President Biden has upgraded Va. Gov. Ralph Northam from racist who 'should resign immediately' to 'pal'

In 2019, Joe Biden called on Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam to resign in the wake of the “black face” photos that surfaced:

There is no place for racism in America. Governor Northam has lost all moral authority and should resign immediately, Justin Fairfax is the leader Virginia needs now.

It looks like the Virginia governor has successfully completed his rehab, because at yesterday’s rally in Arlington, President Biden elevated Northam back to “pal” status:
