WASHINGTON, DC: Sen Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) does not want to believe that former President Donald Trump's campaign released a video endorsing a "unified Reich" during his second term in power, despite several screenshots evidencing the same.

On Monday, May 20, President Joe Biden's campaign criticized Donald Trump for sharing a video with a series of headlines regarding his new order.



 

A fictional headline proclaimed, "BORDER IS CLOSED — 15 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS DEPORTED," while another exclaimed "MAGA!!"

When zoomed in on the article, the following text is visible: "Industrial strength significantly increased... driven by the creation of a unified Reich."

What did Sen Tuberville say about the purported Trump campaign video championing a ‘unified Reich’?

Senator Tommy Tuberville, who was present at Donald Trump's hush money criminal trial last week, suggested that the entire thing was fake news, per RawStory.

"Oh, come on, that came from some PAC or something," the Alabama lawmaker said about the video.

According to Reuters, the controversial video appeared on Monday on Donald Trump's exclusive social media platform, Truth Social, as indicated by screenshots. It was subsequently taken down the following day "after backlash."

The statement released by the former President’s campaign claimed that the video was "not created by the campaign" and that it was "reposted by a staffer that did not see the word."

"I just heard someone used it as a statement," Tuberville remarked, adding. "Do you think that came out of the Republican Party? No. No."

When informed that the purported video was a major story at the beginning of the week, Tuberville replied, "Oh, I mean, come on, they’re just lookin' for something to talk about."

When pressed on the controversial clip, other Republicans like Senators Ted Cruz (Texas) and John Cornyn (Texas) chose not to respond.

Sen Mitt Romney seemed so taken aback by the concept of the video that he claimed he had to make sure it was authentic before he could make a statement.

"But if it's true," Romney added, "it's just another reason not to vote for Trump."

Internet shreds Sen Tuberville for being oblivious to the implications of Trump's incendiary campaign video

Online users have criticized the Alabama GOP Senator for failing to acknowledge the clear implications of Trump's alleged Nazi-endorsing campaign video.

One person commented, "Biggest mystery ever....how the hell this dimwit ended up in the senate with absolutely no political experience whatsoever." [sic]

Another person remarked, "If you ask a Nazi if another Nazi is a Nazi, all you're going to get is a Not See."

A person said, "Tuberville is a mumbling, stumbling, hapless, helpless and hopeless ingrate, the sort of southern Simon Legree wannabe who must be repudiated over and over before he finally realizes that he couldn't begin to rise above the ankles of former Alabama senator Doug Jones."

One person suggested, "Right after Tommy denies the truth journalist should ask him to name the three branches of government." [sic]

Another person wrote, "TOmmy Tubesteak is a Nazi himself." [sic]

Finally, this person claimed, "Interesting word to just happen to overlook."
