    A Nazi ran unopposed for the Illinois GOP congressional primary. A Republican. A right winger. A Nazi.

    And since he was unopposed in that primary, he won. Illinois Republicans aren't happy but this isn't about approval or disapproval. The point is that he ran as a Republican for a GOP seat.

    Is it possible to seriously imagine a leftist running in a Republican primary for a GOP seat in Congress? Hell no.

    Fascism is a right wing phenomenon and Nazis know it.

    That an entire district just nominated an ACTUAL NAZI as their Congressional nominee for the House of Reps.

    THAT is where far too many of today's Republicans are

    Bernie Sanders for one he's a Social Democrat which really is not very different from a communist if you actually study the issue. But before you say he doesn't count as a communist this guy from Illinois is not actually a Nazi he denies being a Nazi.

    We are not a republic, as evidenced by Princeton, using congressional record, to show average americans get zero representation. We are something along the lines of oligarchy, a corporate state, something along those lines, given to us by both parties, and it is fascism in principle.

    But as long as one can misdirect, away from the actual fascism that is involved, given to us by your party and the GOP, the fascism goes unchallenged. And unlike that nazi you spoke of, this fascism has the power to affect the lives of average americans in a most harmful and destructive manner. You are straining out the motes and allowing the logs to pass on through your ideological driven sieve.

    So, given the DP sided with the GOP in destroying our republic, that has to mean the DP are fascists, and not genuine liberals, which is why I have called them fake liberals since day one on this forum. The modern left will not even believe their own genuine liberals, like greenwald and chris hedges. Another clue that genuine kind of liberalism is dead within the DP and even with their establishment, hillary type of voter.

    Denying the Jewish Holocaust doesn’t make someone a Nazi. He would be a Nazi if he identified with National Socialism, and he explicitly says that he does not.

    Bernie Sanders identified as a national socialist, he did campaign in 50 states, don't see liberals whining about that...

    The party, which was not able to find anyone to run against Jones in the primary, says it will try to get an independent to run in the race.

    "Arthur Jones is not a real Republican — he is a Nazi whose disgusting, bigoted views have no place in our nation's discourse," Illinois GOP Chairman Tim Schneider said in a statement.


    Oh...

    So if other people are qualified to define the political ideology of others then based on your criteria myself and others are well qualified to define Bernie Sanders, a former candidate for the democratic nomination for president, as a communist.

    So if communists are within the ranks of the democrat party I'm not really sure why you think members of the democrat party are morally qualifed to judge who republicans do or do not choose to represent them.

    That a Nazi running for office today in the U.S. in 2018 as a Republican means that historical Nazis 60 years ago in Germany were, what, Republicans (lulz)?

    Yep, it is -that- stupid.

    Really goes to show how both groups ultimately push the same agenda.

    Kode, if a leftist ran unopposed in a GOP primary, I'll bet ya your favorite drink he/she would have won. Hell, Maxine Waters would have won.

    If a Nazi ran unopposed on the Democratic ticket .... same thing.

    Hell, I'll bet if Kim Jong Un was the only name on the ballot ...

    The GOP in Illinois will try to get an independent to run so the democrat will get the seat and the Republican candidate will lose. Did I read that right?

    It’s not surprising that an establishment Republican would rather a Democrat win office than someone who is willing to defy a few of the left’s sacred cows.

    Follow the money.

    National Socialists don't sound right wing to me. And then there was Soros. He claimed the best years of his life were spent "inventorying" property that belonged to Holocaust victims. One-ofs don't a movement make. Have to look at behavior patterns like when the last administration spied on American citizens, launched an investigation of a news reporter, stifled free speech by slow walking applications for status necessary to fund communication, harassed people who disagreed with him by launching IRS audits. We have a lot of evidence of fascist behavior ,,, much more than one guy running in a primary.
