That’s “unfortunate” timing indeed.
A conservative group in Georgia apologized this week after a mock-up of Republicans wielding rifles—advertising a get out to vote event—was reportedly emailed out the same day a teen fatally shot four at a nearby high school.
The poster, which was an edited version of The Expendables 3’s film poster, read “The Dependables” and plastered the faces of Donald Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and other Georgia Republicans over movie characters.
The photoshopped Trump, which stood in the poster’s center with his buff arms crossed, wasn’t armed. However, at least five others are holding rifles similar to what Colt Gray used to massacre two of his classmates and a pair of teachers on Wednesday morning.
Restoring American Liberty Forum is the group behind the poster and event, which appears to still be on for the night of Sept. 30 at a restaurant in Cumming—about 35 miles from Winder, where the shooting occurred.
