Republicans have indeed roundly rejected Jones, saying he had no place in their party, denounced his candidacy, ran robocalls against him at one point and even encouraged primary voters in the district to leave ballots blank rather than vote for Jones. (they got snookered)

This is called "the long con". They had no chance of winning that district, so they'll throw out this guy so they can trash his Nazi ideals. I think it's a good investment.

Ted Cruz is telling people not to vote for him. They did get him thrown off the ballot in 2016 but didn't manage it this time. He wasn't nominated by the party either, he collected enough signatures which he submitted at the last minute catching them off guard.

BTW, the GOP did not 'nominate' him, they only have to collect enough signatures to get on the ballot.
