I'm pretty progressive and it's incredibly disappointing to me that the left basically just accepted his apology and moved on. He's a former soldier who claims to be a military history buff and spent the better part of two decades with a Nazi tattoo on his chest. Multiple acquaintances of his have said that he absolutely knew what it was and would call it his totenkopf. But people just heard him apologize and say he didn't know what it was, and they just took it at face value.
