Youngkin aide accuses McAuliffe team of dressing up fake Youngkin backers in racist 'Unite the Right' garb
Fox News
Republican Glenn Youngkin's Virginia gubernatorial campaign Friday suggested Democrat Terry McAuliffe's campaign of engaging in dirty tricks to tie Youngkin to racists – which the McAuliffe campaign denied in a statement to Fox News.
"This was not us or anyone affiliated with our campaign," McAuliffe spokesperson Renzo Olivari responded. "There is one candidate in this race who has embraced white nationalists — and his name is Glenn Youngkin."
The controversy began Friday morning when a reporter for NBC 29 posted a tweet of five people who were carrying tiki torches and wearing khakis, white shirts and sunglasses standing in the rain in front of Youngkin's campaign bus. According to that reporter, the people said, "We're all in for Glenn."
