Glenn Youngkin, who was never a “moderate” or “normie” Republican as the broken, stenographic political media in this country falsely made him out to be (if you watched him from thew beginning of his 2021 gubernatorial campaign, such as in Republican debates/forums, you would have known that, but these lazy “journalists” apparently didn’t want to do that and/or didn’t give a f***?). But the striking thing is how Youngkin’s gone further and further right, along the radicalization pipeline we’ve seen with so many Republicans since Trump came onto the scene. It’s almost like Trump gives Republicans like Youngkin permission to let their inner crazy, their worst selves, fully and proudly come out to the world. Also, of course, there’s political calculation here on Youngkin’s part, as he desperately wants to get back in the political game, maybe even be president some day, and knows that in a radicalized, Trumpian, far-right-extremist Republican Party, he’s got to at least PRETEND to be as crazy, far-right and extremist as his competitors. Which leads Youngkin to say insane shit like the following, on this “we’re just gonna out-breed the left” guy’s show no less…
“Abigail Spanberger and leadership knew they were violating the Constitution, if you put them under oath and force them to answer it, they would say yes.” “You put your hand on the Holy Bible and you swore to Support the Constitution and you knowingly violated it.” “I think that is absolutely cause for a RE-VOTE of the original election. They have disqualified themselves to serve.”
I mean, just What. The. F***??? And why? So Youngkin can finish fifth or sixth in Iowa in 2028? Of course, with the compliant, “access journalism” political media continuing to normalize and “sanewash” this nutjob, Youngkin has a major ally in his corner. Which tells you all you need to know – all very bad! – about the “mainstream” political media these days, of course…
