THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP. Respect it or leave quietly, please.

He's trying to get Ryan's seat in WI, and he's a "constitutional conservative". That must be the new code passed out by the neo-Nazis.

Here's proof of his neo-nazism:

So on DU, a big yawn seems to be the overall response. Some do care, in fairness.

This asshole should not be on Twitter, much less running for office!

Overton Window definition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overton_window

An illustration of the Overton Window, along with Treviño's degrees of acceptance.
The Overton window, also known as the window of discourse, is the range of ideas tolerated in public discourse. The term is derived from its originator, Joseph P. Overton, a former vice president of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy, who in his description of his window claimed that an idea's political viability depends mainly on whether it falls within the window, rather than on politicians' individual preferences.[1][2] According to Overton's description, his window includes a range of policies considered politically acceptable in the current climate of public opinion, which a politician can recommend without being considered too extreme to gain or keep public office.

1. It's shocking that people feel empowered to express these views in public

let alone use them as their political platform. Worse, some people would vote for this guy. The Overton Window definitely has shifted.

2. I'm speechless.

I'm just waking up to Jewish concerns, for lack of a better word. I think it was on Reddit where I learned about how tone-deaf and insulting the tweet from Mike Pence was on the International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The heavy Christianization language really knocked me back on my heels! (And I say this as a Christian; it was a slap in the face to Jewish people but he's a freakin Dominionist. Somebody said that the Dominionists need the Jewish people like a rancher needs the cows, which I thought was a good way to put it.)

4. He's finally been suspended. What did it take? His posting a racist photo targeting the Royal Family

His account was suspended after posting a racist image of Prince Harry's fiance, Meghan. The image of 'Cheddar Man' was superimposed on Meghan's face.
