He's running for office and exposed to people outside his normal circle... someone told him. Now he's having it removed.

Some former staffer says he knew weeks ago... like it's a big scandal now because he didn't run out to the whatever kind of place removes tattoos the very next day.

What am I missing here? That seems like a fair timeline for a busy guy running a campaign and a business... Yes, he's probably toast as a Democrat candidate for ANYTHING, because politics is not fair, but I don't see how the guy is supposed to be some kind of monster...
