Arthur Jones *(formerly a Trump supporter) slithered out of his hole in the ground in Lyons to run for the United States Congress in a Republican primary election, and nobody stepped up to challenge him.Jones — a Holocaust denier, anti-Semite, neo-Nazi and white supremacist — is running unopposed as a GOP candidate in a west suburban-based U.S. House race. That means any primary voter in the 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] Congressional District who pulls a Republican ballot for the Illinois primary will see only Jones’ name listed. He’ll win the primary by default.

GOP winning hearts and minds. I can't help but wonder why, even if he will lose (which is a certainty) why the Illinois GOP isn't more vocal in opposing this guy.

Rob Porter has resigned from his role as White House staff secretary after his first ex-wife told DailyMail.com that he choked and punched her during their marriage.
Colbie Holderness, 37, who is a senior analyst for the U.S. government, spoke on the record to DailyMail.com about her five-year marriage to Porter, detailing physical and mental abuse.

Another poorly vetted choice leaves the White House. An two-time wife beater (allegedly), who couldn't even obtain a security clearance, on his own, but handled the highly sensitive information that was passed on to the president. John Kelly is "shocked" having known about it for months."

Because no one even knows who he is. Much like when someone runs as a R against Visclosky in NWI.

If they are vocal in opposing him, it only brings more attention to him.

Democrats flipped a Missouri House seat in Tuesday’s special election in a district that President Trump won by 28 points in 2016, signaling problems for the GOP ahead of the 2018 midterm elections.

Uh-oh, another state legislature seat is flipped.

You think the mainstream media is going to let this one go without making hay? The GOP sticking their head in the sand doesn't mean this guy isn't going to get plenty of press to craft a narrative. The smart money would have gotten out ahead of this, rather than let the media pick it up and ask why this guy is on the ballot representing the GOP.

I guess the mob-prescribed sufficient level of disavowal should be published so that everyone's on the same page.

The GOP can't afford to ignore it though. These days society has gotten used to expecting officials to be sufficiently disavowing.

Goose-stepping parades and Nazi candidates.

And Jamil doesn't think the optics are bad.

Didn't the Democrats nearly (but for dirty dealing) run a Socialist candidate? For President!?

How quickly we forget (or, on to the next distraction)
