Swalwell: Are you condemning your tweets for praising Kanye West?

Swalwell asks Jordan if he condemns pro-Kanye West tweetthe Republican replied, “That tweet is not on our account. The tweet has been deleted.”
Jordan failed to mention that the tweet had been on the Republican House Judiciary Committee’s account for 55 days.
Even in his answer to Swalwell, Rep. Jordan didn’t condemn Hitler-loving Kanye West.
Is it that hard for an elected republican to openly say that Nazis are evil that they don’t like them?
If Alex Jones can do it, it shouldn’t be hard for the incoming chairman of the House Judiciary Committee to say that the Nazis were evil and that he doesn’t support or like Hitler.
It doesn’t bode well for the American people in a nine-second video in which Jim Jordan previews how he will lead the House Judiciary Committee.
