".
- Fascism is disguised as "anti-woke".
- Homophobia is disguised as "protecting children in bathrooms"
- Misogyny is disguised as "a reasonable 15 week ban on reproductive health".
Retrumplicans wanted Youngkin to take this "aw shucks" fascism in loafers and a cardigan global.
Thank God Virginia voters sent the message that racism, fascism, misogyny, hatred and white supremacy FAILS, even when dressed as Mister Rogers.
The ONLY reason Virginia hasn't turned into Northern Florida, or Eastern Alabama is because Dems held a slim majority in the state Senate and flipped the Statehouse in November 2023.
Make no mistake, Ron Duh-SANTOS may have been more well known, but Glen is the Nazi the national RETRUMPLICANS dream about.
Defeating Donnie Dipshit in November presents another opportunity to yank it out by the roots before it germinates and spreads further.
