    Hit a paywall. What does it say?

    It says it would suck if you were in an electric vehicle and got stuck in the Virginia 95 nightmare from the snowstorm on Monday. Hundreds of vehicles were stranded on a 120 mile stretch of 95...

    Yeah, it would suck. It would also suck if you ran out of gas.

    If nobody drove anywhere and only went within walking distance of their home during weather events, this problem could have been completely avoided.

    Yes, Mr. Biden should make this a mandate.

    We didn't see this sort of problem with Mr. Trump in the whitehouse.

          Jonah Goldberg did, I know. Boy did he catch it, LOL.

              The governor is responsible for a heavy snow?

              Edit: Especially a governor-elect?

                  @mik notice he did NOT call out Governor Blackface.

                      In all fairness, he didn’t call out Youngkin, really, either. However, the Only-Trumpers used it as an opportunity to attack and he tried to extract himself from the whole thing.

                      I’m far closer to Goldberg’s POV on most issues than I am to say MJT, and I think it would be more than a waste to alienate him from the party.

                        Yeah, he did. He implied that the governor was not doing what he should. Before he was sworn in. Goldberg is supposedly a journalist. You check yourself before you wreck yourself.

                          "If I was (sic) Glenn Youngkin, I'd be flooding the zone to get this I-95 crap fixed. DC suburbs are vengeful about this kind of thing.

                          So, yeah, he did call him out, mistakingly thinking that GY was the governor.

                          Alternative read: "The governor isn't doing his job."
