I’d love to know the full story.
Probably something like

Hey this image looks cool, send it off, everyone agrees but the literally looked at it for a second each.
Someone at the print shop or putting the damn thing up must have noticed, what did they do is where the story gets interesting.

Actually they are unusually developed self haters who were beaten down so badly as children they believe they wouldn’t stand a chance in honest striving. It’s those who have been most robbed of real self respect who hurt so badly they could care less whom their thievery will hurt. For the same reason it is the terror of feeling loss that drives angry people to try to steal elections. Sadly nothing can help them feel better because ‘the others they blame for their loss do not have the stolen goods. That all happened in childhood we are afraid to remember.

Didn’t they just have another white supremacist “accident “ within this week?

How many of you out there still think these are accidents? Fess up I know you are there!

I don't think there's any doubt this was an accident. Copyright-Karma, as the image creator called it. They unthinkingly appropriated someone else's image and it ended up biting them.

(I don't beleive they were deliberately choosing to acknowledge a GOP-KKK cross-over)

You mean Republicans had yet another accidental interaction with white nationalists?

How many “accidents” until it becomes intentional?
 
“A google search picture of a GOP elephant was used and later found to have hidden images that do not represent the views or beliefs of the Lawrence County Republican Party.”

I called them up and got more details.

"The views of the Lawrence County Republican Party do not align with the KKK. We feel that costumes, robes are inappropriate and prefer a more business casual style of dress. Also, unlike the KKK we love the jews as they serve a critical element in our biblical doomsday prophesy when they get wiped out by the Chinese and bring Jesus back. "
 
Shit like this reminds me of all the BS spewed by members rehashing 100 year old Russian Anti-semitic propaganda and 1920's anti-black propaganda.
"Pardon me sir, I didn't realize the history or overtones of what I just posted. It just sounded so right to me"
 
here's a couple of links, one for the original story that had the image and another that talks about the GOP using the image on multiple occasions

The Republican Party is racist and soulless. Just ask this veteran GOP strategist.

Stuart Stevens says he now realizes the hatred and bigotry of Trumpism were always at the heart of the GOP.

The writers of reality need to chill: Republicans keep posting KKK hoods

The artist behind the illustration—which was featured in our story outlining the GOP's racist descent—has some thoughts.

So the racists, Nazis, white supremacists, etc. are all welcome with open arms in the GOP to the point where they've become examples to follow, hired and anointed by the Corporate bosses of the party as mercenaries and well what the hell, they ARE fellow Republicans after all. Throw in the religious nutjobs, Q'pies and holdover Tea terrorists and well, one would get the notion that there's a wee bit of a whiff of burnt crosses and tiki torch kerosene vapors at their rallies.
