Ralph Northam Has No Credibility & Must Resign as Governor of Virginia

I don't know if Virginia Governor Ralph Northam appeared in blackface or in a Klan hood in his 1984 college yearbook.

But I do know that Northam has no credibility and that he must resign. In the space of 24 hours, he has gone from apologizing for appearing in the picture to denying he was in the photo and then admitting at a press conference he put shoe polish on his face when dressing up as Michael Jackson for a Halloween party. Northam's wife had to stop him from breaking out in the Moonwalk

Northam has only been Governor for all of three weeks, but his position has become untenable. He must resign immediately. The longer he stays on the greater the damage he does to Virginia, the office he holds and, yes, the political party he represents. 

As for Republicans, so long as they tolerate Steve King, Cindy Hyde Smith and, yes, President Trump in their midst they are no position to lecture anyone about anything.
