Mandel Boasts That Israel Never Had Slavery [VIDEO]

Playbook reports:

Ohio GOP Senate candidate Josh Mandell and Dem candidate Morgan Harper participated in a debate Monday evening. Things got, uh, interesting.

Axios’ Columbus man Tyler Buchanan tweeted a thread of clips from the debate, including one where Mandel spars with an audience member, one where he insults Harper’s intelligence and invokes Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. (D-N.Y.).

And then there’s one where Mandel says: “Morgan, do you know the only country on the whole planet where Africans were not brought as slaves? The Jewish state of Israel.” (Um … Israel declared its independence in 1948.) Harper refused to shake Mandel’s hand after it was over.
