I disagree w/ his politics.
However, as funny as this might be at first glance, attacking people running for public office in democratic elections should be punished to the maximum extent of the law.
It endangers democracy itself.

In Germany, for instance, attacks on some politicians have led several, in particular on a city or town level, to step down or not run for office again.

Apart from this, what an insane snaphot from a photographer's angle!
