Terry McAuliffe: ‘I Have Zero Indication’ that Ralph Northam Is a Racist

‘That photo that was in that yearbook was so offensive to the African-American community that I can’t be in their shoes’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
TAPPER: "But has he also been a racist?"
McAULIFFE: "I have zero indication of as I say, family doctor, had military service, had been a state senator, ran for lieutenant governor, and literally at my side. Historic investment in K-12 to make sure that underserved schools had the right teachers. And to make sure every child had a nutritious breakfast working with my wife Dorothy on that. When I did the restoration of rights it was sued by the Republicans to stop me from doing that. Ralph was always at my side. So I can't answer it, Jake. I'm telling you. I'm heartbroken. I don't know how -- I have been -- on Friday, I just don't -- I can't explain to you my feeling, but doesn't matter how Terry Mcauliffe feels. That photo that was in that yearbook was so offensive to the African-American community that I can't be in their shoes. And we've just got to get past"
