As I’m sure you’ve noticed, former President Donald Trump has recently had his knickers all in a twist over Virginia gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin. Lately, he’s released statements trying to claim that he’s pretty close to the GOP candidate, and the pair share a lot of views and beliefs.
That’s two statements just today from Donald Trump on his “Complete and Total Endorsement” of Glenn Youngkin.
He will also headline a tele-rally.

However, it seems as though if you were to ask Youngkin, he wouldn’t tell the same tale.

Yesterday, the disgraced, desperate, one-term, twice-impeached former guy held a “tele-rally” for Youngkin in an effort to get out ahead of the votes in today’s gubernatorial election in Virginia. Washington Post reporter Laura Vozzella revealed on Twitter yesterday that the pre-election virtual event would be closed to the press:
Tonight’s tele-rally with Trump for @GlennYoungkin & the rest of the GOP ticket will be closed press, says @jfradioshow.

That alone was enough to make people wonder what was going on at this little “tele-rally” and why they wouldn’t want it reported on. But, as it turns out, it seems as though it may be because Youngkin doesn’t want to be caught dead anywhere near the washed-up former President.
According to further reporting, the Republican pair ended up the center of quite a bit of mockery when it was discovered that Youngkin refused to even join the “tele-rally” event with Donald Trump — apparently not wanting to be seen anywhere near the guy, even on a Zoom conference call.
Trump wasn’t invited to World Series, asked to go, and then lied about being invited.
Trump wasn’t invited to Virginia by Glenn Youngkin, said he was coming anyway, was denied, and is doing a “tele-rally” instead — and Youngkin still isn’t joining him.

The jokes on Twitter were plentiful:
LOL even #GlennTrumpkin knows everything #Trump touches DIES that’s why he’s distancing himself from the proposed tele rally tonight and he’s not interested in Beavis & Butthead @DonaldJTrumpJr either

It’s like the Youngkin people are super embarrassed that Trump will say something that’ll tank his chances at the very last moment.
I mean, I’ve never heard of a “closed press” rally

Just one question, Donnie. Do you ever get tired of being such a monumental embarrassment? Just curious.
