Nehlen, primary challenger of RYAN: An antisemite maybe ? Hm ?

Republican @pnehlen who’s challenging Paul Ryan for his Congressional seat just posted a list of Twitter users who have spoken out against him. He then listed next to each one whether they are Jewish or not.

Paul Nehlen PLEASE add me to the list

Bigots don't belong in Congress

Link to tweet

Overton window anyone ? Going further and further to the NAZI right? Oh that's right, it's WAY too soon to say anything!

How does he know that they are Jewish?

What a piece of excrement. Thing is, in that area, he might get past Ryan in primaries, but I suspect he'll be easier to defeat in a general.
