VoteVets: GOP candidate Royce White claims the "bad guys" won WWII
VoteVets
🚨GOP candidate Royce White claims the "bad guys" won WWII, dismissing the fight against Nazi fascism as a battle of “controlling interests.” This isn’t just bizarre—it’s reprehensible. His unhinged rants and attacks on his own party show exactly why the GOP’s candidate problem is a threat to us all.

Heartland Signal - Minnesota GOP Senate candidate: ‘The bad guys won in WWII’
By Zach Shaw – 10/04/24
As the control of the Senate hangs in the balance, GOP candidates across the country are facing a similar problem: Troubling and bizarre past statements, both in-person and on social media, are coming back to haunt them. But in Minnesota, Royce White is an even more extreme case.
In a tweet from 2022 that has since resurfaced, White claims that “‘bad guys” won the second world war, saying, “The bad guys won in WWII. There were no ‘good guys’ in that war. The controlling interests had a jump ball. If you look closely, you see the link between liberalism and communism in the Allied forces.”
As is known to most, the Allied forces were fighting to defeat the Nazis and eliminate genocidal fascism that had taken hold of much of Europe and Asia, not advancing “controlling interests.” White also erroneously claimed that General George Patton was murdered; in reality, the general died in 1945 from complications from a car crash.
White also has a habit of alienating voters, including members of his own party. In one recent exchange, he called Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell “RINO Scum.” In another, he called National Republican Senatorial Committee Chair Steve Daines a “RINO & Neocon” and indicated he would “track [Republicans] down and weed [them] out if they aren’t extreme enough.”
