Francis Joseph (Frank) Collin founded the National Socialist Party of America. He also molested young boys and took pictures. Somehow it is just perfect that the founder of the National Socialist party went to prison for child molestation, or “indecencies with boys.”
There is a long history of Republicans working with the Nazis in Germany and the American Nazi party. Nazis have run in Republican primaries. The Nazi leader who reported Collin’s molestation to the police went on to become the new leader. He ran in the NC primary for attorney general and got more than 40% of the vote. Most recently in Chicago another Nazi ran in a Congressional primary where he won but only because he was unopposed. To their credit, Republicans endorsed the Democratic candidate, though I doubt they would today.
