Appearing as a guest onMSNBC's The Sunday Show, NBC News presidential historian Michael Beschloss charged that Virginia Republican governor-elect Glenn Youngkin "played the race card" to get elected, and was "perfectly happy to connect with Virginia's horrible, violent, ugly history, which is centuries of slavery, white supremacy politics."Left-wing host Jonathan Capehart -- who had previously heard the liberal, race-baiting analysis at a symposium -- cued up Beschloss to repeat the charge: "And you had a very bracing assessment of the role of whiteness -- of white -- and white grievance in the Virginia election. I would love for you to reprise that."

Poor old Beschloss. Thought he’d wandered off hand in hand with disgraced Doris Kearns Goodwin.

WHO has been using “racism” 100% of the time? This left wing POS and his claims are ridiculous. Anyone who can’t see this is F-ing blind or demented - probably both.

Never considered Beschloss much of a historical writer just a political hack.

Interesting that in German, the word "beschloss" means "decided" or "resolved" as young Michael's opinions have always seemed to be.

Seems to me I remember biden saying "They are going to put you all back in chains". But this is not race baiting.

Lets not forget the current Democrat governor was caught wearing black face. Everyone knows who the real racists are. These hate filled Liberals have nothing positive to say. All they can do is spew their racist hate. How can anyone stand these people?

Yes the USA is systemically racist because some stupid jackazzes just can't let it go. They seem to make a living off of it. I am retired and now a musician and a lot of my friends are musicians too. Some of them are black and others are whatever. All of these people can play you out the door and they accept me as part of the band. FJB MAGA

A former President states that the members of the club have been assigning straightforward presidents the same way for years. This former President was a Democrat. This former President integrated the Military. This former President acted on our behalf, no matter what his advisors said. This former President was Harry S Truman.

Bechloss spews pure drivel!!
Black slaves in Virginia were captured and sold into slavery by Black Africans from other tribes. As an historian he should be aware of that fact but he fails to mention it at all.
Slavery in America ended over a hundred and fifty years ago, Time to move on.

These people play the race-card so often that they believe everybody does it. What they fail to understand is that most folks have other things to do that are important and being racist is NOT among those important things. Apparently this Beschloss person has little to do besides appearing in MSNBC as one of their many racists.

That race card is being worn thin. Find another excuse for being beaten by a decent, honest electorate.

Any credibility as an historian evaporated when Beschloss threw in with leftists. History is not left or right…it simply is…history.

McAuliffe is an old, white guy. What makes voting against an old, white guy racist?

The tired, tattered, torn race card. I am so sick of it. It has been used so many times it has lost its meaning. It has no meaning whatsoever. Libs and blacks are the worst racists in American society.

Beschloss: "...Glenn Youngkin in Virginia played the race card, and he played it from the bottom of the deck."
Baloney. Glenn Youngkin simply addressed the legitimate concerns of Virginia's well educated parents. These moms and dads had not given PERMISSION for their kids to be singled out for mindless stereotyping. The parents stood up to the bullies and reminded them who works for whom. It was a very rewarding night for those who understand power comes FROM the people.
Like Glenn Youngkin, Winsome Sears seemed quite responsive to the concerns of her constituents. Does that make her guilty of playing the race card "from the bottom of the deck" too?

The Left are overplaying their race card to the point where it's so badly worn and faded that it's hard to tell whether it's the "sexist" card, the "racist" card, or "homophobe" card, any more. They are pathologically obsessed with dividing everybody into identity groups and making everything in life be about convincing each group that the others are against them.

Those folks in Virginia must be the dumbest white racist supremacists around. They voted against the party whose sitting governor was pictured either in blackface or Klan robes. And they even elected a black lady as Lt Gov and a Hispanic as AG.
Sarcasm key is now off.

It really looks like bogus charges of racism is all the leftist and socialist Democrats have as their socialist big money vote buying programs are increasingly unpopular with the majority of the American people. When the Democrats loose the Black vote they will immediately crash and burn.

Excuse me, baschloss. Virginia's horrible, violent, ugly history of slavery and discrimination was completely a history of demoncrat racism. Had nothing to do with us. Slavery and white supremacy politics has always been a demoncrat thing. Don't try to imply that we or the Republican Party, which was created to do away with the institution of slavery, had anything to do with it.

The liberal definition of racist is anyone who disagrees with them. Good to see that people just roll their eyes everytime the word is used.
