Paul Nehlen, the primary challenger of Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, strongly suggested during an interview with Morning Answer Chicago Thursday that the United States should simply kick all Muslims out of the country.

Nehlen said the problem with vetting good Muslims from the bad is that they couldn’t be trusted. “Islam is the only major religion that encourages lying,” he argued. “The taqiyya says you have to lie to the infidel, you lie to them if you have to… I mean if they lie, how do you vet something like that?”

“So then how do you implement the test that you want to implement?” asked host Dan Proft.

“The question is, why do we have Muslims in the country?” Nehlen responded. “How can you possibly vet somebody who lies?”

“So are you suggesting that we deport all of the Muslims in the country?” Proft asked.

“I’m suggesting we have a discussion about it, that’s for sure,” he responded.

An indignant Proft asked Nehlen if he really supported deporting American citizens who hadn’t actually done anything wrong. “Well if somebody supports sharia, that is doing something wrong,” Nehlan said.

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is indeed a revolutionary act.

“Dems call on Top Republicans and Trump to denounce Nehlen.”

[NEMDF]

Once he can get some people to agree that lying is actually “bad”, then we could also advocate to not have LIARS holding office as POTUS.

“Well if somebody supports sharia, that is doing something wrong,”

I like this guy!

[Hodar]

Bttt

[NorthMountain]

Well if somebody supports sharia, that is doing something wrong,” Nehlan said.

On the one hand, First Amendment.

On the other hand, advocating violent overthrow of the US Government.

[semimojo]

“Well if somebody supports sharia, that is doing something wrong,”

Wrong? Maybe. Illegal? No.

[Jacquerie]

Most excellent!

Boot them all the h#ll out of my country!

[virgil]

Why are rats telling republicans to denounce each other? They should STFU.

[amnestynone]

You cannot deport people whoare already citezens nor should you. But, I hope Nehlin wins and if he does not I hope he either runs as a third party or supporter the Democrat. We have simply got to rid the world of Ryan and McCain too at all costs.

[Paladin2]

Butt, butt, butt... The Khan Man says there is NO Jihad in Islam, none, not even a scentilla.

[CARTOUCHE]

It’s an open primarty in Wisconsin. The Dems can cross over to vote for Nehlen or Ryan. I’m hoping there’ll be enough of them to do a favor for us.

[noiseman]

"On the other hand, advocating violent overthrow of the US Government."

Exactly. The First Amendment doesn't protect sedition, which is what a Muslim who advocates imposition of Sharia law would be engaged in.

[Paladin2]

Sharia is seditious to the US Constitution. The 3rd Amendment indicates that we should not be quartering Sharia lovers in the USA.

[chris37]

Then revoke their citizenship and banish them.

We are not compatible with muslims.

[Williams]

Seems like a very unsophisticated statement by Nehlen, but I’d like to see the full comment. I’d still kick Ryan out.

[Gritty]

Nehlen is absolutely correct. He gets it. Most of the moneychangers on both sides in the District of Corruption don't and they don't care either as long as their juice keeps flowing. We need to stop their juice and kick them all the hell out.

I hope he wins and wins big. These Vichy Americans need to be running scared from the torches and pitchforks - and they ought to be grateful they aren't decorating lampposts all over that wicked town.

[Dagnabitt]

A point he missed was that the Jihadists doing the killing are more often than not second-generation, locally-born Muslims.

In France, Germany, and the USA the Jihadists pulling the triggers, pushing the detonators, or plunging the knives have tended to be the sons of the original immigrants. So “lying” isn’t the big issue. . The main issue is the impossibility of “screening” or “vetting” subsequent generations. How does one screen a generation not yet born?

The only sensible approach is to not grow a large domestic Muslim population in the first place. Why trade our demographics for those of France or Belgium? We already have a huge problem with the small Muslim population we now have, which has managed to slaughter Americans in Orlando, San Bernardino, Ft Hood, Chattanooga, etc. Why “upgrade” to the rivers of blood now washing the streets of Europe?
