Did any of you commenters read past the headline? He's saying we should have stood up to Hitler sooner, but instead ended up forced to make the costly, brutal D-Day landings. He is advocating for us to stand up to Putin sooner.

This is how dog whistles used to be done. He can send a message to neo-nazis while having plausible deniability with further context. He's able to both condemn and support D-Day at once.

I read his comments, and it sounds like he's advocating for appeasement. Which is much worse than a gaffe.

Unless he is standing up to Trump and that faction of his own party, it doesn't really matter

Easy there, Lindsay. You're speaking out against Trump's boss. Trump and his supporters won't like that.
