| Donald Trump |
As folks in Virginia head to the polls today to vote for their next governor, Donald Trump took time out during his trip to Asia to criticize the Democrat, Dr. Ralph Northam, as "weak."
Ralph Northam will allow crime to be rampant in Virginia. He’s weak on crime, weak on our GREAT VETS, Anti-Second Amendment....and has been horrible on Virginia economy. Vote @EdWGillespie today!
Trump also went on to note the "high crime" and "poor economic performance" in Virginia.

.@EdWGillespie will totally turn around the high crime and poor economic performance of VA. MS-13 and crime will be gone. Vote today, ASAP!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 7, 2017
The only problem is: Northam actually IS a veteran, thus opening Trump - a draft dodger - up to a game of "glass houses."
Ralph Northam is a veteran. He spent 8 years in the U.S. Army, rose to the rank of Major. https://t.co/CWOgTGKZ4w— Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) November 7, 2017
Man with “bone spurs” calls actual veteran weak on vets https://t.co/gfTlkf42OT— Judd Legum (@JuddLegum) November 7, 2017
What @realDonaldTrump is doing here is called swift boating. @RalphNortham is a veteran. Trump is a draft-dodging chickenhawk. Vote Northam. https://t.co/KQl3N7hI1X— Will Fischer (@will_c_fischer) November 7, 2017
Northam volunteered to serve in the US military. Trump, still an avid golfer, used a medical excuse to avoid the Vietnam draft https://t.co/gBILLPxDnZ— John Harwood (@JohnJHarwood) November 7, 2017
Ralph Northam is literally a vet himself.— Matt McDermott (@mattmfm) November 7, 2017
Donald Trump is a draft dodger.
Stop the BS. Vote Northam. Fuck Trump. https://t.co/oX5Ux2xZLF
And others had some "context" for those "high crime" and "poor economic performance" comments:
Whatever the case for or against Gillespie, VA has something like the 6th lowest crime rate and 14th lowest unemployment rate in the nation. https://t.co/kb0nS3M4x8— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) November 7, 2017
Virginia’s crime rate is among the lowest in the nation. For Virginia and the nation, may we choose truth and hope over fear and lies. https://t.co/Bac757hQxi— Evan McMullin (@Evan_McMullin) November 7, 2017
