"We need to do everything we can to turn that 'blue wave' into a blue grave."

A Monday campaign event for Corey Stewart, the Republican Senate candidate from Virginia and Minnesota man who is very concerned about the destruction of Confederate monuments, featured a speaker who urged conservatives “to turn that ‘blue wave’ into a blue grave.”

According to a video tweeted by Ian Sams, communications director for Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA), Stewart was introduced in Lynchburg by an unidentified woman who said, “We need to do everything we can to turn that ‘blue wave’ into a blue grave.

The “blue wave” is a popular nickname for the expected backlash to President Donald Trump and Republicans in next week’s midterm elections.

Former Republican election official Brian W. Schoeneman pointed out the comments were made by Jennifer Brown, chair of the Republican Committee in Virginia’s 6th district.
