TAMPA, Fla. — As young conservatives met inside the Tampa Convention Center, a small group of Nazi supporters showed up outside, holding up racist imagery and shouting racial epithets at passersby.
The group held up a red Nazi swastika flag, one with the SS logo on it, a Florida state flag, and other signs, including anti-semitic images on posters.
The Florida Holocaust Museum condemned the racist display in a statement posted to social media that read:
