GOP Has At Least Four Actual Nazi Sympathizers On Their Ballot

Both Sides? Democrats don't have Nazis on the ballot.

The next time someone tries to tell you that "both sides are equally bad," please inform them that the Republican Party has at least four candidates one can reasonably assume are Nazi Party sympathizers.

And the Democratic Party does not.

Media Matters notes these guys:

...neo-Nazi and Illinois Republican U.S. congressional candidate Arthur Jones; white supremacist and Republican North Carolina General Assembly candidate Russell Walker; neo-Nazi and unsuccessful California Republican U.S. Senate candidate Patrick Little; and anti-Semite and Wisconsin Republican U.S. congressional candidate Paul Nehlen.

In addition, "John Fitzgerald, an anti-Semite who is running as a Republican for California’s 11th Congressional District seat, has been appearing on neo-Nazi podcasts and falsely claiming that the Holocaust is a “lie.”"

What happens in these cases is the national, state, local whatever party apparatus "denounces" the candidacy and what it stands for, while Republican voters hear the dog-whistles and Holocaust denial and vote R no matter what...literally.

Both Sides Don't.
