Youngkin To Campaign For Maine Racist Paul LePage
September 5, 2022

The Washington Post reports:

Gov. Glenn Youngkin plans to travel to Maine this week to campaign for Republican gubernatorial candidate Paul LePage, a former two-term governor with a history of making racially incendiary remarks.

A proudly unvarnished politician who has claimed that he was “Donald Trump before Donald Trump,” LePage caused his most notable uproar in 2016, midway through his second term, with a series of comments about race and drug dealing.

LePage claimed — falsely — that more than 90 percent of people arrested for drug-trafficking in the overwhelmingly White state of Maine were Black or Hispanic. He also called Black and Hispanic people “the enemy” and said that many out-of-state drug traffickers passing through Maine “impregnate a young White girl before they leave.”

Read the full article. Youngkin claims to be unaware of LePage’s long and heavily documented history of racist remarks.

1. Because Mainers care so much about what Virginia's governor has to say?

2. Bumpkin needs to have his ass set on fire

His underage son tried twice to vote for daddy. No repercussions.
CRT was Bumpkin's racist dog whistle. None of them can explain it.
IIRC he had a publishing company that publishes books beneficial to Death Sentence's forced Christianity textbooks.
Oh and the kids and unnecessary dental procedures.
