A photo of presidential candidate Hillary Clinton shaking hands with what looks like an ordinary Joe disappeared from her Twitter feed very suddenly Tuesday evening. Fortunately, Twitchy and a few other followers were able to catch a screenshot before it vanished.
So what’s the problem?
No problem, really, unless you happen to notice the tattoo of the word “white” on the man’s arm and let your imagination fill in the rest. The possibilities were apparently enough to make someone running Clinton’s Twitter feed nervous enough to delete it.
Hillary looks very happy to get the support of this guy with a "WHITE" tattoo on his forearm. pic.twitter.com/06scTZrY28

. @HillaryClinton Ha! The tattoo on his right arm says "White". Does the one on his left say "Pride"?

Maybe it says, “Water.”

.@Chilp It appears to have been an image she posted, but then deleted when they saw the "WHITE" tattoo on his arm. The font doesn't help.

Did Hillary Clinton just tweet a photo of her shaking hands with a guy with a White Power tattoo? https://t.co/9SVj1WlikH

Maybe the man’s a perfectly nice person whose name just happens to be “White.”
Devil's advocate: Could simply be a classic "White" forearm tattoo with nothing on the other arm? Maybe a last name?

But does any candidate want to even take that chance in 2015? Not this one.
