The front-runner for the Republican nomination in Virginia’s closely watched governor’s race is expressing discomfort with series of vulgar and predatory comments about women President Donald Trump made in a recording 12 years ago.

Ed Gillespie said at a Republican debate Saturday in Goochland that he was offended by comments from a 2005 Access Hollywood tape in which Trump boasted about groping women.

Two others, Corey Stewart and Frank Wagner.

I’m voting for Corey Stewart, he has been standing up for the citizens and the rule of law for years.

Both parties in Virginia have a lot of people from outside of the state in them. Once they get in they promote their own it seems. They aren’t as conservative as the natives many times. I’m involved some within the GOP.It sure looks likes it orchestrated to drive the natives out. Is the Fed govt involved ? I really think the tentacles of control within our politics is coming from Fed operations. If Virginians want to control their state they need to get more involved in the process.

LOL - O'Reilly, Ailes, Huckabee, Rove, Beckel, Eugene Pallette, et al.

I didn't have any of those people in mind when I said that. I was thinking of people I personally know and personally know they are liars.

However, now that you mention it, of those you listed I can see Rove and Beckel fitting that description.

I’m not going to support him. Having this rino become govt will be a negative for the state imo. I hope the dem wins if he is the GOP candidate. I will vote for John Adam’s for AG. If Glenn Davis is the LG candidate I ‘ll vote for him. If he isn’t I won’t vote for the GOP there.

One of the best things the founders of Virginia left to us is one term Governors.

Gillespie’s a RINO; I’m happy with either rendering.

Maybe the Iranians should perform a
sodomy test on him.

My solution is to retire back to WV!
WV seems to be going GOP while VA seems to be going the opposite.

Yes there is Manchin but my brother tells a lot of Mountaineers are getting tired of his antics.

Anyone who has been in Army basic training and beyond, in an athletic locker room, in a tavern imbibing beer, anyplace men hang out and hasn’t heard some of that talk is not being truthful. Did everyone speak that way? No, not at all. But it was common to hear it from some. If you didn’t want to hear it, you moved away or went somewhere else. Few cared.

Mr. Gillespie is a RINO, panty waste, and from Goochville.
And, per the quote above, a flat out liar and phony.

Why can’t these damn Republicans be loyal to the President who gave them and the country one last chance to get it right. I’m sick of back stabbing Republicans. They don’t know how to be winners when they win.

Gillespie is an “Ex-Democrat”.

I remember him saying a decade back that there wasn’t anything particularly wrong with big government.

Total RINO hack.

[Why even bring it up?]

Because undoubtedly like a typical RINO he has the GOP consultant class stooges advising him on how to lose the election properly.
