MCLEAN, Virginia — McLean, as one of the wealthiest localities in arguably the wealthiest region in the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, is the central nervous system of the Democrats’ uprising. The question here, politically, is whether anti-Trump fever is enough to sink Republican Glenn Youngkin.

Youngkin, a millionaire businessman, had supported President Donald Trump, but he never wanted Trump to come in and campaign for him. These wealthy, white, Republican precincts are exactly the places where Republican repulsion from Trump had created Democratic majorities. So, was Youngkin (whom Democrat Terry McAuliffe and the national news media had tried to portray as a Trump stand-in) going to do OK in these places?
