Gillespie and the Neo-Confederates owe us an apology too.

See I understand who the spy's of Mississippi was. Black People against Black People!! Crabs in a barrel indeed!!

WHY! They still killing our men Beating our women showing their heart from SLAVERY to now ! Y'all want to apologize. SMH

Ralph Northam and the Democrats owe an apology to the President of the United States. They should respect the presidency.

Yes they do

Never. He ran a racist campaign & had nothing to offer the people.

Yeah, no.

Ed Gillespie is a racist. The fact that Northam turned out to be one as well doesn't excuse Gillespie. It simply means Northam hid it better The WSJ should be embarrassed by this.

Nope - sorry. Just because Northam was an idiot doesn’t make Gillespie less a racist dirtbag. He might apologize to Pierrello though...

fuck no!

republicans still support keeping confederate monuments up, fyi

GILLESPIE OWES THE NATION AN APOLOGY FOR BEING A REPUBLICON

no they don't

No they fucking don’t.

The contemporary racist deserves an apology from the guy who did racist stuff 35 years ago and supports the opposite policies now? Great take.

I don't think so.

Ain’t that the truth!

Y'all love having slaves, huh?

Then what does realDonaldTrump owe America for Stormy Daniels, Karen McDougall and Trump Tower Russia?

The only thing they should apologize for is being stupid.

All these tweets, what POS!

This is a bad take and you should feel bad.

Absolutely! Ed’s name was smeared. Actions speak louder than words GovernorVA. Do the right thing and resign, you’ve let down Virginia.

Nope

What is going on at this paper? Pure foolishness.

F**k Ed Gillespie

What a total disaster this Governor is!

Did Ed’s mom write this?

Nah, Gillespie wanted to be 'the racist' candidate. It doesn't matter that a past racist beat him.

Uh, does the WSJ want the same fate as AMI? Keep on with this shit.

Naah. Your candidate lost WSJ.

So on an unrelated note, when can we look forward to TommyNorment’s apology?

Maybe there is a compromise. If he actually does the moonwalk?

Melissa31920880 We are basically the most diverse country on the planet. The only racist/race baitors I see on a daily basis are on TV and social media. These idiot politicians trying to get votes are the only ones screwing things up.

Lmao, now THAT’S funny...

The Lt. Governor of Mississippi (current GOP front runner for 2020 governor) wearing black face and saying the n word has been painfully silent in media for some reason. I wonder why.

2 people can both be bad

No he ran a racist campaign so Ithink WSJ owes us an apology for running this 💩

Um no, they do not.

No, they don’t. Thanks for the laugh though.

maddow TheRevAl c_herring Good Job bigleaguepol! Your investigative reporting has got the theDemocrats of Virginia eating their own. Do they even realize that they will be turning control of Virginia over to the GOP SpeakerCox, best Gov. for the Commonwealth of VA!

Northam can skip the apology to Gillespie and just resign already. How the Democrats can support a KKK hood wearing racist as governor in Virginia is disgusting.

YOU BET THEY DO!!!!!!

No, they don’t. At least Northam did it three decades ago. Gillespie was a bigot yesterday.

Counterpoint...nah

This is beyond stupid

WARNING: Paywall will prevent you from reading the article.

Yah think?

Opinion: I’d be careful apologizing to anyone in Virginia at this point.

GOOD OLE BOY NEEDS TO LET IT GO,,,,,,JUST RESIGN,,,,,,

Um, no. He ran a racist campaign, just like Trump. You owe the country an apology.

Nope. This makes no sense. DoBetter

And Murdoch publication up to its old tricks

Sorry that no matter what Northam did it doesn’t change the fact that Gillespie is a racist piece of shit. How’s that?

No they don't

Absolutely owes Ed Gillespie an apology!

It’s a fraud perpetrated on the voters!

The fuck they do.

Phuck ed gillespie...and your fishwrapper too.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 No.

Here you go...

Um no. We don't like racists, no matter whose party they belong to. How are you this ignorant?

you & GOP have owed apologies to black folks for years. Gillespie owes apologies to immigrants and POC. Check back when you are done.

Absolutely not

Apologies from the WH before any apologies are even considered!

Ed Gillespie ran a racist campaign. I’m not apologizing for jack

That’s your opinion and based on the responses very few people agree

NOPE

WSJ, I hope Bezos buys you guys out too. We owe Gillespie nada.

FU you owe everyone a apology.

Definitely but don't expect it. They aren't good at seeing their own racists. They can't find one out of the three fit for office, according to the standards they hold everyone else to.

This is so dumb.

pssssssssssssst you're worse than him

You and trump first.

Thats a NO. 🙄

Now do Trump.

Ha. No.

You can go to Helen Hunt for that apology.

No. Next.

The Wall Street Journal

GTFOH

Gillespie isn’t the one he owes an apology to at all.

this is some snowflake booty junk

No. They don't.

No they do not. Gillespie needed only to walk into a library and look at Northam's college yearbook. Opposition research dropped the ball.

Nope. Northam is still better than Gillespie.

WSJ owes an apology for this gaslighting apologist bs masking as journalism.

Nope!!

The writer of this article must be on drugs. smh

Haha, assuming Ed Gillespie doesn't have his own issues dug out...

None of what Northam did changes the fact that Ed Gillespie is an open and avowed racist who supports a white supremacist president. what a weird take.

Yeah like no they don’t. Nobody told Gillespie to run a racist campaign.

Interesting, but will you shine the same flashlight in microscope on how Donald Trump won? The tactics that were used against Hillary Clinton for a couple of years at least? A real Witch Hunt

Don’t hold your breath

It's amazing when the Democrats are undone by their own 'politics of destruction'. The top 3 elected politicians in VA are about to be led to the guillotine by the leftist mob. Here's a heads-up for you. By the time 2020 rolls around most of your cands will be knocked off by YOU.

Yes they do! They labeled him a racist while it was they the DEMOCRATs who were the true Racists!

Apology aside, I think the GOP’s candidate was running a lousy campaign. How come they missed such an important evidence?! From now on, 1st things 1st, go look at the yearbook for cry out loud!

I knew this idiotic article would get ratioed. It deserves to be, frankly.

Calling a guy a racist without evidence and then to be seen as one is extraordinary. As a Christian I can’t see how he sees himself in Gods will

They owe him the governorship

Eric Poterfield WV needs to resign? Saying f*ggot on the house floor and saying gay people are like the KKK without hoods. ResignEricPorterfieldWV

They owe an apology to every Virginian. The State has spent millions developing a tourism industry, and we are now identified with rapists, racists, and baby-killers. Sadly, Virginians may have to wait years to purge this DNC cancer.

Northam's campaign spent a lot of time painting Gillespie as a racist, simply because Gillespie want localities to determine if memorials should be taken down.

Time to close shop WSJ

The list is growing. DemocratsAreRacist

WOW

Right after Trump apologizes to Obama for his birther claims

Ed Racist Gillespie? LOL

What a freaking joke.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAWHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Go fuck yourselves.

No.

They do not. No matter how bad a decision Northam made decades ago, no matter how badly he explained it days ago, Gillespie's campaign was a despicably racist operation, worthy of every criticism it received. Until the GOP cleans its own house, they can sit this out...

The poor GOP. Always the victims.😭

No, they don't.

You’re entitled to your opinion. My opinion is that Wall Street Journal is an Enemy of America and should be liquidated.

No they don’t, they owe apologies to the minorities and/or women they wronged.

.wsj is owned by rupert murdoch. trash organization.

Democrats are the ultimate hypocrites as they accuse others of racism while they Harbor racist views!

The racists think apologies are owed for others doing something racist...in Virginia? The same people who say - But Confederate flags are all about southern pride? And the same people who have a Robert E Lee tribute? Lee, and every Confederate, was a traitor.

Yeah… no.

Hahaha. Do they owe David Dukes one , too?

No! He owes no apology to Gillespie for something he did in the 80s. Gillespie's defending Confederate monuments TODAY. TODAY Gillespie attacks POC & immigrants. TODAY Gillespie is a Confederate sympathizer. Northam owes apologies to blacks & POC, but no Confederate lover.

The only person who owes Gillespie an apology is whoever was in charge of oppo research for his campaign.

No they don’t. He gets no passes, either.

They just don't give a darn

While I don't agree with Northam's actions, where's the Republican apology for anything they've done (Merrick Garland, Brian Kemp, Stealing kids from parents and locking them in cages etc..) ? He owes the Republicans nothing.

Um, Gillespie ran on preserving the monuments the guys with the tiki torches were marching to save. Gillespie doesn’t deserve an apology for something he has in common with Northam.

lol

Nope.

I know. VA would be safe in the hands of a Republican Gov right now had that blackface photo come out earlier. Where WERE you, “reporters?!” 🤨

Counterpoint: Fuck no.

Excuse me?

AN ENTIRE EDITORIAL BOARD THIS FUCKING STUPID

This is an extremely bad take. Oh wait, it's WSJ's opinion section. 'A wretched hive of scum and villainy' - Obi wan Kenobi

opinion the entire Republican Party owes America an apology

Of course they do but won’t...

Now I'm going to favorite and retweet all my bullshit

Why? Politics is dirty business. Leave it at that.

I really want to know who thinks Ed Gillespie deserves an apology

Gerard was it you

Oh shit it's the while editorial board

Do they have the cash listed you got paid I'm going to click

is a conservative rag. Do better.

'FDR needs to apologize to Hitler--For America's Future'

'Anyone Who Made Nixon Resign Should Feel Bad And Think About What They Did To That Poor Man'

Are you guys ashamed to show your faces around WSJ journalists? Because you should be.

I want a column at WSJ that gives me cash deposits

President Grant Ought To Apologize To The KKK--If He Has Any Decency!!

Abraham Lincoln Owes Jefferson Davis An Apology--Now, Please!

The ad begins with a pickup truck bearing a large, waving Confederate flag and brandishing an “Ed Gillespie for Governor”

hahahahahahahahahahaha No. Gillespie is a racist. VA GOP need to take care of their own racism.

There are many people they do owe an apology to, but the last person that should get one is neo-Confederate Ed Gillespie.

Nope.

In a September 2017 gubernatorial debate, Gillespie said that the statues were history and could be used to teach people about slavery in the South.[

I don't think WSJ should get away with punishing this so I'm going to annoy the hell out of them

Yeah, no.

Did MS-13 invade Virginia?

Maybe give this account an INSUFFERABLE amount of attention

Now I know I seem like a buffoon but I'm not saying Ed Gillispie deserves an apology

Cash, preferably.

Did I do it right? Can I get that check?

Here come the democrats to defend THEIR racist. ITS OK WHEN YOURE A DEMOCRAT....

How do you get to write stuff like this? How do you get a job like this?

I must be doing something wrong with my life.

'The Democrats Need To Apologize To Mr. Trump--And Quickly'

You get paid more money than me. Damn!

Gillespie ran the weakest, most racist campaign I've ever seen. We were bombarded with racist and idiotic commercials. He lost every debate. No, we made the correct decision. We still will. Right-wing outsiders and VAGOP are scared of losing. We're not falling for their schemes.

They do? Wow. I didn't know that. Interesting.

Calling out racism is no longer cool? ..... what's next? ...Rescind some civil rights? ...bring back segregation?

Does anyone believe that an owed apology has any value?

Should toss him the keys to the mansion.

ratio

No they don't .... I see you got your talking points from the RNC....

No. I voted against Gillespie's race baiting. I stand by that.

The hypocrites respond.

They dont owe Ed a damn thing

Wow nope nope nope nope

Virginians won’t vote for another Dem Governor for 20 years at least.

LOL 😂 Another right wing hit piece.

rag

The WSJ is like the National Enquirer for rich people.

Why would anyone owe anything to Gillespie who deliberately used race manipulatively? Why can't both Northam and Gillespie both be jerks? The language of logic does not require one must be elevated over the other.

Delete your editorial board

The dumbest ish ever

Democrats don't owe Ed Gillespie a damn thing.

Hahhhahahhaahahhahahahahahahahahhaha

Uh.....no. Not how this works. At all.

Nope, nope, nope. Ed Gillespie campaigned using obvious racist lit as well as dogwhistles for the more refined bigots. No need to check for skeletons in his past since he had the cadavers on full display.

The confederate statue guy? Ahahaha

What for?

The Trumpery of it all. How Stupid is this Author? This is why Racism In America, 400yrs later is so deep seeded & it is wickedly Evil. Check your Privilege, fool. Then try again....Using the medulla oblongata that was given to You to THINK! And Jesus, wept😢

Hold your breath whoever wrote this. FOH!!!

DUNCE ALERT.

Hahaha. No we don’t.

WTF

No.

Lol, anyone remember when WSJ didn't serve at the pleasure of the most vile administration in history? We will wait for your apology first

Wall Street journal and these other 'reputable' need stop publishing these opinion pieces. This the type of crap the Daily Caller or Breitbart would publish.

No! Republicans in Virginia need to file criminal complaints about Democrat VOTE FRAUD from ILLEGALS voting with their Driver's License & work to finally destroy the RACIST Democrat Party.

for what

Ed has himself to blame. He ran a racist campaign.

Here's the difference between northam and a typical Republican... Republicans ACTIVELY throughout their career try and abolish civil rights. Northam made a mistake 35 years ago, but doesn't actively try and suppress minorities with legislation. See the difference

Then does Trump owe an apology to Hillary Clinton?

ABSOLUTELY NOT! His campaign was racist which is reflective of his beliefs🤨 EdWGillespie

No they don't.

You really really really suck at this.

Dear Republicans, This Isn't hard. Blaming an entire race for a few crimes committed isn't working for you. Evolve please. And maybe stop lying and fear mongering.

How are we supposed to know the truth when they hide it? We need deep background checks on people before they run. In the military you don't get the top secret job until you qualify for and get the security clearance. Elected Leaders should face the same scrutiny.

The pro-confederate statue guy? Yeah, no.

Steve King owes the entire nation an apology

Yah, nope.

I hate Rupert Murdoch and the wsj is a joke.

Bullshit.

Have to disagree. Gillespie made false statements regarding an entire race, causing fear and panic. He needs to apologize for THAT.

I am so glad I cancelled my subscription after y’all endorsed Bolsonaro. Money well saved.

Him first!

Racists owe the apologies.

Bull sht

Nope. He ran a racist campaign. Not in the mood for what aboutism. Teach each other how to not be racist.

Given Gillespie's continued racism. Nope we dont.

Nah, racism is racism and doesn't deserve apologies. Ed Gillespie is trash

U've gotta be kidding me? Ur owned by one of the biggest racists in the world. Ur in no position to lecture anyone.

No!

Nope.

MURDOCH TABLOID CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP

No they don’t. Gillespie needs to apologize over and over for the racist campaign he ran. You guys are god awful.

Ummm... no they don't.

No we do not!

Nope, you have it completely backwards. Both Ed Gillespie and Tom Perriello (Northam’s Dem primary opponent) owe the Commonwealth of Virginia apologies for the lack of due diligence. Same for all the previous opponents in elections Northam won. That was their job. 😕🇺🇸

One guy was (maybe still is) racist, so that absolves the guy who clearly was racist for all to see in 2017. Great logic.

Why

Nope

Hell no we don’t!

Lol! No.

Only apology Ed needs is from is mother for raising a racist piece of crap for a son.

Bullshit.

They most certainly do not. Sit down and shut up, WSJ.

How does this excuse what Gillespie did

Um, no.

Gillespie positioned his campaign to demonize Hispanics, stoke fear and hatred, and directly appeal to racists. No apology is owed to him ever.

The stupidity of this is beyond belief. Gillespie’s whole run at the end was that immigrants were going to kill us all and Northam was helping MS-13. It was disgusting, intentional and this century.

Ed Gillespie deserves nothing but regret and loneliness.

Unless Gillespie is claiming Black ancestry or that one of them sexually assaulted him...fuck no they don't.

The Democrats should take no shit of the Trump supporting WSJ

True! But never going to happen! Remember it’s the democrats!

No they don't

You've lost your minds. Today, Ed Gillespie lives the life of bigotry Northam left behind. Gillespie was rejected by Virginians because of his bigoted campaign & support of racist policies. Northam's acts have nothing to do with his policies. Yes, Ralph screwed up, but screw Ed!

HAHAHAHAHA. This IS a joke, right?

Tate Reeves and Thomas Norment. You can pontificate when you've condemned these two republican men for their racist pasts.

Being racist means apology he owes apology to a white guy?! I’m confused

Hmm, yes, that is certainly *an* opinion that one could have.

Yes they do!!!! Well done 👍🏻

for what? He ran a racist campaign. I bet if we looked into his past there'd be something. Don't make him out a norally superior.

sweaty stop running racist campaigns

tcfitz3 Nope.

No!

Um. Not one bit.

For what? He’s a proud racist right now, not 40+ years ago.

Get ratio'd.

Resign you are racist too.

No.

How about you go pound sand

This is a shockingly bad take

Opinion:

Nope

Counterpoint: Ed Gillespie is owed an apology from no one ever except himself for being sucky.

Being a Democrat means never having to say your sorry to a Republican

Sure do!

Lol. Racists, in either party, is bad. That's a wrong opinion.

Lol. Right. Please all hold your breath

Burned my thumbs on this take.

Nope. Gfy

Dear Ebola, You owe Cancer an apology. 3 WSJ

Just dropping off my ratio contribution...

This is embarrassing right-wing shillery, even for you right-wing shills.

Hahahaha...no.

Ralph Northam owes an apology to black people and the Democratic Party on that order.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Hilarious

Northam put the picture in the yearbook because he was proud of it ... he was raised to be a racist ... he is still a racist wanting to kill black babies!

More than that they owe him his rightful place as Governor of Virginia!

nope

Why?

OK. Let's FIRST get resignation letters from those who've *Worn blackface/condoned it *Been members of a frat where 'slave auctions' or 'Old South' parties occured *Been members of or spoken at 'Citizens Councils,' etc *Featured Confederate flags in their ads Wanna go there?

How in the world is Northam still in office ? Oh yeah, he is a Democrat.

Not only does Ed Gillespie not deserve an apology but you now owe your own apology to victims of sexual assault and bigotry.

and Roy Moore and Justice Kavanaugh! SenFeinstein is the BIGGEST hypocrite staying silent ... so is SenBlumenthal ... racists & rapists are ok as long as they are Democrats

This opinion could only be written by people who paid little to no attention to the actual VA guv campaign. Thanks for your ignorance, I guess?

No - they don’t. Gillespie ran a platform that paid homage to symbols of slavery & treason

No. Whatever is in Northam's past does not excuse Gillespie and his campaign.

add an apology to Americans too

That is just a really stupid opinion. What others may have done does not excuse Gillespie’s lifetime of racism. Does WSJ screen opinion letters at all Rupert?

WSJ with the Shittiest Take Award of the week.

No the hell they don't. 😒

Wait, so the logic here is that Dems should praise Gillespie because he hasn't worn blackface even though his policies are clearly racist? Racism should be called out in any form. He doesn't get a gold star for being less racist then someone who wore blackface.

Fuck Ed Gillespie.

The entire US government owes a deep and sincere apology to the people whom they fail to serve, and to the people here and abroad who's lives they have been methodically destroying over the past 300 years.

We owe you nothing.

Sure-Jan-gif

No!

No. Hell, no.

Nope

You owe me an apology for having read this. Tf is the matter with you

Are you insane? Wtf?

No- DJT owes the apology to the opportunist Gillespie- so WSJ to suck Fck the gop while vilify the Dems-

Hahahahahaha! The Wall Street Journal.

Apologize to the Nazi because your guy was racist once! Nice try wsj.

No dummies, they all owe an apology to their constituents, and a lifetime ban from any job that puts them in charge of making decisions that affect the lives of others.

MS-13 did take over the state

Counterpoint: No they fucking do not

🖕

Pretty sure they don't and pretty sure your hopes that Republicans who favor race-based gerrymandering are gonna get control of Va. over this are misplaced.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahagofuckyourselves

No. Very no.

Hahaha. Nope.

That’s not how it works. Gillespie is still a racist. Northam owes POC an apology and all Virginians but not the other racist who lost the election

Kavanaugh effect he needs to step down immediately.

The Dems do not apologize for their methods

nice 'pecker' move will you be at the checkouts next? Northam's wrongs are his, no need to try to validate your party's bigotry because of his. they can both exist at the same time.

lol, Northam being racist 30 years ago but since changing and apologizing doesn't mean he has to apologize to current Republican racists who are actively being racist and are unapologetic about it.

And the award for Whitest Tweet of the Day goes to ...

Forget the African American community or even Virginia voters in general! The aggrieved is a GOP official who embraced and surrounded himself with racists!

Damn right they do.

Nope.

He owes an apology to the state for running on confederate statues and immigrant scare mongering.

Why?

Not sure that’s who Ralph needs to apologize to.

Big time! Plus the democrat party owns America an apology and they need to change course.

Apologies are meaningless words. Gillespie did not win. Biggest problem in elections is voter manipulation. PA? ME? FL? GA? NC?The list goes on...

Virgina huh? WTF? ~Smooch~ᶫᵒᵛᵉ💕~Marie~

Do you guys like spiders?

Nobody takes the WSJ seriously anymore. Another stained branch of Murdoch’s extremist little empire.

Has Gillespie spoken up yet? He needs to step forward big time and attack all who attacked him.

No they don’t. Gillespie is still awful.

And Trump owes apology to Clinton for all his rants at rally about her having the most dishonest administration if she won with investigations and quid pro quo and enriching her family,etc.

Don't be so stupid.

And the Republican Party owes an apology to the American people for electing trump

Never in a million years. He ran an overtly racist campaign with promises of being overtly racist

Yes because the only thing WSJ ever talks about since Trump has been in power is the past...

Republicans owe the world an apology for Trump.

Did they force him to send racist mailers?

WSJ: Ed Gillespie should have been allowed to demonize all Hispanics from the Governor's seat and install more statues 'honoring' Confederates who worked to enslave black people because...racial justice?

Ummm......NO.

The WSJ owes America an apology for supporting the traitor in the WH.

Nope

Ummm. No

Dems stick together Republicans turn on each other

Nah, they don't owe Gillespie an apology. Stupid opinion piece. Go back to business & quit writing about politics, Editorial Board.

Fact: Ralph Northam owes an apology to Black people. Opinion: this article owes an apology to everyone for making us read such a stupid take.

No way... Ed Gillespie ran a racist campaign

Hey WSJ-Compare the actions of Northam vs Gillespie in the last 25 years. You'll find that Gillespie owes all Virginians an apology for being a corrupt, corporate ass. At least Northam saw the light many years ago & has done good things for ALL Virginians.

GTFOH

Ok I'll start: I'm sorry Northam didn't give this damaging information to Gillespie so he could win the election. I'm sorry that Gillespie still wouldn't have won anyways cuz his campaign was still more racist than blackface. And I'm sorry you think he's the real victim here.

Y'all mad you didn't have a chance to nominate him?

Ed Gillespie lost because all of his 'shortcomings' have always been apparent.

GOP I was as an apology for creating a party full of racists.

Why?

GOP and Bush Jr. owe America an apology for starting 2 wars, for giving us Dick Cheney, Rumsfeld, and our whole economy crashing and bankrupting America.

Nobody owes Gillespie an apology. He ran an extremely racist campaign making him a current racist! I saw the ads that played in Northern VA!

Maybe the person driving the truck with the Confederate flag during the VA race for governor, was really Ralph Northam !

No

HE NEEDS TO RESIGN HE IS RACIST!

Ridiculous

lol ok Wait for it...

Lol

GOP and Clarence Thomas owe us an apology

GOP and Kavanaugh owe WOMEN and AMERICA an apology

GOP and Roy Moore owe America an apology.

Uuhhh no. In that case Steve King, Trump, Romney, McConnell, Paul Ryan and ALL REPUBLICANS owe us and America a DAMN APOLOGY.

The owes an apology to the entire world.

Lol, no. He was unapologetically racist

I wouldn't hold my breath on this - MSM will not hold him in account - for example, see Harry Reid and Mitt Romney in 2012

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!

Get the F out of here😂

Two hours later, lol no

No

Poetic justice. Northam turned out to be a racist. It was his Yearbook page - whose else?

Then just imagine what the GOP owes Obama.

This is my apology 🖕🖕🖕🖕

ahahahahahahaha no

lol absolutely not

Yes they do, Karma is a b*tch

All the media continue to distract from the now distant memory of the democrats support of infanticide. Apparently painting ones face black is an evil worse than murder.

GOP = ❄️

No he doesn’t—he didn’t support Corey Stewart in congressman Bigfoot who is nuts/-

im really sorry you ran a racist campaign ed.

Ed Gillespie has no one but himself to blame by turning to a neo-confederate and using Trump-like tactics to try to bolster his campaign.

Lol. No they don’t. But Gillespie could apologize to the nation.

Yes! I mean, they should apologize for not being as racist as Gillespie! We could do much more to disenfranchise black voters! GFYS

Go fuck yourself Confederate apologists

for things done in 1984

You owe an apology to good journalism for writing this garbage.

Yeah, no

No.

Fuckkk you

No confederate statue worship is still bad.

Gillespie literally ran a platform of saving Confederate statues and waving the Traitor-and-Slaveowner Flag everywhere he could. In 2017, not 1983.

The hell they do

Nope.

Are you serious with this BS? WSJ owes the world an apology for publishing this toxic garbage and trying to pass it off as journalism of some kind. Even opinion pieces deserve a little bit of scrutiny.

LOL

Anyone that stoops to his level , should not be a Governor .

After you call on Paul and Mitch to apologize we can talk

Not even close, kids.

Nope.

Ed Gillespie is a racist, and, if the two were running against each other again, only racists would vote for Ed Gillespie.

No, they actually don’t

No, they don’t! Nice try right-wing rag!

No they don’t. Northam’s racism doesn’t excuse Gillespie’s.

Nah

I'm not even gonna pull out my tiny violin. Try again.

Bullshit

Yea, OK. Right after Mitch McConnell apologizes to President Obama and Merrick Garland. And Tom Cotton apologizes to Cassandra Butts' Family and President Obama. And Trump apologizes to America for being a treasonous pos and following Putin's orders to diminish global democracy.

Fact: Donald Trump and the Republicans owe an apology to Hillary Clinton.

Absolutely not. What is wrong with you?

No.

Please hold your breath until that happens.

No, WSJ. Bad. Bad newspaper. No biscuit.

What a horrible take

Agreed but let’s not hold our breath

🖕🖕🖕🖕

LOL nope

nope

The actions of one do not excuse the other in this case. Soooo...

They do not! No comparison. Democrats need to quit playing your GOP finger pointing and race baiting games. The ruled need to be the same. Worry about Trump,Kavanaugh and the ones stading in session yelling the worf faggots. enoughofGOP

No they don’t / but not surprised that you would try and twist this

Can't wait for the photos of Gillespie in blackface to turn up. Its being suggested that the Gillespie people didn't discuss this during the campaign because they would be accused of trying to suppress the black vote

What?

No - the fuck - they do not

Lol. Yeah, no. No one told Gillespie to run on a racist agenda. Just because Northam turned out to have the exact same attitude toward African Americans that the ENTIRE fucking GOP has, does not mean Democrats have to prostrate themselves.

Nope. Gillespie is still a thousand times more racist.

My opinion on your opinion...

This is a horribly bad take. Gillespie ran a pro-Confederate campaign. He also ran on fear of MS-13

Lol

oh, have a seat.

What an utterly idiotic take. Dude is a racist himself. That doesn’t change.

Ed Gillespie opposed the removal of Confederate monuments. Ed Gillespie supported the “Muslim ban.” Ed Gillespie ran fear-stoking MS-13 ads. Meanwhile, Northam’s yearbook from 34 years ago had a shockingly racist image, so now he must apologize for calling Gillespie out? Please.

Ralph thinks he looks good in the hood. Impeach

KassyDillon You're adorable. Being a democrat means never having to say you're sorry to a member of the GOP.

If bad takes were nickels.

No, they don’t. Gillespie and the GOP decided to run on a campaign of defending racist statues, racist history.

Nope.

I think not. Northam, Gillespie and a whole lot of other white supremacists owe Black folks some apologies.

Why? Supporting The Confederacy today is much worse than black face 35 years ago.

Um what? Nobody owes Gillespie an apology

Democrats never apologize for anything. Examples of Democrats as: - Racists - Northam, Biden - Sexual Predators - Fairfax, Booker - Fraud - Warren - Prostitute - Kamala Harris - Bully - Klobuchar Democrats must be proud of these clowns. msnbc cnn foxnews nytimes oann

We on to the Conservative strategy. This is BS.

No, Ed’s the same as ole klan hood there.

No

Ed Gillespie sent me mailers about the scary MS-13 gang members Ralph Northam wanted to import to Virginia, so I’m not sure he’s got a leg to stand on here

Sorry if Democrats hold their own to a standard. Unlike Republicans who grt away with everything until the people vote them out.

Oh good god do you really think we're stupid? The level of hyprocisy your editorial board regularly engages in is sickening.

Nah, he was being racist.

They owe an apology to the people they hurt, but not Ed Gillespie or any other racist GOPer

Democrats are the party of Robert Byrd.

Nope

Nope. But keep trying.

No

Here let me apologise 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

No one forced Gillespie to run on saving confederate statues and a hate campaign against Hispanics

yeah this is absolutely, 100% a hard no. gillespie should feel free to apologize for his disgraceful, racist, fear-mongering, gutter-dwelling campaign at any time though.

Just here for the ratio, dipshits.

Fail.

I'm going to trust the outfit that tweeted this

No they don't. He ran a racist campaign. Nothing that's happened the past week changes that.

This ain't it chief

for making him run on a pro-confederate statues platform?

Ah, no we don’t. Ed is still a racist!

You really do seem to enjoy embarrassing the actual journalists working with you.

Never apologize to racists.

Awwwww are you having a sad?

Nope

LOL

No they don’t.

Holy shit, no we don't. Gillespie ran an unabashedly racist and xenophobic campaign. Ed Gillespie should apologize for his bigoted campaign.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!

Uhh Ed Gillespie chose to support the Confederacy he is owed NOTHING clearly bigotry and racism has no party

LOL: let's see the GOP apologize to Hillary Clinton, Merrick Garland, and Christine Blasie Ford then we'll talk.

Laughable headline. Should Trump apologize for using a foreign power to hack his way to a win in 2016? Should Bush apologize for hiring protestors (literally, GOP staff) to try and stop the recount? Gillespie should apologize for not *finding* this pic in over a year.

Nah.

Virginias4Racists

Lol nah

hell no

😹😹

No we don't! Gillespie is an open racist! Just like Trump, Steve King who's still in the congress & most of the GOP party! Dems take care of their own! We denounce it! We don't call Nazis very fine people! Clean your own tone deaf house! GOPHypocrisy

Hey Never go full TheOnion

Because racism 35 years ago is worse than racism last year? Gtfo

While we’re doing apologies could the WSJ apologize for helping elect Trump and continuing to offer him shade while he rides roughshod over our Constitution? Just a thought.

Not only that they need to resign! They are the racists and rapists. We cannot have them in any positions

“Suh, I say SUH, you owe me an apology for not joinin’ in with me to run on a bipartisan, you-knight-ed front of good ol’ fashioned suthrun open racism and racist policy during tha rigors of the campaign. I demand, I say I DEMAND satisfaction, suh.”

No, they don’t.

Ridiculous.

No, they explicitly do not. They owe their apology to Virginians (and Americans) of color

Nope

Donald trump owes an apology to: Barak Obama Women Mexicans Military Families The entire faith of Islam Africa Children Federal workers The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge El Paso Coal miners Harley Davidson the planet See how stupid you sound?

And too every Virginian.

Yes it's definitely Northam's fault that Gillespie ran as a neo-confederate lost cause booster.

Opinion: the WSJ sucks.

Hahaha, GOP math is amazing. The result is always an apology to the racist.

No.

oh pleez get over it

Hmmm, no, I don't think any Dem should give a sht what the laughingstocks at WSJ think. Remember, Gillespie cheered these fine young Republicans on:

Racists says what?

Thank you for giving me the dumbest thing I’ll read all day early.

It was a choice between a guy whose platform was basically “racist statues rule” or a guy who turned out to have put on blackface. America, baby!

WSJ in 1945: FDR and his anti-Semitic administration owe an apology to Hitler.

No one owes an apology to the GOP ... The GOP owes an apology to the American people ...

Fake news

Fact: They absolutely do not

Gillespie owes Northam and Fairfax an apology imo.

Who the fuck wrote this?

So then Steve King and the Iowa Republicans owe all of humanity an apology?

He ran on saving confederate statues, so nah

My ass they do, they owe black Americans an apology.

Two racists don't make a right

Nope

It’s scary how deluded the crazies (dems) are, incapable of recalling the shit storms they created around Megan or Kavanaugh. Disgusting people with pathetically shallow ethics

Because in Virginia only one racist is allowed to run. Damn Ralph Northam for not adhering to the rules of Running While Racist.

What?

No.

Nope.

Give me a break. How often have your pages called for Trump to apologize to the many people that he has wrongly accused? Trump makes false, unsubstantiated claims about his opponents daily and never apologizes. Give us all a break.

No.

Pass

dumb as red bricks made from virginia clay, you are.

Nah

Try again

Even by the high standards of absurdity that the WSJ editorial page doggedly sticks to, this is utterly absurd. Trash opinion, trash writing.

Shut up meg

Opinion: Confederate losers whine and want more concessions, as usual

I'm sorry, but when did Ed Gillespie stop being racist?

No

Nobody forced Gillespie to run a campaign for the 1488 crowd.

Ed Gillespie's campaign was extremely racist. No one owes him an apology ever.

Uh. Some racists don't cancel out all the other racists. For those at the Journal who are easily confused: Both the Ds and the Rs have racists.

no they don't

Maybe Ed’s team should do better at opp research

Uh Northam being racist in the pass doesn't excuse Gillespie's disgusting racism. Two racisms don't make a right. Pathetic.

Nope.

Please

lol no ed gillespie was a racist

Not only does Northam owe Gillespie an apology, but a big thank you for E.G.’s incompent staff for not discovering this during the campaign.

Democrat, Party of crime and corruption.

There is only allowed to be one racist in the state of Virginia, and if one person turns out to be racist, it proves that all other people aren't actually racist.

For what? Winning? They were elected, by the people. And their flaws, whether you want to believe it or not, are reflective of Virginia. If folks had wanted Gillespie, they would've elected him.

After Donald Trump the GOP and conservatives can't play the victim card anymore.

YES THEY DO OWE GILLESPIE AN APOLOGY! And as an act of contrition, they should ALL RESIGN!!!

GOP playing the victim card again.

To Ed Gillespie? Lol how about the people of Virginia ? I tell you what, they should apologize to Gillespie when Trump apologizes to Hillary Clinton. How about it ?

The new Face of Progressives?

US society has to stop with this b.s. that being a Democrat ascribes you a certain ethos. Looks like this false badge is grossly exploited almost daily.

Indeed they do. They won by portraying Gillespie as a dangerous racist for criticizing MS-13, meanwhile they turn out to be the party of Blackface and sexual assault!

It seems as if you have forgotten the newly elected governor of Florida and his many transgressions and I have not heard anyone call for an apology

Ohhhh, a poor widdle white man couldn’t convince VA voters he would work for their interests. He’s the *real* victim. Boohoo!

What would an apology do? Their lies and smears and hypocrisy prevented him from his aspirations and career goals and from serving all who agree with his policies.

How about the entire Dem apporatus.. He is a text book example of how Dems work. Hide their actual racism by screaming it at others

Ed “ racist ads” Gillespie? Nah.

If this guy was a Republican, there would be demonstrations in the streets with morons wearing pu$$yhats. You aren't even hiding your bias any longer, well, the electorate is paying attention.

Perpetual conservative victimhood machine churns and churns. The only machine that sustains itself, thermodynamics be damned

2nd opinion: Gillespie or his team AND the media owe an apology to Virginia voters for not finding AND publishing this story BEFORE the election...it was in his yearbook FFS. Funny, how the media walked right past it...and Gillespie team didn't find it (or worse)...

Dems need to apologize to the American people.

Man wall street journal is turning stupid

⬛😉🖐️

Spends an entire campaign claiming the Republican is a violent racist, Democrat uncovered to be wearing blackface in a yearbook photo. Hypocrites.

Yes. That ad with the Confederate flag was way over the top. Then come to find out Northam is a racist. He needs to go. Trump2020

Oh FFS the GOP is CONSTANTLY playing the victim card. Never seen a bigger bunch of snowflakes. Now lets to Tommy Norment crickets

RalphNortham should not be resigned

Democrats and their media outlets never apologize they just move on to the their next manufactured crisis to stoke the anti Trump fodder mill

YES THEY DO!!

DNC HAS DECIDED Let's Throw the Black Man Under the Bus And Circle the Wagons around the White guys in Blackface WalkAway BLEXIT

True

YES THEY DO!

Yes they do.
