In case you didn’t know it, Arthur Jones, an “avowed Nazi” is running as a Republican in Illinois’ 3rd congressional district after party leaders “botched four opportunities to stop” his candidacy. Needless to say, this may prove embarrassing for Republicans in Illinois and perhaps nationally.
But now that Jones is officially on the ballot, we expect (and hope) to see more of this.
This is horrific. An avowed Nazi running for Congress. To the good people of Illinois, you have two reasonable choices: write in another candidate, or vote for the Democrat. This bigoted fool should receive ZERO votes. https://t.co/9WYlvCMKaF

And now for something really funny, Obama bro Jon Favreau thinks this actually means Cruz is scared of his opponent in his Senate race, Beto O’Rourke:

At least Cruz is getting some praise for it:
