The Livingston County Democratic Party in Michigan posted, and quickly deleted, an image featuring the numbers “8647,” a code widely understood as a call to assassinate President Donald Trump.
The post triggered immediate backlash before the party quietly deleted it.
The AI image showed the four-digit code prominently displayed on the shirts of former presidents Barack Obama, Joe Biden, George Bush, and Bill Clinton.
“86” is longstanding slang for eliminating something, while “47” refers to President Donald Trump, the 47th president.
The post was screenshotted and shared by Libs of TikTok before it could be deleted.
Party Chair Judy Daubenmier attempted to downplay the controversy by claiming the image was simply about impeachment.
