    The cynic in me says it’s 100% optics. No one would care if he was sharing Nazi ideology or imagery in a private group chat or internal team communication, but when you post it on Facebook for the world to see, that’s when it becomes a potential PR disaster.

      I agree it’s likely optics but it says volumes about the political tides shifting.

      6 months ago most Republicans would have happily sat down for dinner with Nick Fuentes on camera for a chat about Holocaust History.
