This seems about right: a former leader of the American Nazi Party is close to getting the Rethuglican / New Confederate / Trumpist Party nomination for a Congressional seat in Illinois:
"According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Arthur Jones, a Holocaust denier who has repeatedly tried ― and failed ― to attain office, is the only candidate seeking the GOP nod for the seat in the heavily Democratic 3rd Congressional District. Images on Jones’ campaign website showed him speaking at KKK and neo-Nazi events, giving the Nazi salute and shredding the flag of Israel. He called the Confederate flag the symbol of 'white pride,' 'white resistance' and 'white counterrevolution.' Jones also told the Sun-Times that the Holocaust was 'an international extortion racket.'”The article goes on to note that "Party leaders have disowned Jones." They may not have chosen him (yet), but he chose them for a reason, and that's all you need to know about the state of the Rethuglican / Trumpist menace to this country.
BONUS: Here he is in his regalia --
