Paul Ryan's logo sparks debate over stark resemblance to Nazi symbol

Updated

Speaker of the House Paul Ryan recently ignited Twitter after he called out newly-elected Congressman Roger Marshall's dabbing teen son during a photo op.

Well, it seems the top Republican has just been thrust back into the social media spotlight.

A mere two days after the aforementioned dabbing incident, he has set Twitter ablaze yet again -- this time, with his logo.

As Twitter user Eric Vespe has pointed out, Ryan's eagle icon bears an unfortunate resemblance to another infamous logo from history -- namely, the national symbol of Adolf Hitler's Third Reich.

Check it out for yourself.

Here's Ryan's logo:
