It’s now unclear to me whether these people were presenting themselves as actual KKK members or sympathizers, or were just trying to suggest that real KKK members would support Youngkin, and were just making a statement to that effect. Either way, it was sleazy.
Of course it was sleazy but I would expect nothing less from a desperate McAuliffe campaign. Later today they'll probably try to tie Youngkin to the Kennedy assassination.
One more thing.... if McAuliffe wins (and I pray to God that does not happen) the Dems will crow that it is an affirmation of Biden and Dem policies.
If Youngkin wins, the Dem mouthpieces will dismiss it as an aberration with no wider meaning to the electorate.
The play that was staged in Charlottesville was produced by McAwful to paint anyone standing up for American history as a racist.
It was completely a false flag political theater.
This stunt was trying to leverage off of that hoax.
They tried to pass it off as real at first. In fact, a senior McAuliffe campaign official called the event "disqualifying" for Youngkin.
The Lincoln Project retweeted another tweet buying the authenticity of these Youngkin "supporters".
Only after the whole thing blew up, did the Lincoln Project admit it was all theater. Personally, I don't think the Lincoln Project had anything to do with it. All the "actors" were quickly doxxed as Democrat party activists. Lincoln Project was just trying to take the heat off McAuliffe.
