Paul Nehlen, a Republican businessman from Wisconsin’s first congressional district, has just launched his 2018 congressional campaign against the anti-Donald Trump House Speaker Paul Ryan.

This is the second time Nehlen is challenging Ryan, after coming up short in the 2016 GOP primary in Wisconsin’s first congressional district.

"Speaker Ryan didn’t help Mr. Trump defeat Hillary Clinton, and even pledged not to defend the president,” Nehlen said in his announcement. “But I have a message for Speaker Ryan: The American people are not done fighting for President Trump’s good agenda. That’s why I am announcing my second challenge to Paul Ryan for the nomination in Wisconsin’s first congressional district.”

Wikipedia removed his article after he polled just 15 percent or so in 2016. He is now considered “not notable.”

Is this a vanity post or a vanity run? He stunk on primary day but looked good in preseason.

Good -— Anyone but Ryan.

You Got That Right!

[sargon]

Great idea! Good for Nehlen.

Stick that in your 2018 pipe and smoke it, Mr. Speaker.

I hope that this same thing happens in lots of Congressional districts: let's see some Republican candidates who are willing to support this President—a Republican—enthusiastically.

Let's get a majority in the GOP House that will actually support their own President... and to Hell with the Swamp-dwellers who won't.

>> He is now considered “not notable.”

The article did say that he came up short.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

I plan to contribute and encourage others to do the same.

Let’s hope he can come up with more than 13% of the vote this time.

[snarkytart]

yes this must be our goal!

[Vendome]

I may very well contribute.

Paul Lyin is not giving us what we want...

[boycott]

I would love for him to win but I sort of doubt it. Ryan is backed by the establishment elites.

I don’t believe Paul Ryan has ever had a real job in all his life. I wish he could find out what a real job is like.

[Socon-Econ]

Hope he keeps the pressure on — he will get better with each try. Important because conservatives can be quitters.

[Lurkinanloomin]

We did not remove Cantor on the first try, but we got him on then second.

Try, try again.

I’ll give Kelly Ward a 2nd chance. More at stake in the Senate. Perhaps Ward is more familiar now with Flake being a failed conservative.
