Revision as of 04:08, February 14, 2019

Ralph Northam (b. 1959) is the extreme pro-abort who is the Democrat Governor of Virginia elected in 2017. He has defended infanticide.[1][2] Northam previously served as Lt. Governor to Clinton fundraiser Gov. Terry McAuliffe.


In early February 2019, it was discovered that Northam included a photo on his medical yearbook page of two people posing together, one wearing blackface and another dressed as a KKK member, although Northam implausibly denied that he was one of the two after he admitted to being one of them.[3] Northam tried to excuse his conduct by claiming he dressed up for a Michael Jackson contest, although the photographic clearly shows the hat he was wearing was long long out of style by the 1980s and Michael Jackson is not known to have ever worn such a hat.

After his excuses, 50% of Democrats continued to support Northam.[4]

When the news broke, CNN ran a fake news chyron claiming Northam was a Republican.

In response, racist Democrats then tried to prevent Northam's resignation by exploiting sexual assault allegations against the African American Lt. Governor.[5] Then, the Attorney General who would be third in line of succession revealed that he, too, had also appeared in blackface at a college party in the 1980s.[6]

2017 election

Northam held campaign rallies with Barack Obama[7] and Joe Biden during the general election campaign.[8]

In October 2017, the Northam campaign issued flyers omitting Northam's running-mate for Lieutenant Governor, Justin Fairfax, an African American, while the Democratic nominee for Attorney General and white man, Mark Herring, was included on the flyer.[9][10]

A Northam campaign ad was released in which a pickup truck with bumper sticker for his Republican opponent and a Confederate flag appeared chasing down minority children and cornering them in an alley – one of the children in the ad then wakes up, revealing the scene to have been a nightmare.[11][12] Northam defended the ad saying Gillespie's own ads "have promoted fearmongering, hatred, bigotry, racial divisiveness."[13][14] The ad was pulled the following day in the hours after the terrorist attack in New York City, in which an immigrant killed several people by running them over with a truck.[15] An ISIS flag]] and a document indicating allegiance to the terrorist group Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) were found in the truck.[16]
