Idk what is most surprising here:

  • he hasn't gotten it covered (apparently had since 2006)
  • this made it through the pod save edit to be shown on their video
  • pod save had him on

Wonder what the excuses will be this time on why it's okay he's still in the race as if he wins probably will be another fetterman.

Or maybe I'm so conspiracy brained I wonder if this is a way to make the ancient governor running look like the best candidate

There's always a chance someone could change their world view and political positions but that chance approaches zero when the guy has a nazi tattoo on his chest 19 years after first getting it

Agreed can hope for change but even after the Blackwater stuff came up he didn't really try to apologize or distance himself from it

He claims he didn't know until this came out that it had any Nazi connection which I could believe but he better be getting it removed or covered ASAP.
