It looks like a family holiday card except that the woman and children posing with Republican Derrick Anderson are not his wife or his offspring.
Anderson, who running in a close race for Virginia’s seventh congressional district, was seen in another image seated around the dining table with the same woman and three girls.
The images came to light in an article by The New York Times, headlined “G.O.P. Candidates, Looking to Soften Their Image, Turn to Their Wives,” which reported how “male Republicans struggling to appeal to female voters concerned about their records on reproductive rights are unleashing their spouses to make the pitch on their behalf.”
However Anderson, who is childless, engaged to be married and lives alone with his dog, sought to borrow the wife and children from a longtime friend in an apparent effort to appear as a family man.

The perpetuation of the myth that you are less of a person for not having a family or children is absolutely fucking disgusting
But it is hilarious when the person perpetrating it does not have a family or children
Not when those who need to hear it don’t hear it and/or don’t care to hear it
Every single life adds value to the world. Splitting people into groups then discounting those groups as less than or useless is a recipe for failure. Anyone who does not see that is not qualified for a leadership position.
Tim Scott gave up the ruse as soon as his Presidential campaign ended. These guys are so stupid and obvious it’s painful.
Quiverfull movement.
