Donald Trump tweets image of Nazi soldiers inside the U.S. flag, then deletes tweet

[silvershadow]

On Tuesday, Donald Trump (or, should we say, Donald Trump's Twitter account), tweeted one more plug for the GOP presidential candidate's campaign.

#MakeAmericaGreatAgain, the hashtag read. Then came an image of the American flag, the stars resplendently overlaid over a portrait of Trump gazing sternly at something, the stripes over motifs of American triumphalism: cash money, the White House, and soldiers.

An all-caps caption declared: "We need real leadership. We need results. Let's put the U.S. back into business!"

Except, there was a problem. As Twitter users quickly pointed out, the soldiers in the bottom-right of the image were not American. They weren't even from an Allied military. They were German World War II soldiers.

1. Foreplay tease for his base

2. I'm starting to wonder if

Donald Trump isn't the greatest Democratic plant in the history of political dirty tricks.

He provides red meat for the idiots, forgets to use the Reince Pribus approved code words to make sure they can say what they want but avoid trouble.

Unfortunately it's just Donald Trump being his usual moronic self. Fortunately he's driving a stake through the shriveled heart of the 2016 Republican field and I love every second of it.
