Appealing To The Horrible People Demographic
-
Michigan Republican Senate candidate John James is running a TV ad that shows a swastika. But it's not to decry Naziism, or to... well, nobody knows WHAT it's doing there, because it just appears on a board in a school scene, and there's no mention of it or commentary or anything. It's just.. there. And since James himself is African-American, it's doubly odd. But he's a Trump supporter, so there's that. And asked about it, his campaign just said this is all a media tactic to divert attention from something or other, because they don't have an answer. If it was an accident or nobody noticed it (not likely), they could just say so. Or they could apologize. Instead, this, because we live in a time when a sizable percentage of the public is happy to accept Nazi ideas if they think they're getting a tax cut or conservative judges. Weird.
