The tweet bore an image that reads, “That awkward moment when… 1. Bernie Sanders admits he’s a democratic socialist 2. Nazis were democratic socialists 3. America fought an entire world war to stop the advance of democratic socialists. Sincerely, sane Americans.”
Under it, Villalba wrote, “The modern Democrat Party is filled with Democratic Socialists and soft socialists. Is this where we are in America?”
Villalba said it was “just a meme floating around on the web.”
But the state’s Democratic party spokesman, Manny Garcia, called the tweet disrespectful, and the problematic comparison of Sanders, who is Jewish, to the Nazis, wasn’t lost on him. He called Villalba “nothing more than another Tea Party Republican politician.”

That's a level of stupidity that I haven't seen in awhile.
