@newrepublic Does anyone at TNR know who Che is, what he did?….

Do they care?

Behold The New Republic’s take on that disgraceful photo of Obama in front of the Che mural in Cuba:

This photo of Obama in front of a monument to Che is the right wing's giddiest nightmare: https://t.co/fRadnwORUv pic.twitter.com/Dpao2Fqcsy

Here’s a screenshot of TNR’s little blurb:

It’s cute how they’re so dismissive of concerns that President Obama is glorifying a mass murderer.

And by “cute,” we mean “despicable.”

@NewRepublic Once upon a time, your magazine opposed murderous totalitarians. Now you just hate Republicans.

Guess human rights are for the icky “right wing” now.

Darn right-wingers don't want a president who's cool with a mass-murdering evil bastard. https://t.co/TO0D75m8lx

The @NewRepublic doesn’t care that Che was a brutal murderer. It was all in service of liberalism. https://t.co/QdevImYk3t
