Jeffrey Lord is in serious need of remediation.
I'm not sure whether to slam Jeffrey Lord for using AOL search, or for this tweet. Help me decide.
Uh-oh. Nazis and Hillary Clinton.caught with same flag. https://t.co/FnfysbQ0R1 https://t.co/CwCv26YCHw

If you don't want to click through those searches (and I recommend you don't), the first one is an AOL search for Nazis and American flag.
You get a page full of images like these:
The second search is for Hillary Clinton and American flag. You get a page full of images like these:
So what was his point again? That Nazis and Hillary Clinton both use the American flag, and this somehow means that Trump tweeting a Jewish star from a neonazi source is totally not anything to worry about because...AOL search?
The replies are classic:
@realJeffreyLord Um, Jeff, you realize that shows you searched "Nazi with American flag". Are you okay? What's your fave fruit?

@realJeffreyLord You know, the kindest explanation I can think of is that you must have a brain tumor. Get yourself a CAT scan, maybe.

Seriously, the man has gone farther off the rails than he already was. And we still have months to go before this debacle comes to an end.
