Guess I'm the only black person in America that totally understand this guy. Dog-gone-it if you're going to mimic Michael Jackson and you're white, black faces in the city. Well light skinned black face. Beige face.

He thinks he's Obama 'believe what I say not what I do'.

Then he's going to be expelled! He can go join the crookedgop. The ComplicitGOP would love to have him. 🙄

maddow NBCNews WomenOnTheGroun thevoiceofblackwomen RalphNortham GovernorVA You must resign! If we as TheDemocrats hold the GOP accountable for what they do, we must hold GovernorVA accountable VA VACommonwealth BlackConstiuents BlackVotersMatter NAACP

Just resign it’s the best thing you can do. Now if we can get the orange one to resign life would be better.

Is this the only thing this man has done, is there any other signs that show racism? What about the governor of Georgia and what he's being accused of doing......

Does anyone remember the movie porkies?

Not in picture again!

Can u imagine if he was Republican?

Good he's obviously not a real racist. And if it was him in the photos it was poor judgment.If it was Republicans we wouldn't even be talking about it

Time to go, dude. You ship sailed & sank.

Resign please!! We have enough to worry about!!

Good luck

Mr. Northam needs to reconsider

Stand tall Gov. don't let the racist push you out

Here is the baby-killing racist refusing to shake hands with his black opponent...

Ummm, could have sworn I just saw it.

The GOP doesn’t resign and we all seem just fine with that.

LIAR!!!!!!!

Northam should and will resign. If he were a republican, his political stature would be ... status quo. If We allow Trump to hold office, we allow the likes of Northam to exist.

If you go back 35 years on any and everyone old enough to go that far back and be grown, you're bound to find something that pisses you off. I'm a black man who doesn't wear his feelings on his shoulders.

Wow those democrats don’t give up

I've got a buck that says Northam took the picture.

LORDY!! He keeps making it worse.

While both sides of the aisle are raining hatred on this governor, I can’t help but think back to the Charleston church murders. Nine people were killed by a white suprematist. Yet the victims’ loved ones forgave the murderer. Where is forgiveness now?

I don't understand It was HALLOWEEN. ... It is traditional for dressing up as something SCARY That KKK costume is scary.. So this means Ralph is a racist? Pretty soon the color 'black' used by any Caucasian will be considered a 'racist act' if we keep going in this direction.

Why apologize and then deny?

Resign

ByeRalph You're over.

It was Squi.

Then the VA legislators need to remove him by impeachment if necessary/ We have to show these cocky bastards that they work for US and when we no longer want them they get FIRED on the spot. Use him as an example to Donnie and his crime family..

I say BS!

Is he going through the stages of grief?

Hay dems. Why r u standing by this bigot

Racists like him and realDonaldTrump don’t belong in public office

He should resign right after McConnell.

This happened a long time ago. One of your weekend anchors was looking for him to resign. As I recall, she didn't resign for her negative comments on gays made many years ago. Times change. People change. If we cannot accept that, none of us will survive.

This is only one instance, if he never associated did a racist act since, I say let him keep his job.

Besides our President has done an enormous amount of hurtful and damaging thing to all the American people, including racism, and he is still President. Granted, racism is a vile, vulgar, way to be, but if you change and repent, who are we to judge, and throw stones?

Is anybody asking what medical school allows this picture to be included? Seriously.

I know I will get a lot of flack for this; but I believe him. And even if he had a part in the shenanigans, what had his whole career been about, what has he done to make the people of Virginia lives better. What one of us done something we are totally ashamed about now?

Bet he and BrettKavanaugh are buddies, lots of denials in common.

So if he’s not in it, he asked to have it on his yearbook page anyway? Huh? That’s certainly no better! It is worth noting that all those who’ve been doing this on college campuses for costume parties, who think its a joke, ought to think about where photos are. ResignRalph

Well, he thought he was, and that’s pretty damn telling.

My take. It was a foolish thing to do even 35 years ago. My guess is a theme party, like Tarts & Vicar.

My son in law has a shocking last name and maybe you will fault him for it. the name is Coon. Dam, to be born with this name today,,,,,,, We best wake up before we make everything racist or sexist or whatever.

... but then says he has been in blackface another time, but only a little, because shoe polish is hard to get off skin. I voted and volunteered for him. He's got to go.

The famous Joy Reid defense! Works every time😉

A person’s record go beyond a picture. Do not destroy en entire career for a picture. The Governor already said he regrets it.

So what day did he lie, Friday or Saturday?

Anyone going hard for his resignation better be going even harder at donald for the past 2 yrs to resign!!! I don’t hear any politicians going at donald to resign.. he’s first! Then Mitch, then Lindsey... if we want resignations for racism let’s start at the top!

This guy is toast. What I don’t understand is why it took 35 years for this to surface? He’s run for office since 2007 and no one checked out his past? Pretty despicable then and weak response now. He must think he’s Donald.

Dude done pulled out tRumps play book SMDH

Gov. Northam, I would not resign for whatever the reason was in the 80's picture. Unless people can prove you ARE racist, do not let them bring you down.

Ralph liar!

Sucker can’t makeup his mind. Apologies one day and denials the next! Nether the less, send his butt home.

Of course it is wrong by todays standards. What kills me is the revisionist history of people who say it was commonly considered unforgivably racist to use blackface in the 80s. It was used as comedy on tv into the late 1990s one example.

Ironic as purpose of the Klan hood is to hide the face

Don’t worry another photo will pop up soon

Halloween used to dress all kinds of ways. Would it have been better if he came to the party dressed as a penis? I saw Hillary Clinton in Blackface and she nearly beat Trump to become President. I thought she looked humorous, and I'm a black man. I've seen worse. MAGA! WWG1WGA!

35 yrs ago, seriously, not a violent crime. Could the man have grown and changed in that time. Good chance.

this is the next „but her emails“ fake scandal

all bigots will be instantly blocked

It was Earl, his 4th cousin twice removed.... The one who married his pet chicken then divorced it for his sister

I made horrible mistakes when I was 25, as I never ran for public office I could keep it private. sheer good luck

Trump has done far worse, Make him resign,,

Trump is the problem, not Northam, to put it as easy as possible for those not inclined to think

Why didn’t he say that to begin with?

even the caption is wrong, of course I expect him to resign, don‘t you too?

He shouldn't resign until there is proof who's in the photo...Fair is Fair..

yet he apologized ... hmmm 🤔

This guy reminds me of the Capt. of the Titanic.

Hello!!!!!

He needs to resign. The argument that this was in 1984 does not matter. First, he apologized for the photo. Then he denies it is him This, to me, signals that he may also be a liar.

🤥 another Brett Kavanaugh

He's the one under the hood then and the one under the hood now....

Let he who is without Sin, cast the first Stone!

This story is B/S, I even go as far as to call out the media & SenateDems all this fake outrage. I believe everyone calling for him to resign is reverse racism & the ONLY reason Dems & media want him to resign so can make history w/Virginia only state with second Black Gov. SAD

At first he was like ....ok....sorry ‘bout that. Now it’s I just remembered it wasn’t me. Good lord.

Oh come on. The picture is on his page, he’s running scared. He’s got to resign. Politically he’s a disaster. Democrats need to step up, with a united voice an demand his resignation. There’s no coming back from this.

He does not need to resign - he has apologized for it - move on people. He wasnt in the photo

Ah yes, the Shaggy defense.

Just okd picture for his page ok

Resign!

He does not respect the democratic platform and he is acting more like a republican SHAME on him for choosing power over people GovernorVA is turning into a Trumptonian Lies RalphNortham must resign now

Is that what his mouth said?

Sad!

I'm in no way over looking what he did but, weren't we just talking about Steve King, and his fuckery. If this governor, is going to resign then he shouldn't be the only outed bigot to do so. bootkingtoo

No matter how long ago this incident happened it is unbecoming for a Governor to preside over the state elected by voter's after this information has come to light.

This man just walked all over our intelligence. Who would do something like this and not remember it And what does “conman mean”. RESIGN!!

His continued refusal to resign will come back to haunt the democrats. The parties silence will enforce their reputation as a party of hypocrites and acceptance of its ok for racism within. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Nancy Pelosi why are you so silent?

He is innocent and for the angry blacks get smarter and stop trying to paint everything black until you help everyone fairly

It was on his yearbook page. Something is truly rotten in The State of the Union.

He need to resign. None of this flip flop bs. It was him , noe it isn't!

Then produce the two guys that are in the racist outfits

It’s not him. He’s the guy dressed as black Hitler taking the photo.

But Governor admits he wore black face for Michael Jackson so he’s racist and hurtful so he needs to resign. Black face as Michael Jackson is just as bad!

I remember two movies 'Black like me & another when a white student made himself black to get into college! Have those two movies been banned? One actor dead & the other still making tv appearances. Should they be condemned too. Whats n the heart & actions now? U can do MJ in B/W

Really? He should resign over a a pic. in a school year book? Grow the hell up. Trump can go on tv and mock a senator calling her Pocahontas, and Republicans have nothing to say about that. Indigenous lives matter too.

That's his excuse? He got his blackface photos mixed up Dude, you gotta go!

When evaluating disturbing behavior by politicians we must distinguish between incidents that reveal character flaws vs. lapses in judgment, and of lapses in judgment, between recent contemporary incidents and distant, perhaps transient in incident events.

I remember back when Northam was running for governor, and a lot of people thought he wasn’t exciting enough. If only we had known.

What racist thing has he done lately? This black face thing is another subject. Jesus should be very upset. He now appears in BLACK & WHITE FACE. None of the pictures of Jesus is his true image!! Whats in the heart now should be considered. If not Jesus says damn all 4 my faces!

I guess when trump says shithole countries, mocks the disabled, name calls; the door is opened and we don’t have to be better? When are we gonna wake up? It’s called GD Accountability for your actions and words and there’s a price to pay. OR SHOULD BE.

Who dat then

His public service record speaks for him, more than the 37-years old picture. He answers to the VA voters, NOT to the MSNBC so-called experts & commentators. I voted for him. I like what he is doing to my state, the rest of you: STAY OUT OF IT!

another win for racists.

How long can this last?

Let’s be clear I’m black and very pro black however I say give the governor another chance we have racist republicans in office who said things in the last 90 days and they’re still in office why did this picture surface whom did the Governor upset oh I get it he like the black

So much outrage over a pic but no outrage over the killings of babies.

Had he not followed up with this I'd say forgive and forget yet he did something racist again! He needs to resign and I'm extremely liberal democrat!

The gov. should not resign. Just as the MAGA hat boys were judged before the truth came out, this is exactly what is happening to the gov. Before he had a chance to defend himself, people were calling for his resignation.

Would Planned Parenthood or NARAL allow him to resign? He's their golden child. No one will notice his hands dripping with blood.

he admitted in his speech that he wore black face during his college years to go to a party dressed as Michael Jackson. Why doesn’t that matter?

One or the other. Resign, or use your white power and privilege to make reparations in every way you can for the horrors black people live with that you have never had to experience.

Now you lie, RESIGN NOW!

He publicly supports the abortion bill to murder a baby after birth? No outcry from the far left? But 30 yr old pictures are worse than hell it self? Americans, can you clearly see how screwed up the far left is? Is this the America we all know and love?

I've watched the conference myself so far & I believe him. I believe him partly because I have never seen either college or high school yearbook pictures of myself.

Yeah right! HE said sorry. Now he denilys it? If it was a Conservative FakeNews FakeNewsMedia Like pmsmbc Would no give a pass like this bigot!

He should resign. Period.

This information was available to the public before he was elected. Now he’s the Governor. Voters and the media should perhaps be more through when candidates run for office. There are no ”do over’s.”

Taking a page from Trump’s play book

Please step down.

SteveKing must go first. GOP

He’s not pictured but loved it for his yearbook page from medical school. I’d understand high school but, let me say this again, this was medical school. Why do medical schools even have yearbooks?

Forgive people it was 34 yrs .Why destroy his family. 2 wrong do not make a right.TWITTER sux, attacks & kills there family's well being.Forgive people. It is as disgusting that u can not as is the racist picture he supposedly is in.I don't know him and am not racis Forgive

He should stay. The best way to prove that Hearts change is to show that His has. Think about it this way in order to change the hearts and minds of people it would have to start with one and He would be the one. Hiding or running from his past mistakes would stunt growth.

you moved a person forward to the Supreme Court that was accused of far worse...think about it...you elected someone to the highest office in this nation who has literally told you who he is on national TV think about it...save it.

Leave the guy alone..I pissed naked in public when I was one month old..may 1949

REGARDLESS OF TRUMP & MINIONS, GOP, RACISTS, & ALL OTHER HYPOCRITES THAT HAVE DONE SIMILAR/SOMETHING WRONG & GOT AWAY WITH IT WITH NO CONSEQUENCES/CRITICISM... MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO ME. RIGHT IS RIGHT. YOU'RE ON TV PULLING A KAVANAUGH. YOU NEED TO GO !!! OWN IT, APOLOGIZE, GO.

Don,t resign.there is no prof its is you and just do like Trump does and say its not me,its a fake picture

Given JoyAnnReid ‘s questionable online comments, and the fact that TheRevAl was calling people “fa**ot” on television in the late 80’s, I’m having a hard time with their standing in judgment on this. I’m not pro-Northam. I’m anti-hypocrisy.

Racist demarcate.

Wow, the spin is in! Don’t believe what you see believe what I say.

He's the one in the KKK hood. He needs to go now if he has any principles.

Really since when ? Though he confimed it was him, and attempted to apologize.

In addition to the call for this governor to resign, can we also look at the medical school that allowed this yearbook photo to be published? As a 2005 Med school graduate, I would be mortified to find out that my alma mater allowed such a photo. VirginiaGovernor

yeah.. right! Wasn’t it him yesterday? He admitted it!

Republicans are perfectly comfortable with racists and misogynists in their ranks. Democrats should never be ok with this. Northam - time to take your leave.

He needs to resign!

What gives the Media and any Democrat in Office the right to decide that? Just MIND YOUR BUSINESS and let VIRGINIA CITIZENS DECIDE and MAKE THAT CALL. STAY OUT OF IT cnn FoxNews JoyAnnReid JoeNBC jaketapper HardballChris SRuhle DNC KamalaHarris

DEMOCRAT Virginia Gov. Northam.... You can bet the farm that if he were a republican MSNBC would have mentioned it in this headline.

Then why did you apologize for doing it if you didn't? Pulling a Kavanaugh huh?

Insert sure jan

Recall.

Bullshit. It's him. He owned up to it then had his KKK second thoughts. It was him, he wouldn't have said it was if it wasn't.

This is Soo sad when someone you are looking up to was found in a tight corner. If I have to take a decision on this ..... sincerely I will forgive him. He is not like that anymore.

But how is it KAVANAUGH got a PASS for his bad behavior? Inciting it was years ago..we all did things we weren’t proud of in our younger years..for crying out loud, get over it..move on..more things to worry about..since when did we become so sensitive?

He’s not being honest.

Video of Gov Northam..... 😆

Northam will tout the history of his “accomplishments”; he will decry the racist photo; he will defy those who say he has not honorably “served the ppl” during his career. He will do all these things bec his White Male Privilege convinces him that he should remain VA’s governor.

😂🤣Dems must be going crazy!

Why isn’t anyone calling on trump to resign?

Hey Hey Ho Ho, RalphNortham 's GOT to GO! First, you're sorry. Now, it's not you in the photo. LOL. Either way, you need to go. This is an insult black people and you have no credibility. There is no place for this kind of insensitivity, bigotry, & racism. RalphNorthamResign

He admited it already then some aide decided he should argue it's not him. He's a transparent racist seeking to hold onto power. blacklivesmatter deserves better from TheDemocrats and don't get it. briannawu deray tariqnasheed

He caught a bad a case of demoKKKratitus

Another liar... Get him out!

he’s going to have to prove it, so let’s hear from the year book staff, can’t believe i’m even saying that, the fing yearbook staff, omfg we’re all back in fing hs

Doesn't matter what party, what ethnicity, what gender. Racism is disgusting! Northam claims to be uncertain if he's in that photo or not. This video may tell us all, a little more about Gov Northam than he will.

has lost my viewership. You were the last cable news program I trusted. You had Kayleigh Mcenany on a panel to scream over the the rest of the panelists when they're turn to talk came up. I thought I was watching Fox or CNN. I'm out. All print now, you people are phony. 🙋‍♂️

So he forgot he's not in the picture he apologized for being in that he never before revealed that he was in. Got it. Nothing to see here folks.

His apology was an admission. Bad enough. But now he says it wasn’t him in the photo. Add LIAR to the list. He CANNOT go on and must resign. Lying racists do not belong in public office, in EITHER party.

He might have had an opportunity to repair his reputation by stepping down and working hard to earn back the trust of his constituents, but he's blown that all to hell. Shameful.

Does is matter that he is not in the photo? Northam chose a photo that demeans Black folks which infers that he has racist tendencies.

Wonder how long this is going to play out. Ugh

Selfish much GovernorVA? You are hurting your constituents and our Party. Resign.

We have been trying to change people opinion about race for a long time, now we have someone that changed his opinion from what it was 35 years ago and we are going to burn him at the stake?

Nope. He needs to go.

And also this ...

Look, that shit is only working for tRump, 'I said it' but 'I never said it' etc, etc, dude, if it's not you, why apologize? You sure you're not a Republican? 🤔 ✌🇬🇧

U said he was about to speak, went to black then a commercial. What’s going on?

No no no, Northam must go!

That says more about him than the racist photos.

He should be kept comfortable

Okay. I’ll take the Virginia governor’s word for it. But if he is lying, all bets are off. We will blow up this situation on Twitter. Like no one has ever seen.

DO NOT DESTROY The great reputation VMI VMInews by trying to have them deceive the American public! The Alumni knows full well it was you! RalphNortham do the right thing! Resign! LGJustinFairfax can lead just fine!

I believe there’s more pictures of him in blackface! I wouldn’t be surprised if this same person who brought forth this yearbook picture doesn’t have more evidence!

Watching your network only to see Northam press conference. Will it be a Bud Dwyer moment?

So for a lot of people is ok for him to sign a law to kill an infant but is inconceivable to see an old pic of him from 35 years ago !! Who’s life is at risk with that pic !? How many innocent people are going to die for him being stupid when he was young !!

Why aren’t you putting the “D” behind his name? You’re always quick to identify any negative GOP so why not the DEMOCRAT racist?

toast resign

been trying 2watch News all morning all they got is Gov of VA pathetic enough already move on in desperation watching golf 🏌️

Bruhhhhh...you are just making it worse. Step down ASAP

Why is it in his page?

Just switch parties already. Not sure we want you anyway

Jim Jordan anyone

Ridiculous. He has no credibility. How can he lead?

Northam yesterday: I am deeply sorry for the decision I made to appear in this photo and for the hurt that decision caused then and now. Northam today: It wasn't me. Shaggy NorthamResign

. Ask Christine Margaret Blasey Ford... she’ll make up the right answer! . TotalBullshitNorthamGoFundHim

The appalling behavior RalphNortham has displayed over this whole affair is damaging to Virginia citizens. VMI alumni know he was in the photo & he will not convince us any different! TheDemocrats should make home step down!

RacistDemocrats

Northam's refusal to resign is the heighth of White Privilege.

Because he deserves it, dammit. 🙄 Ralph, this is not going to be pretty. Better go now.

Sorry dude you said it was you..you cant take it back...

Governor you obviously spoke with your lawyers and they seem to have convinced you that denying that you are indeed one of the men in the photo, is a good “legal” strategy. Well Gov, I got news for you, your legal defense will fall flat. So you will still have to resign ASAP

Guess what his nickname was at VMI ? He’s exposed. Endorsed by Booker, Harris, Pelosi, and the rest of the KKK.

His attorney says can't prove it's him in the pic, that is until they find the photographer that took the pics. Somebody out there will want their 15mins of fame and will eventually come forward to confirm or deny it is him.

Really who would not remember getting ready for that shit show.😤

Wow. He’s going to try and lie his way out of this?

So first he says it was him, now he says it wasn’t. What are we to believe? Just resign already.

But it was him yesterday! He’s lost all credibility.

The Russians hacked his yearbook

Power is everything to these racist Democrats. Just lie ... it comes natural. Remember, the Democrat Party is the party of slavery and the KKK.

If Steve King, Mitch McConnell,Lindsey Graham didn’t resign neither should RalphNortham

Not good! First yousaid you were in the photo & now no!! Losing more credibility by the minute~no moral authority~for the good of all, take responsibility & Resign..for the good of the country, the party. Dems cannot tolerate this at all!! NorthamShouldResign RalphNortham

Yeah, he wasn't in the picture. He TOOK the picture and included it as editor of his own yearbook page!

He's got a case of 'Trumpitis'. Say one thing one day, then lie about it the next. Gotta go, dude...

Ridiculous....he already apologized which is an admission of guilt.

Absolute stupidity, but even more amazing is the fact those pictures were published in a high school yearbook! speaks volumes about that community!

Lol

Has anyone asked why he selected the photo for his page?🤔

PAST 24 HOURS: Cons vs. Libs

Could he have gone any lower, apparently yes.

What about “Coonsman”?

to be fair, all he needs to do is declare which day he lied about the picture-today or yesterday

The way he's changing his 'statements' he does not belong in Democrat party. Should be forced out of the party.

I guess that Cracked is looking for a Civil War ( Race War ) and it will be the Great opportunity for Russia and China to seize United States under their controls

If one of those pictured IS Northam,somebody out there who knows which one. If neither is Northam, then there are two people out there who know the truth--maybe. This whole thing is manufactured, and is like Covington all over again. Sentence first, evidence later-- or never.

It doesn’t matter if he is one of the people in the photo or not. It’s on HIS page. With HIS name running across the top. Resign. Party affiliation makes no difference. Racism is WRONG.

so now he's a liar?

Very Trumpian of him!🙄

I agree that He should resign, as should King. What is good for one, is good for the other....

Well of course not, he is a Democrat.

PLEASE STOP HAVING KAyLEIGHmcenany speak!! She is the rudest anti American anti everything anti... 👿🤮☠️💩%€~\\]%*?•&/ I just turn the channel when I see her. She makes me embarrassed to be a woman

If he wasn't he should have said yesterday!

GTFO

an apology would have been his best defense- the denial will finish him off...🙍🏻‍♀️

what a trump/kavanaugh thing to do. JUST lie about it and believe it will go away. How does one NOT KNOW at first if one is wearing blackface or a KKK uniform. BUT it doesn't even matter whether he is in photo. HE PUT IT ON HIS PAGE!!!!! To REPRESENT HIMSELF!

1st he admitted 2 it so full of remorse then someone(one of his Klan buddies?)whispered in his ear “they can’t prove it’s you”now he’s recanted even tho his college nickname was “C**nman”. There’s no sidestepping that salient detail. If it looks like a duck & quacks like a duck..

Sure.

Then why was he apologizing? He has since had PR say hey I am hearing if you did not apologize, no one could recognize you. The thing is his classmates will come to the surface. They will want their 15 min of fame, unless on CNN, then 2 weeks.

next step...

Liar

Maybe Northam TOOK the picture.

Then why did he apologize?

How are we suppose to believe you after this👇statement?

BS! Governor Fairfax=Poetic Justice!

It’s always something...

I’m resigning. Now say that three times fast. It’s like pulling off a band aid.

Another diversion for Donald.

To me his reversal was a punch in the stomach. He actually paid for the page. Now we are in the present. No admittance of guilt.

Why? He can't survive and he shouldn't.

Racism, hatred and TREASON of the southern states supported by senatemajldr Should he resign too?

Virginia is better than this!!!! Wasn’t Gov Wilder in office about the same time this was taken

VA Democratic here urging Gov Northam to resign.

Got it. So now he's a liar too

STOP! America is suffering enough already!

He's waiting for a parachute from Dems and if 1 doesn't come he will pull a Lieberman.

He’s BLT without the mayo

washingtonpost nytimes AP PressSec VP GovernorVA RalphNortham StephenCurry30 KingJames Being that I live in Ohio I don't know a thing about Mr Northam however I can say this with confidence 'its not who you were yesterday, its who you are today'

Liar.

Whatever “Coonman”

So he is not in the picture but he thought that would be a good pic to place in his yearbook; that is even worse!

He’d better hold a town hall meeting and televise it. Address that culture at the top or it’s not going to change. Do that!

Ralph Northam 👇

As the governor has he acted in a manner that indicates he is a racist or has he discriminated against others? That should be the standard not what stupid he made have done in his youth. People should have the opportunity to make amends for their sins.

This is not an option resign.

yesterday, when you admitted to being a stupid med student, although of a man's age, i might have forgiven stupidity.....but today, you backtracked, lost all credibility, and now you need to resign.

So he admits to the pic and apologizes and now says he wasn't in the pic. Maybe he should resign for being incompetent.

Deny, deny, deny. That is the first thing they teach politicians!!!

Why was his nickname Coonman?

Then someone must have hacked his yearbook page and placed that pic there without his knowledge.

Nor should the newly elected Governor of Virginia resign, having been elevated by the Votes of the Citizens of the Virginian Commonwealth to his position as VirginiaGovernor Certainly he and Democrats should backtrack on policies of pro-death 'medicine' & accept Halloween

He checked his calendar guys... wasn’t there.

So he apologized for something that didn’t happen? Doesn’t add up. My guess, he did dress up KKK, but the pic isn’t of him and now he thinks he can backtrack. Nope

Him or not is immaterial. He owns it. It’s on his page. And his nickname had the word “Coon” in it! Disgusting and disqualifying. He should have done op research long ago. I voted 4 him and donated. If voters had known he would not have been a candidate. NorthamResign

This is the same guy who was said to support killing babies even in the third trimester if a horrible bill would have actually got out of committee.

Okkk we believe you 👎🏻

Wouldn't be surprised Northam tries to say its Squi and PJ after skis in the racist picture that's why he's not resigning.

GovernorVA is a white supremacist who needs to resign.

Will mob justice be applied to democrat too?

If you truly did this you have a lot of shame to deal with. I think it is no different than the evolution of some homophobic politicians and news people. Education! You need to step up to help fight racism like never before. I wouldn't resign.

OMG. You just know, *somebody* has the receipts and will be coming forth with them, momentarily.

So now if his party and the people of Virginia allow this bullshit to stand, don’t ever crack your lips to condemn anyone else when it comes to bigotry or racism or oppression or prejudice 🤷🏿‍♂️

InSpiteOfTrump I guess he must have thought 'What would Trump do in this situation'?🙄

Stop giving kayleigh mcenany a platform. Thanks

He’s been there before but just not in that photo. We call BS

InSpiteOfTrump Good!

First, he says it's him then he says it isn't once people demand he resign? Yeah, that's believable.

But yesterday it was him - and he was sorry he did it. I'm confused. Someone check his phone to see if he had a call from Roger 'deny everything' Stone.

If he truly believes it’s not him then fight. If it later turns out that it is, what he’s experiencing now will be cake compared to the ridicule he will face then.

At least it gives pundits something to blabber about other than tRump.

Northam's story smells to high heaven!

If racist LBJ would of resigned, we’d never would of had the civil rights act, Medicare or other liberal programs. Remember Spitzer, Franken etal? We always eat our own. As a liberal democrat for 68 years, I can tell you my youth wasn’t perfect.

Of course he won’t resign.
