Oh the Supreme Court has forgiven everything he has done so far.

It could be that, or it could also be that the Nazis copied some of this stuff from the US. They admired our treatment of black people and borrowed a lot from us.

Yea, it is unambiguously a Nazi tattoo. It is also just as accurate to say it is a pirate tattoo or a Vietnam era special forces tattoo. Personally, I just don't see it as automatically damning in itself.

It's the "don't ask for permission, ask for forgiveness" policy.

I can imagine the Klingons having a kind of special forces unit where they do copies like this and if the copy makes it back, the two versions fight to the death to see who the "real" one is.

It would be interesting to have a series where they take the best of the best Starfleet personnel, intentionally copy them with a transporter, and stick them on their own ship to do an extra dangerous, super difficult mission.

Anyone remember during his first term when he had to be talked out of firing missiles into Mexico targeting supposed "drug labs"? This is the same thing but with a more politically acceptable target and fewer people to tell him no.

I suppose you believe the Democratic Peoples Republic of North Korea is democratic too.

I watched the video. I'm not arguing that it is the same skull used by the Nazi SS. I'm arguing that specific skull wasn't created by the Nazis (here it is on an 18th century pirate flag) and it wasn't used last by the Nazis (here it is on a US special forces patch used in Vietnam) .

The US military has used all sorts of eagles, swords, crosses, skulls, double lightning bolts, etc over the years that were also used by Nazis at some point. I just don't think it is reasonable to say he's a Nazi based on this tattoo alone in the absolute absence of any other evidence of any sort.

That link has like 7 different variations of the skull and crossbones that the Nazis used and that covers basically every usage by anyone ever. I just don't buy that he's a closed Nazi and it never came up in all his Reddit shitposting.

If we want to go even deeper with the symbolism, the White House represents the power of the president and he is demolishing it in a shallow attempt to make it more grand.
