      Edit: You didn’t answer my question. You brought up what’s already been established.


      Skull tattoo. I’m sorry, most Americans are not so familiar with Nazi symbols to identify that specific skull design as Nazi. Swastika, SS, Iron Cross, sure. A skull and crossbones? Wouldn’t clock it. I thought it was a generic “bad guy” symbol in the comedy sketch you have a screenshot from. And he’s had it covered up.

      If he knew, why would he allow someone to take a picture of it?

      So… your second point is just that you don’t agree with America’s involvement with those wars at all. Which is less to do with this guy than with America’s choices of war. Valid, I agree, but not a signpost that he’s a Nazi. Unless all Americans involved in those were secretly Nazis.

      Look. I don’t think anyone’s calling him trustworthy or a good person, but this insistence that he must be a Nazi due to a tattoo that he’s gotten covered up, when he’s been so open about all of it is silly.

      He didn’t try to get the photo taken down. He didn’t deny it. He didn’t get belligerant and say he wasn’t going to cover it up just to keep people mad. He’s not pretending he didn’t have it.

      I’m keeping him on my radar, but when US politics is filled with so damn many overt and explicit racists and Nazis that are so damn comfortable being mask off, I’m not ready to stomp down on this guy yet.

        Ya, let’s not make a big deal out of this tattoo, seems like that will really help with this situation.

          Go join .world, DNC plant. The 77yo the losers in DNC leadership want to run is the singularly least popular governor in the ENTIRE COUNTRY. They will lose, but at least your overlords will never have to see anyone to the left of Ronald Reagan win a DNC primary north of Connecticut,while Susan Collins keeps her seat.

              If you think the 77yo governor of Maine with 100% name ID and lower approval than Susan Collins can win, or are just buying the DSCC propaganda, I think you’re the one confused.
