Trumped-up hypocrisy from McAuliffe

May 13, 2021

Terry McAuliffe’s hypocrisy knows no bounds.

In case you missed it, Fox News has exposed yet another lie from establishment insider Terry McAuliffe about political outsider Glenn Youngkin.

Fox News: “Terry McAuliffe criticizes Youngkin for Trump ties, but he has his own”

“Either Terry McAuliffe thinks Virginians are stupid, or he’s willing to say and do anything to get elected, and I’m betting on the latter,” said RGA Spokesperson Maddie Anderson. “Despite still being embroiled in a tough contested primary, where he’s been accused repeatedly of lying and exaggerating about his ‘record’, McAuliffe is operating under the assumption that he can simply bully his way to the governor’s mansion through his political insider connections and outright lies.”

What the Virginia Democrat didn’t mention is that he took $25,000 from Trump in 2009 for his failed gubernatorial bid.

McAuliffe also left out that he toasted Trump at the 2017 National Governor’s Association dinner after the former president referred to him as a “friend” that he has known for a “long, long time.”

“I just want to toast you, Mr. President, and say we want to work with you on those ideals that have instilled and brought all of us governors together. That we can respectively grow our states and grow our nation to be truly the great destiny that we are,” said McAuliffe.

“So I’d like to offer a toast to the president of the United States of America,” McAuliffe added.

McAuliffe also played golf with Trump and former President Bill Clinton at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, in 2002.

Additionally, in 2009, the New York Times Magazine noted that the former Virginia governor “moves in the rarefied atmosphere of big money and celebrity” that included Trump, Clinton and director Stephen Spielberg.
