NBC News Scandal Blames Trump for Virginia Scandal

An NBC News panel recently decided to blame President Trump for creating Virginia Governor Ralph Northam’s racism scandal.

According to Fox News:

Last Friday, Northam’s 1984 medical school yearbook entry went viral because it featured an image of a man in blackface with a man in a KKK hood and robe. The Democrat initially accepted responsibility and offered an apology. He then reversed course and claimed he did believe that the controversial image featured him at all. And during a press conference, he did admit to using blackface while dressing up as Michael Jackson.

…

Princeton University Professor Eddie Glaude Jr. responded by tying Northam’s scandal to the president.

“I think it has something to do with what Donald Trump has unleashed. It has something to do with the reservoir that’s underneath our politics that can always be activated at any moment,” Glaude Jr. explained. “So it’s not like it’s something new has happened. It’s always underneath. It’s the undertow.”

“You know, young children of color are dealing with kids saying, “‘Build the wall,’” Maxwell told the panel. “Donald Trump has normalized this overt display of racism.”

Trump has condemned the actions of the governor and called on his actions “unforgivable”.
