Please, Democrats, stop acting like Donald Trump. It’s not a good look.

“Many people a year ago would not have recognized me, now they really do,” Fairfax told the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

It appears you do not know the difference between fame and infamy Justin.

Thanks @southerndem

I guess things have changed to the point that having sexual assaults on your resume is a good thing.

Well, if Dems clean up in the legislative elections this fall (which I kinda think they will), Fairfax will throw his hat into the ring. However, I’d expect some local heavyweights without such baggage to run for the job as well.

…If they can find any that don’t have blackface incidents somewhere in their past…

Justin Fairfax is not “Democrats,” he’s simply a delusional fool.

There are some experienced women, including POC women, who can run for the job and I think would be very popular.

Welp, that made it easy to really loathe this guy. He’s gotta go.

Keep on telling yourself that, playa!

“Many people a year ago would not have recognized me, now they really do,” Fairfax told the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Noting, “it’s better than having wanted posters tacked up all over the neighborhood.”

The only bad publicity is no publicity.

Democrats immediately came together across the state and called for Fairfax to step down. He refused and so for now we are stuck with him.

By contrast, Trump is credibly accused of sexual assault for the sixteenth time, and Republicans unite behind him with love and unquestioning loyalty.

There is no analogy to Trump here.
