A California vice mayor is facing fierce backlash and mounting calls to resign after he posted the message “86 47” on the California Republican Party’s Facebook page and used James Comey’s image of seashells spelling out the same phrase, which he was recently indicted for, as his account cover photo.

Larry Lang, Vice Mayor of Los Altos and a member of more than half a dozen regional boards, left the comment “86 47” in response to a recent California GOP post featuring Chairwoman Corrin Rankin discussing a gubernatorial debate.

Rankin had stated that Democrats “have no solutions” after 16 years of one-party rule in California.

In restaurant and bar slang, “86” means to “get rid of,” “eliminate,” or sometimes, “kill.” The number “47” refers to President Donald Trump as the 47th president.
