Virginia Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam apologized Friday for appearing in a “racist and offensive” photo on his 1984 medical school yearbook page that showed one man dressed in blackface and another in a KKK robe.

Northam – who has been under fire this week for comments made about a third-trimester abortion bill in his state – admitted to being one of the people in the photo, though it’s not clear which costume he is wearing.

“Earlier today, a website published a photograph of me from my 1984 medical school yearbook in a costume that is clearly racist and offensive,” Northam said in a statement.

He added, “I am deeply sorry for the decision I made to appear as I did in this photo and for the hurt that decision caused then and now.”

Keep him in office, explaining why he received $2M in campaign contributions from an entity funded by the government to the tune of $1.5B

It wasn’t just a photo, it was a yearbook photo. His stunt want just collecting dust in somebody’s drawer (like the photos of Barack Obama smoking pot).

People knew about his. But as with Harvey Weinstein and Hillary Clinton, they keep secrets because they like the politics.

Ask Kavanaugh how he was treated when the media went back to search his HIGH SCHOOL yearbook.

Then treat the gov. the same way.

Of course, the media won’t do that.

Pretty despicable. He was 25 years old too. not 8, 9, or 10. He definitely should resign.

So he’s a baby killer racist.

He’s a fully qualified 2020 democrat presidential candidate.

I wonder which newspaper or network today we can find the editor who thought it was good form to permit that in the graduates’ yearbooks.

A baby butchering racist. Perfect for the Democratic governor of the commonwealth formerly known as Virginia.
