Conservatives on social media criticized President Joe Biden, labeling him an “election denier,” when he referred to Terry McAuliffe, the defeated candidate in the Virginia gubernatorial election against current GOP governor Glenn Youngkin, as the “real” governor of the commonwealth.
“Hello, Virginia, and the real governor, Terry McAuliffe,” Biden told a crowd in Virginia on Tuesday night in an event with VP Kamala Harris discussing abortion access. “My name is Joe Biden. I’m Jill Biden’s husband and Kamala’s running mate. Kidding aside. Thank you, Kamala, for your leadership protecting reproductive freedom and for so much more that you do.”
Conservatives swiftly condemned Biden’s statement.
LibsofTikTok, a prominent conservative voice, expressed on X, “I’ve been told that rejecting election results poses the most significant threat to our democracy. It’s time to initiate impeachment hearings!”
“Sounds like Biden should be removed from the Virginia ballot,” conservative commentator Chris Barron posted on X, referencing Democrat efforts to keep former President Trump off the ballot for “election denial.”
“Subverting democracy, denying elections, basically insurrection.”
“Biden is shuttled across the river to promote nine-month, taxpayer-funded elective abortion-on-demand — and tosses in some casual election denialism while he’s at it,” Fox News contributor Guy Benson posted on X.
“Not sure how our democracy survives this kind of election denialism, tbh,” Outkick.com founder Clay Travis posted on X.
“Joe Biden is an election denier in more ways than one,” GOP Congresswoman Elise Stefanik posted on X.
“Mr. President, I’m right here,” Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin posted on X.
According to a spokesperson from the White House, as reported by Fox News Digital, Biden was “humorously referencing McAuliffe’s past term as governor.”
