During last night’s Virginia gubernatorial debate between Dem Terry McAuliffe and Republican Glenn Youngkin, McAuliffe noted the support of Bill Kristol, “the leading conservative in American”:

Matt Wolking, comms director for Youngkin, says the entire team “busted out laughing” when he brought this up:

It’s a mystery:

And does McAuliffe think this will actually help him? Bernie supporter Melissa Byrne, for example, wasn’t happy:
