K-12 IMPLOSION UPDATE: Reporter Just Embarrasses Terry McAuliffe During Heated Exchange on Critical Race Theory.
When [reporter Anita] Blanton questioned McAuliffe about CRT, he called it a “dog whistle” that’s dividing people but wouldn’t define what he believes it means.
“Anita, it is not taught here in Virginia,” McAuliffe said.
“But how do you define it?” Blanton pressed.
“Doesn’t matter. It’s not taught here in Virginia. So I’m not going to spend my time. I’m not going to even spend my time because the school board and everyone else says it’s not taught. It’s racist. It’s a dog whistle,” McAuliffe said.
“But if we don’t have a definition, how can we say it’s racist?” Blanton pressed again.
McAulliffe never did define it.
“McAuliffe is behaving like a guy who is on the ropes in this campaign, not someone who was ahead by a polling average of between 4 and 5 points before last Tuesday’s debate. It’s been a remarkable turn of events in a short amount of time, and with just a few weeks to go between now and Election Day, if he doesn’t get it together he may be in for a big surprise on November 2nd.”
Don’t get cocky.
