when joe biden as a candidate went to the microphones and said i m not for defunding the police. he made sure that didn t stick to him. was mcauliffe agile and deft again, republican disinformation is never the democratic side s fault but it is the landscape on which republican campaigns are waged right now. that is the sad reality. i wonder if the fact that voter after voter at youngkin rallies says i m here because of his stance on critical race theory. it s like me banning the ghosts from the set. there aren t any ghosts, i can ban them. he s for banning something that is not taught in the classroom and it s bringing him 1,000 people to loudoun county a day before election day. did the other side push back against the lie and the attack effectively enough? well, i think what is really going on here is no matter whether it was critical race theory or another cultural issue, the republicans are only campaigning on cultural issues
