Sounds like he made a political move. It's not new to NASCAR though. Republican political candidates regularly pop up on a few cars during elections. A Blue Lives Matter truck showed up last year. The NRA has sponsored races and cars. They are always promoting the military. Etc. The rule of removing politics from sports because muh escapism apparently does not apply to NASCAR.
