They didn’t say they’re Nazis, but the campaign has retweeted the black sun in a video last cycle, there was the recent retweet about a unified reich, they did have ‘we are all domestic terrorists’ as a banner at the RNC, and used the shape of a Nazi pin at another event iirc.
Can’t find the pic of the stage right now
Holy shit.
Like, I can see a brief of "thrust stage with 3 screens, entrances between the screens, and access to the screens for manual pointing" might lead to this stage design. The cutouts at the side might be able to be justified for camera access.
But that cutout triangle in the middle would be a pain to engineer and a health & safety nightmare to justify. So the cutout triangle is absolutely deliberate, and will have been discussed in depth. The only reason to keep it is because someone knew.
Edit.
Also, considering their logo is star shaped, I'm surprised the center thrust isn't more star shaped. Seems odd to go from 5 points and many sides to 4 points and 4 sides. Especially considering they are fine with the engineering and h&s justification of a triangle cutout mid-stage
