A Democratic candidate for Wisconsin’s First Congressional District allegedly made light of the tragic events in Waukesha, Wisconsin this Sunday in a now deleted tweet. Randy Bryce was the Democratic nominee for Wisconsin’s First Congressional District in the 2018 midterms. He was defeated by Republican Bryan Steil by a 55 to 42 percent margin.
In a now deleted tweet, Bryce allegedly mocked the events in Waukesha, making a comparison to the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse. Bryce received a significant amount of social media buzz and attention from the mainstream media in his 2018 run, receiving millions of dollars of out of state money from liberal activists across the country. Bryce was attempting to run for Ex-House Speaker Paul Ryan’s congressional seat after the Speaker stepped down in April of 2018.
