“Don’t lecture Donald Trump about softening his rhetoric after two people tried to kill him — it’s ridiculous!
“Tell Kamala Harris, tell Joe Biden, tell all of her surrogates who are saying things like ‘Donald Trump needs to be eliminated,’ they need to cut that crap out or they’re going to get somebody hurt.
“In fact, they already did get somebody hurt. Corey Comperatore lost his life, two other people nearly lost their lives in Butler, PA, because these guys have let the rhetoric in this country get totally out of control.
“I don’t believe in censorship, I don’t believe in trying to shut people up, I believe in debating people.
“But what these guys have tried to do every single time they get an opportunity, they want to throw him in prison, they want to kick him off social media.
“They want to do everything that they can to silence Donald Trump and they send that signal with every action that they take.
“Well, if you’re trying to silence Donald Trump and you’re sending the message, ‘We have to do everything that we can to silence Donald Trump,’ a crazy person is eventually going to take that message to heart.” – J.D. Vance, speaking before Ralph Reed’s evangelical group.
Vance literally just shut down an entire town in the state he represents with bomb threats and death threats to employers over a hoax he made up. https://t.co/EfH8ziue7G
