I don't think it worked.

    I think his takeaway was that Yunkin was exactly the type of GOP gov the Lincoln Project loves, so this race was win/win for them

      Youngkin spent his whole career at and was CEO of the Carlyle Group, an investment company who deserve a True Anon mini-series if they don't already have one (the bin Laden family were notable clients in the late 90s 👁️)

        I'm a little embarrassed that I only know the Carlyle Group as the company that funded the purchase of Taylor Swift's masters (and who are connected to like a bunch of war crimes, but I couldn't tell you which)

          It went both ways. The bin Ladens had investments in Carlyle Group (famously one family member was at a Carlyle Group conference on 9/11), and Carlyle Group had a lot of holdings in defense companies, many of which probably contracted with the bin Ladens. It's all a ponzi scheme folks.

      I don't think these people wanted Youngkin to win. I think Virginians were disgusted by the deceit.
