I had never heard of the “alt-right” until the other day, when I heard news people saying Hillary would give a speech about them.

So what’s really going on here? Liberals are creating an enemy, this “alt right”? They create this scary enemy group, which is supposed to scare us to death, then tell us that Donald Trump is part of this scary enemy group?? What the heck???


It’s been around a while. We have been getting attacked by the GOP from that angle.

Here is Paul Ryan agreeing with the “alt right” smear in a local radio interview during his primary:

Ryan said Nehlen’s campaign is an “out of state campaign” that was “mouthing these kinds of screeds,” comparing it to the same type of campaign used to unsuccessfully recall Gov. Scott Walker.

“They are not pushing conservatism, they call this ‘alt-conservatism’ — I don’t even know what this … have you heard of this alt-conservatism?” he asked Weber.

“I have, and it’s just goofy and it’s tied into, often times, like white supremacists groups and fringe groups, it’s really a nasty virulent strain of something, it’s not conservatism,” Weber replied.

“That’s right,” Ryan continued. “It’s a nasty virulent strain of something, I don’t even know what it is other than it isn’t us, it isn’t what we believe in. And it’s not what the Constitution says and it’s not what conservatives, particularly Wisconsin conservatives, believe in.”

Now politicians will use the “Alt-Right” moniker to attack anyone who disagrees with them.

Ryan:

“It’s [Trump and his supporters] a nasty virulent strain of something, I don’t even know what it is other than it isn’t us, it isn’t what we believe in. And it’s not what the Constitution says and it’s not what conservatives...believe in.”

Who is "we," you fake, phony, fraud? Ryan has no ideological or moral standing in defining "conservative" OR who "we" are. It's like Judas chastising the other Apostles.

Paul Ryan can attempting to demonize the future President and the 60+ million who will be voting for him, but he's still on the outside looking in.

I have never heard of “alt-conservatism.” Members of the alt-right don’t consider themselves conservative, since hacks like Ryan have destroyed that label. What has Paul Ryan ever conserved anyway?
