He’s toast.

The Rats are not going to go to the mat for him, with an African-American Lieutenant Governor waiting in the wings.

Republicans in Virginia said Northam should step down if he’s in the photo.

“Racism has no place in Virginia,” Republican Party of Virginia chairman Jack Wilson said in a statement. “These pictures are wholly inappropriate. If Gov. Northam appeared in blackface or dressed in a KKK robe, he should resign immediately.”

Was he a KKK "Grand Kleagle", like demonrat Senator Byrdie was?

It wasn’t just a photo, it was a yearbook photo.
And not a High School yearbook, like Kavanaugh, but a Medical School yearbook.

I think he’s half crazy. But he’ll get away with it bc he will say that by his leftwing policies, he is showing how much he has grown and changed and that they benefit black people. Of course, how children of any color, are benefitted by a crazy policy that allows them to be killed at birth, is a bit beyond me.

F You, Jack, you knew this was there before the election and you did nothing. Thanks to you, now all you get is an even more liberal governor.

Blackface and Klan robes, a Democrat tradition since 1870.

The Lt Governor to replace him is black. I doubt the party will let him stay.

It gets worse. According to the yearbook page, he drank beer. We all know what that means.

He has to resign.

Not a chance. He's a democRat. Robert Byrd (D-KKK) was an actual member of the Klan, used the forbidden word on a cable news program twice, and got off with an apology. Bill Clinton was photographed on stage wearing an afro wig, and no one cares. Creepy Uncle Joe said Obama was the first African American who was articulate and bright, and Harry Reid talked about Obama's "Negro dialect". An LA Times reporter said Obama was a "magic Negro".

A Republican will be lynched for even the slightest racial faux pas, a democRat will be forgiven for much worse.

It exposes the lie of “a woman’s body” because the infant is out of the womb when the decision is made to snuff it “because I want to”.

No no no, times are changing.

We’ve got a fighter in the White House, and we aren’t taking things sitting down anymore.

They wanted war, they got it.

1984? About twenty years after such a photo would have been considered humor at any college or post graduate institution. Amazing it got into print for a med school yearbook.
