    You’re right, you should vote for the Nazi candidates that are proud to be a Nazis, and are promoting Nazi policies. That will teach those good Dem candidates…to not run for office.

      No, you can pick a candidate to vote for who isn’t a Nazi at all, and if there is none maybe you should get somebody else to run

      There is no such thing as “the better Nazi to vote for”. “Lesser evil” only works when you don’t have the option to replace the evil.

        It’s not about him being a “better” Nazi, or even a Nazi at all. It’s about whether you believe this politician before he’s even elected.

        He’s clearly not a Nazi, and nobody in his history is claiming he’s had a history of Nazi behavior.

        This is about his constituents believing him. If they believe his story, then vote for him. Or not.

        But he’s not a Nazi, he’s a guy who used to be Marine, got drunk, and got a regrettable tattoo. That’s not a rare thing, and it shouldn’t disqualify anyone from anything.

          Yes and there’s the problem, they shouldn’t believe him, because either he’s secretly a Nazi or he’s actually just too damn stupid to be a politician

          You don’t accidentally get Nazi tattoos because you have to search to find tattoo artists willing to do them
