Not the best source, but I can’t post the image alone.

Here’s the image to save you a click on Newsweek.

    True. Just doesn’t seem like a well vetted candidate to me.

    Additionally, it’s just such a low effort, lazy costume if that is what he’s going for.

    It makes me wonder what pushed him to choose this character for his costume, surely there are better, more recognizable choices that could have been made? Unless he wants to be like late stage Soviet Russia.

      If there’s anything we’ve been able to determine this last decade or so… it’s that vetting political candidates simply isn’t something that’s done anymore. The fact this shit is discovered by random people on Twitter instead of from the political parties doing actual research is ridiculous. apparently Opposition Research is just non-existent now.

      Even if he kept the same character, the costume should be more than just a damn t shirt.

      It seems right in line with his beliefs. It seems that he’ll bend his ideology to whatever makes him the most heinous. He’s a living foil.
