BTW, that photo has been selectively cropped. Here's the original that's been hanging on the front entrance wall for 9 years:
It was a history and heritage event at the Army's Heritage and Education Center (not the Yorktown exhibit behind them!), and Doug was asked to dress up in a re-enactor's uniform to do a presentation on the Confederate Army at Gettysburg, where he gives tours. Completely dishonest.
<< This comes one month after nine Republicans vowed to support the Democratic candidate and called Mastriano an “extremist” who threatens American democracy. >>
How exactly he threatens Democracy, they don’t say. They never do. Basically, anyone who’s a threat to New World Order totalitarianism is now a “threat to democracy.”
Chertoff rhymes with...
who’s the guy in the front row without pants?
Chertoff. What a punk.
They just outted themselves as Deep State.
There’s no context on what this all was about… was he participating in a Civil War reenactment? That happens all over here in VA.
I have a Confederate uniform in my costume stash. My son wore it when he was 12 and I believe they are still available for purchase at many costume shops. This is beyond ridiculous and those R’s endorsing D’s over this triviality should be tarred and feathered.
Donald Trump will rally for Doug Mastriano and Mehmet Oz in Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, September 3, 2022

In coming years those reenacting Civil War battles will be Union Troops fighting no one.
Chertoff? Lolz this guy has never been a conservative.
Wearing a Confederate soldier's uniform at a historical event is a non-issue but especially in Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania may be geographically located north of the Mason-Dixon Line but since the Civil War, it's a Southern state.

Yeah, it was stupid for, especially, someone with political ambitions.
But it was nearly a decade ago in a circumstance where army war college faculty members were invited to dress as historical figures: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/doug-mastriano-confederate-uniform-gop-pennsylvania-governor-nominee/.
God help us if we can now only study the war strategies of woke militaries.
The GOP pols “speaking out” were and are nothing other than controlled oppo anyway.
So, like 16 republicans clutched their pearls and abandoned ship because of this? What pusillanimous twits.
He must be a racist if he wore a uniform in a reenactment.
