Mark Levin: Here's why the Virginia race was a TRUMP WIN



Throughout his campaign, Democratic candidate Terry McAuliffe made the governor's race in Virginia all about former President Donald Trump. And guess what? He lost — and so Trump won, argued BlazeTV host Mark Levin.

On the latest episode of "LevinTV," Mark discussed November's "red wave beatdown" of McAuliffe, which has the Marxist left and liberal media in a tizzy.

Mark shared a clip of CNN's Van Jones calling Glenn Youngkin "the delta variant of Trumpism" to paint the Republican as the equivalent of a dangerous contagion.

"My point is that playing on racial fears by demagoguing CRT furthers dangerous aspects of Trumpism," Jones later added on Twitter.

"The delta variant of Trumpism? He thinks he's so clever," Mark said of Jones' statement. "In other words, from his perspective, [Youngkin is] a racist, a bigot, a divider, you know, a loathsome human being because he ran on this issue of Critical Race Theory. Ladies and gentlemen, we didn't start this fight. The American Marxists started it."

"You see, the left — whether they're in the media, politics, academia — they're very confused about how to deal with this. On the one hand, they say [CRT] doesn't exist. On the other hand, they defend it, and if you don't embrace it you must be a racist. So, they're making two opposite arguments, but we know exactly what they are. In the first case, they're lying. And in the second case, they're reprobates," Mark continued.

Mark went on to continue playing the Van Jones video clip.

"[Youngkin] is playing footsie with the worst of Trumpism," Jones claimed in the clip. "He's putting himself forward as a champion of parents, that this is a referendum on parents' rights. But he's not talking about, but he's using all the Critical Race Theory head-fakes and head-nods, which is a softer version of a very virulent kind of anti-black posture."

"That is unbelievable," Mark responded. "Critical Race Theory is a racist ideology that was developed by a Marxist law professor, among others, and has been pushed by them to take down this country. That's why Black Lives Matter, the founders, they don't make any bones about it, that they are doctrinaire Marxists. ... I don't know why it's so complicated. The people who developed [CRT] said they were Marxists. The people who developed it in the 1970s, that's who they were. That's exactly who they were. But now, if you oppose Critical Race Theory, you're part of this Trump, white supremacy, racism, and so forth."

He later added, "The fact of the matter is that because McAuliffe tried to make this a campaign against Trump and he lost — Trump won."

CNN's Van Jones, David Axelrod rip fellow Democrats as 'annoying and offensive,' 'out of touch,' 'moralizing' amid big election night loss



Amid the shocking political turnaround in Virginia that culminated with Republican Glenn Youngkin's defeat of far-left Democrat Terry McAuliffe for governor Tuesday night, CNN's Van Jones and David Axelrod reflected on how their own Democratic Party managed to lose so big in a blue state.

'Annoying and offensive'

Jones surmised that Democrats have been living in a political bubble and not paying attention to voters' real day-to-day needs — and paid for it at the ballot box.

"I think that the Democrats are coming across in ways that we don't recognize that are annoying and offensive, and seem out of touch in ways that I don't think show up in our feeds, when we're looking at our kind of echo chamber," Jones said, mimicking someone scrolling through a smartphone. "And I think that this is a message here."

'Moralizing' messages: 'We will tell you what is right'

Axelrod echoed Jones' take, adding that Democrats also have come across as preachy to the point that they're dictating what voters should believe and how they should behave.

He noted that the Democratic Party has "become a more college-educated, urban party in coalition with minority voters, and the messages tend to be moralizing. It's like, 'We are going to tell you; we will tell you what is right.' And no connection to people who work with their hands, people who work with their backs, rural voters, so that's part of the problem."

How are folks reacting?

Twitter users responding to Jones' comments posted on the Republican National Committee Research page couldn't agree more:

  • "Oh honey, it's not that they just come across that way, they are," one commenter said.
  • "Yeah people are tired of all that woke nonsense," another user offered. "We just want to know what is going on and live as peacefully as we can with one another."
  • "YA THINK?" another commenter mockingly asked. "What idiot thought it was a good idea to portray concerned parents as 'domestic terrorists'? 'Defund the Police' wasn't a big enough failure, so Democrats went to war with parents?"
  • "'Seem out of touch'?" another user wondered. "The fact that they don't discuss the border crisis, the Afghanistan fiasco, defunding the police, the crime, the failing public schools are all evidence of that. Those problems do not exist to them."

New poll finds Republican Glen Youngkin taking the lead over Dem Terry McAuliffe in pivotal Virginia governor's race



A new poll finds former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe trailing Republican challenger Glen Youngkin among likely voters in the pivotal race for Virginia's governorship.

The Fox News poll released Thursday found that 53% of likely voters supported Youngkin, while only 45% said they supported McAuliffe.

That same poll previously found that McAuliffe was garnering 51% support among likely voters, with Youngkin receiving only 46% support.

The gubernatorial election will be decided Tuesday.

McAuliffe has tried to tie Youngkin as much as possible to former President Donald Trump in an attempt to motivate his liberal and Democratic base to the polls.

The former governor (2014-18) gave the Youngkin campaign damaging ammunition when he said during a debate that parents should not be allowed to tell schools what to teach their children. The quote played into fears over transgender bathroom policies, critical race theory, and vaccine mandates in schools.

The gubernatorial election is seen by many as a bellwether for the upcoming midterm elections where Republicans are expected to retake the U.S. House of Representatives with a favorable slate of elections. Democrats worry that if the election is close at all that it could mean Republicans are heading toward many electoral victories.

Although McAuliffe had been favored early to win the election, more recent polling shows Youngkin making inroads to tighten the race significantly.

"Independents have abandoned Joe Biden, Terry McAuliffe's numbers have been declining among independents as well," said Dr. Bob Holworth, a political analyst for WTVR-TV.

"And that I think, more than anything else, may be the major factor that's impacting these polls and tightening the election in Virginia," he added.

The Fox News poll, conducted Oct. 24-27, had a margin error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
