It’s not fair to mock Candace Owens for not knowing Lee Harvey Oswald was a marine.
In her defense, she is a moron. pic.twitter.com/fFVMG8xli0

Candace Owens who has gone from not particularly talented actress to right-wing joke, just doubled down on the joke part.
You see, an internet prankster sent a (real) picture of a (real) US Marine to various right-wing figures, asking them to wish a happy memorial day on behalf of his (fake) grandfather.
It was a picture of Lee Harvey Oswald, a man who every US Marine would condemn, even if he had not shot JFK, because he also defected to the USSR.
Candace Owens was in high dudgeon about this, claiming that it was disrespectful to Photoshop his picture into a photo of a US Serviceman.
Of course, anyone who knows who Oswald was should know that he was (a pretty horrible, twice court martialed) US Marine.
You can object to the prank, I find it hilarious, but claiming that it is a Photoshop is beyond stupid.
I guess that this is what comes from a decade or so of channeling Lincoln Theodore Monroe Andrew Perry (Aka Stepin Fetchit).
It rots the mind.
