FOX6- MADISON — Former White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus says he won’t run for Congress to replace House Speaker Paul Ryan.
Priebus ruled out a run on “The Jay Weber Show” Thursday.
Priebus was one of several potential candidates that Republicans in Wisconsin said Wednesday may be interested in running for the seat that includes Kenosha, where Priebus used to live.
Priebus is the former Wisconsin Republican Party chairman, a post he held until he left in 2011 to serve as Republican National Committee chairman. He served just six months as chief of staff before resigning in July.
He now lives outside of Washington where he works as an attorney.
Other Republicans considering running include Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, Ryan friend and attorney Bryan Steil (STYLE) and several other lawmakers.
I know of a crusty old auto mechanic from the back country of Wisconsin that should run….How about it Combat Matt?
how about another straight talking citizen who isn’t a career politician for a change ?
Mittens? Mitt-ens?
Do I hear the trickle of a draining swamp?
Let’s send Doc’s guy!
Because all his opponent’s ads would start with, “He was fired from the White House. Why would we let him into ours?”
One of Ryan’s early republican challengers, PaulNehlen, is being trashed as both a white nationalist and a Jew hater. Admittedly, I have not been following his candidacy and all of the leading google searches take to alt left sites only.
See? I can “alt” them right back.
Anybody with local knowledge out there that can
enlighten us?
Yeah, Nehlen went nuts. I think he should really be tested for a brain tumor. Dude was being off the wall as recently as February.
You’d have to look at his twitter feed (he got thrown off) to see other stuff. He was going after every race, women, etc. Weirdo.
Here’s just a little bit about Nehlen:

Rinsed Pubies? AGAIN???
Who knew? Maybe Jebbie The Hall Monitor or Kasich should move to WI…
Oh yikes. Thanks MJA. I just didn’t know.
Nehlen is a whack job. Wisconsin needs to scramble to put up a viable candidate.
Good news. Reince is a RINO king among RINOS.
If he or she won’t jump in bed with the business lobby its a good start.
Ryan feathered his nest with them as did Boner before him.
I’ll take “answers to questions no one asked” for $1000, Alex.
Darn.
