A tweet from the Virginia Democrats was called to our attention this morning, and it promotes a speaker for the party’s “virtual convention” coming up soon:

Yep, that’s really something, especially considering what that same organization said just last year. How’s this for a shot & chaser?

The shot, from February of last year:

And the chaser, this week:

Wow.
So when you said that you demand that he resign immediately, you were just kidding?

I mean just so we’re all clear here: everything from college mascots to syrup logos are being cancelled because Black Lives Matter and the @vademocrats are honored to welcome a guy who made a hobby out of wearing blackface, and our media is *DEAD* silent on it. https://t.co/Jz0dsvHqHo

Wait, this is the guy you called on to resign, right? Or is that a different governor? https://t.co/o6iY3Mhyco
