VA U.S. Senate GOP Primary is Between a Constitutionalist and a Guy Who Calls Anti-Semite His Hero
Townhall.com ^ | June 6, 2018 | Marina Medvin

The Virginia U.S. Senate Republican Primary is set to be a match between Nick Freitas, a Constitutionalist and revered Virginia lawmaker in the House of Delegates, and Corey Stewart, a guy who lost the Republican Primary nomination for Governor of Virginia and decided to run for another office. 

In the same day that I received an NRA member mailing endorsing U.S. Senate candidate Nick Freitas as an A+ representative of the Second Amendment, I read a story from the Daily Wire about Freitas’ opponent Corey Stewart praising known anti-Semite Paul Nehlen as his “personal hero.” 

“I can't tell you how much I was inspired by you,” Corey Stewart says to the anti-semite in the video posted on YouTube.

Corey Stewart’s “personal hero” Paul Nehlen was declared "dead to us" by Steve Bannon after Nehlen's anti-Semitic and racist posts on social media came to light. 

But Stewart’s choice of hero is not surprising. Stewart attended and spoke at the infamous Charlottesville Neo-Nazi march, and is known for proudly posing with a Confederate flag to entice his voters. Stewart is appealing to a particular demographic, touting “Confederate heritage” as his platform.  

Stewart is also engaging in questionable campaign tactics. In 2016, Corey Stewart was fired from Trump’s campaign as Virginia co-chairman, a detail Corey omitted when he boasted to his followers this week about his involvement with the Trump campaign on Facebook. Stewart posted a photo of Trump shaking his hand as if to indicate endorsement. Donald Trump has not endorsed Corey Stewart for Senate. And in fact, Trump endorsed Stewart’s opponent during the Virginia Governor race that Stewart lost. Corey Stewart has not been endorsed by the NRA either. 

Luckily for Virginia, we have a squeaky-clean conservative candidate as Corey Stewart’s opponent, Nick Freitas.

Aside from his continuous efforts to fight for classic American rights, Freitas is a devout Christian and a stable family man. He is devoted to his wife, who he admires with his whole heart. He is proud of his children and doesn’t touch his iPhone when he is spending time with his kids. Freitas praises the strength of American families.

Nick Freitas attends debates and constructively argues in favor of the Constitution and our Bill of Rights. Freitas lives in the now, attending to modern day issues, such as school security, the Second Amendment, and taxation.

To compare them simply: Nick Freitas is fighting Liberalism. Corey Stewart is fighting Yankees.

My choice is clear. I’m endorsing the American candidate, Nick Freitas. I shrug off Confederates who attempt to pass themselves off as Republicans. Those candidates retrogress politics when they carry the flag and ideology belonging to the enemy of the United States of America.

Join me and vote for Nick Freitas on June 12 in the Republican Primary for U.S. Senate.

There is an element in the VA GOP that is trying to paint the right as alt-right Nazis which could not be further from the truth and the right goes too far calling the other side establishment. This is getting lots of GOP voters in VA PO’d.

Which means she is a liberal democrat trial lawyer, one of the main groups (along with Jews) who fund the democrat party.

Because Townhall is owned by Salem Radio/Salem Media which has been full of Trump bashers. Michael Medved, Eric Ericson, Joe Walsh, and Hugh Hewitt and Mark Levin in their previous phase.

This from her Townhall bio:

“Born in the USSR, she immigrated to the US with her family and became a US Citizen. “

Lucky us. Another import eager to piss on the old America.

She oughta team up with Boot, Haley, and the newly sainted Dinesh and finish talibanning Southern history.
