Virginia Democrat Terry McAuliffe (D) is experiencing a wave of mockery on social media over a viral photo showing five individuals claiming to be supporters of his Republican challenger Glenn Youngkin, holding tiki torches outside of a campaign bus — an obvious nod to Charlottesville and white supremacy — as many surmise it is nothing more than a stunt by the Democrat’s supporters days before Election Day.

I don't know that he fell for it so much as he's trying to help set the narrative, spread it and get it to stick. There are a LOT of stupid people that follow (D) politicians and will believe EVERYTHING they say without question or thought. Hook, line and leaded sinker.
OMG! I live in a neighborhood of white supremicists and didn’t even know it.
I was down to the beach the one night a few weeks ago and there were tiki torches, lit and everything. The neighbors were there drinking some witch’s brew of alcohol and fruit juice too!
No, the black dude was there for realism. What self respecting white supremacists would show in public without their personal slave? Lol
Looks like they found the black “white supremacist”
and his account is also locked

“Have you no shame. Sir?”
Lol, it’s Clinton lackey Terry McCauliff.
Perhaps he self identifies as a white supremacists.
B.t.w. this genius identifies all the political actors as "men."
These men approached @GlennYoungkin’s bus as it pulled up saying what sounded like, “We’re all in for Glenn.” Here they are standing in front of the bus as his campaign event at Guadalajara started.@NBC29 pic.twitter.com/l681ejyBjc— Elizabeth Holmes (@holmes_reports) October 29, 2021
So when the whole thing backfired and blew up into high comedy, the Lincoln Project comes in to save the day. "Don't worry Terry. We'll take the heat off you. We'll say we did it."
That’s some set of hips you have there, “bro”
Alinsky was a Red Diaper Baby.
After the “KKK” showing up in Charlottesville rally, I did some research reading the local papers.
Several of the people interviewed said the KKK guys got off the same bus as the as Anti-Fa!
This was the first time I noticed the left setting up a social incident lie. They have continued since then.
Wonder how many I missed before it.
McAwful hired Marc Elias.
That’s his specialty!
LOL! Thanks for the photo.
The Lincoln Project has issued a statement claiming responsibility for this stunt.
STATEMENT FROM THE LINCOLN PROJECT
October 29, 2021 — Today, The Lincoln Project released the following statement:
“Glenn Younkin has said: ‘President Trump represents so much of why I am running.’ Youngkin proves it every day by trying to divide Virginians using racial code words like Critical Race Theory and supporting a ban on teaching the works of America’s only Black Nobel laureate.
“The Lincoln Project has run advertisements highlighting the hate unleashed in Charlottesville as well as Glenn Youngkin’s continued failure to denounce Donald Trump’s ‘very fine people on both sides.’ We will continue to draw this contrast in broadcast videos, on our social media platforms, and at Youngkin rallies.
“Today’s demonstration was our way of reminding Virginians what happened in Charlottesville four years ago, the Republican Party’s embrace of those values, and Glenn Youngkin’s failure to condemn it.
“The Youngkin campaign is enraged by our reminder of Charlottesville for one simple reason: Glenn Youngkin wants Virginians to forget that he is Donald Trump’s candidate.
“We will continue to hold Glenn Youngkin accountable. If he will denounce Trump’s assertion that the Charlottesville rioters possessed ‘very fine’ qualities, we’ll withdraw the tiki torches. Until then, we’ll be back.”
