So among the places Mastirano represents is the

Burrough of Chambersburg. And he is seen sporting a Confederate Uniform. Someone might remind him of this:

https://www.pacivilwartrails.com/stories/tales/the-burning-of-chambersburg

snip:
On July 30, 1864, Brigadier General John McCausland and 2,800 Confederate cavalrymen entered Chambersburg and demanded $100,000 in gold or $500,000 in greenbacks. The residents of Chambersburg failed to raise the ransom, and McCausland ordered his men to burn the town. Flames destroyed more than 500 structures leaving more than 2,000 homeless. One resident died of smoke inhalation. Damage was estimated at more than $1.6 million. To make matters worse, many inebriated Confederate soldiers looted homes and abused civilians. Mobs of angry townspeople looking for retribution killed several Rebels.

Another MAGA traitor.

is pushed aside, denied, and ignored. There are no ways to make the historical institution of slavery attractive.
