They are going to get someone killed. And when it happens they need to be charged with being accessories before the fact because it will be their dangerous rhetoric that triggers one of their cultists who will get his weapon of war and go on a rampage.

Theyi're already accessories to multiple murders. Even if you left Jan. 6th out, the El Paso shooter's motivation was to drive "illegals" out of the US. Same with the Christchurch murders in New Zealand.

Absolutely on the mark: esp. the last 2 paragraphs. Coupled with an ever more desperate R ticket, party and followers, the rest of us should be focusing on their promises of bloodbaths and R efforts to excuse/legitimize them. Thank you for calling this out.

Those who fan the flames of violence often wind up dying in the fire they started. I guess they don't teach that at Yale Law School.

Don’t use weasel words. They aren’t “neo-Nazis”. They are Nazis. Full stop.

Has Senator Vance done anything to use his powers as a US senator to stop the pet-eating? If not, he probably doesn’t believe it is true, and therefore is just attempting to rile up the troublemakers. Despicable.

You kidding? Conservatives don't generally fix problems; they just like to complain. A lot.

This is truly horrific. I am so disgusted with “mainstream” media for not covering Trump’s mental decline and malignant narcissism. All of this plays into and results in stochastic terrorism. These bombastic statements are meant to agitate, rile up and instigate his followers.. Already bomb threats have been made in Springfield and schools had to close. This is just the run up for his sadistic desire to run immigrants out of the country.

Trump is an evil, mentally disturbed person. He is wily enough to get others to do his bidding, hence J.D.Vance.

Read the book “Caste” by Isabelle Wilkerson. The very human tragedy of hierarchy is not new and certainly is tragic. There is room for all of us globally to live in comfort, safety and peace. Never assume that someone or some group that wants to objectify and crush another isn’t capable of terrible things. It is proven over and over. No one is immune.

Exactly my point, schmuck. Trump and JD are using this poor family's pain

Okay, the way your initial comment was worded sounded a lot like a Trumper doing the old "See, see, this is proof the immigrants are killing people!" dodge. Clearly that wasn't your intention.

We're good, I should probably work on my 'comment precision'

Truth

Like RFK Jr says in his Fauci book: “Existential truths” are all you need. The reason he joined Trump is so that he could be with people who believe the same “Existential truths” that he does. No need for actual, verifiable truth at all.

WELL DONE!!

I can hardly wait for the Vance book after they get thrashed and J.e.D and the wife jump in the canoe with her picture of a cat and get those oars backing that canoe in reverse up the river!!

But, as on January 6th, when Trump was safe and warm in the White House watching TV and working on a cheeseburger tower THEY will both be far from any actual participation or threat of physical harm. “Stand back and stand by- we’re with you 1000%!!”

The meme should simply say, “This is the best answer “Senator” Vance had for helping Springville?” Really?!Couldn’t have thought of anything better, huh?

Absolutely spot on! Everyone needs to share this.
