A Republican political organization in Illinois semi-apologized on Sunday for posting and then deleting a movie-style poster on Facebook depicting four Democratic congresswomen who have been criticized by President Donald Trump as “The Jihad Squad.”

The poster, which was uploaded to the account of the Republican County Chairmen’s Association of Illinois, mimics promotional movie posters, this one called “The Jihad Squad.”

Sean Morrison, chairman of the Cook County Republican Party, said in a statement that he was “appalled” by the group’s “use of hateful rhetoric.”

“There are civil ways to express political differences that do not involve going to racist extremes,” Morrison said. “The Illinois Republican County Chairman’s Association’s post only serves to further the hateful divide within our country, when we should instead strive for an intelligent, civil and thoughtful discussion of the philosophical differences between Republicans and Democrats.”

Mmmm, Actually? The post seems to highlight current, “philosophical differences between Republicans and Democrats” very, very well.
