Alt-Right candidate for Congress Paul Nehlen, who is running against House Speaker Paul Ryan in the 1st congressional district Republican primary, couldn’t take being insulted by Commentary Editor John Podhoretz.
Maybe you should eat something. Your brain needs nourishment. It’s the size of a pea. https://t.co/q2S6uhr1rM

Do us all a favor, Podhoretz.
Eat a bullet. https://t.co/8iDUJbfR8D

Nehlen, who was previously endorsed by Breitbart.com, Steve Bannon, Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter, also grew so frustrated he told Podhoretz to deport himself.
Self deport you steaming dung heap. https://t.co/9cAcTk8SEa

To which Podhoretz responded:
Ah, so you’re an anti-Semite too! Mazel tov, big guy! This will go great on your resume. Hey, my grandparents started a Zionist camp in your adopted state. Maybe you should go there and try to convert the kids to Moronism. https://t.co/3McpeQnMp6

So Bannon’s catamite @pnehlen has, in the past 12 hours, suggested I commit suicide and called on me, born and raised in the U.S. but Jewish, to “self-deport.”

We’ve noted Nehlen’s race-baiting before, his conspiracy theories, and his trouble with the police, but we believe this is the first time that Nehlen has asked a journalist to kill himself and then deport himself. At least, in that order.
