maybe a driver's seat would have been more appropriate than the lincoln mem.

they didn't have the oozing orange pustule in a racing suit sitting in Lincoln's seat. He wants his stupid face on everything else.

... Apart from being a graphics professional for just a little over 60 years, I also write professionally on occasion. I loves me some nice, juicy words and phrases! Enjoy using them as you wish.

I mean, yeah, one could generously suggest the CEO's brainless video game junkie nephew thought it would be a cool in a "One Nation, One Car Race" context, but anyone who spent time working in Public Affairs or marketing would know it's really cringe.
On the other hand, the organization might not care it could alienate a minority of fans, if it knew the majority of fans would either not care or be pumped up by it.

Is an odious, racist, xenophobic political party started in Australia by Pauline Hanson. This is more jingoistic drum thumping.
