…the left takes a back seat to no one.
I’ve written that many times in recent months and I’m writing it again today.
Here’s the latest example, via Alec Schemmel and Andew Mark Miller’s article for Fox News:
A sign featuring coded language threatening President Donald Trump and equating his supporters with Nazis greeted guests to an event last week headlined by Michigan Democrat gubernatorial front-runner Jocelyn Benson and U.S. Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow.
The sign, displayed by local Democrats, said “MAGA=NAZI” and “86 47.” The number “86” originated in restaurants to mean “cancel” or “throw out,” but in underworld slang it is frequently used as a call sign for murdering someone. The number “47” is commonly interpreted as denoting the 47th president of the United States, Trump.
Lenawee Democratic Chair Bill Swift (third from left) and 5th District Democratic Chair Pat Ulanowicz (fourth from left) can be seen posing for a photo next to the sign outside the John D. Dingell Unity Dinner. (Lenawee County Democratic Party Facebook)
Swift, the Lenawee Democratic Chair posing in the picture with the “MAGA=NAZI” and “86 47” language, got in hot water in January for calling into a radio show and saying Trump supporters should be executed.
I rest my case.
