As you most likely know, Democrat Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse has been facing some scrutiny by those not in the mainstream media after being questioned about his membership in a reportedly white-only beach club in Rhode Island.
After all that, Whitehouse’s Twitter account apparently tried to change the subject to climate change with this tweet that looks like an old school late-night test pattern on television:
These stripes show the temperate change in Rhode Island from 1850 – 2020. Not good. pic.twitter.com/Cz3Vojyj07

This pattern would look great on swim trunks for a trip to a whites only beach club. https://t.co/380S8SPcCv

It’s just too perfect, and Whitehouse set it up like a bowling pin.
Dude, we ain’t letting the all white yacht club thing go. Ever. You’re a racist. By your own Party’s definition. 😀 https://t.co/MhNN7Rbl1T

It looks like a beach towel you can use at your whites only club.
