Paul Ryan’s pro-Trump challenger: It’s time to consider deporting every Muslim — including citizens

Wisconsin Republican Paul Ryan is up for reelection and his campaign to retake his seat in the U.S. House of Representatives has become an unexpected battle ground in what NBC News called a proxy war between the Republican party establishment and its presidential nominee, Donald Trump.

The controversy has highlighted Ryan’s opponent, Paul Nehlen, who was up till now a little-known businessman now tangling with the current Speaker of the House. Nehlen is a Trump supporter who parrots many of Trump’s views, including a ban on Muslims in the U.S. — a position Ryan has shunned.

It’s also highlighted an unusually bitter aspect of the rivalry. Ryan has endorsed Trump, but Trump has refused to endorse Ryan.

This week, Nehlen was interviewed by Chicago’s Morning Answer and he criticized Ryan, saying he is helping Trump’s Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, and reiterating Trump’s call for barring Muslims from entering the country, and also deporting U.S. citizens who are Muslim.
