I don't see how you can possibly separate the franchise from citizenship in the US context. In the EU you can sort of squint and get away with it because you have parity treatment of EU citizens in all other spheres, so why not throw in local elections? But in the US? Yeah, no.
You don't even need to condemn it, you just need to think for two seconds about how monumentally stupid it is. Hell, even the actual Nazis don't run candidates with Nazi tattoos!
Even if you could convince the democratic party to lay off the nazi thing, do they somehow expect the Republicans to ignore it? It's perfect messaging: dems are the real nazis, vote to maintain order. He'd lose by 40 points and deserve it!
If you have a nazi tattoo, you are going to lose in the primary. This is just the first stage of grief from people who thought they found a working class hero and can't cope with the fiery, self-inflicted implosion of his campaign.
Iceland made its whole society vastly wealthier by allowing fishermen to sell off their quotas to larger operations, thus making their industry much more efficient and giving the smallholders a fair share of the proceeds to reinvest in other, less dreary livelihoods.
I feel like "has a nazi tattoo" is a pretty slam dunk attack ad and I think that more or less does it, no clue why we need to have a bunch of discourse about a guy whose campaign is 100% doomed.
As an immigrant, it was interesting to think of myself as a second-class citizen, and then realize, wait, I'm not even a citizen at all. It's a weird sort of sociopolitical limbo status.
The tricky part about immigration in a democratic society is that immigrants are not a relevant political constituency (because they can't vote) and once they can vote they immediately lose the shared political interest in better immigration policy (because they have citizenship).
