@Sanguine
@Amb. Frank Cannon

They don’t.  There have been plenty of black Dems on our local news, gushing that he’s a wonderful man and should be given another chance.

@QueenCatofAragon

Really? I haven't seen or heard a single one mentioned nationally. I guess the Network News dictators decided this wasn't worth mentioning outside of Va.

Next on "Deface the Nation", the Governor of Virginia moonwalks, while the Lt. Governor sings, "Billie Jean".

At this point, I believe Northam will hold on, but that Fairfax will soon be gone...

I hope that weasel does  hold on because of the future damage it may do to the Dim Party.

Just imagine what effect it could have on the black vote in 2018 and 2020 if Northam is allowed to stay in office and the two black Dims immediately under him are forced to resign.

How does switching parties save him from anything? The people who voted for him will still hate him.

It's very simple:  if he switches parties, then the media will conveniently forget that he was ever a Democrat and will start four-walling the airwaves with talk about the black-face-wearing, racist Republican Governor of Virginia, thereby making him a hero to the Democrats who need the "Republican = racist" lie to keep their electoral chances alive nationwide (since once racial and ethnic minorities notice that it's false the Democrats are sunk).
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

What I don't understand is why putting on a black face is so bad. I know all the sjw's say it is but
why? Plus he did that a long long time ago. I just don't get why this is such a big deal. Curious is
it also bad to put on a white face?
I can see the headline now:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Dunno. I'm not a mime.

If you asked one, they wouldn't likely say anything.
