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

"I have been walking around with fascist insignia tattooed on my body for years without knowing" isn't really any better than consciously getting it.

Ignorance is far easier to fix than hate, so to me it's better. I'd rather deal with somebody who was ignorant than somebody who has all the information and chooses to be a Nazi.

the problem here is you are valuing what's easier for you over what the objective truth is.

I'm not any of those things. Either engage in good faith or disengage.
