Sen.Ā JD Vance gave a āchallengeā for Americans to visit Springfield, Ohio, on Saturday as he continued to take aim at the community rocked by a racist lie pushed by him and former PresidentĀ Donald Trump.
Vance, at a Pennsylvania campaign rally, addressed a reporter who was booed for asking about his commentsĀ that heās willing to ācreate storiesāĀ should it mean the media pays attention to the false narrative that Haitian immigrants are eating pets in Springfield.

His remarks come after the Ohio city has facedĀ over 30 bomb threatsĀ and Springfield Mayor Rob RueĀ claiming emergency powersĀ in order āto mitigate public safety concerns.ā

The GOP Governor of Ohio wrote an NY Times op-ed talking about what a nice place Springfield is and how terrible it is that domestic terrorists have threatened the population.
Heās also going to vote for Trump
Conservatives operate completely on fear. His eyes can see and understand the lies about his town. But to question all the other lies would be to question faith.
The cognitive dissonance with conservatives is incredibly strong. It would be fascinating if it werenāt so harmful.
What amazes me is that he wrote the article in the first place. If I was in his shoes Iād have punted the essay to the townās mayor. The hard core MAGoos will condemn him for writing for the Times and the rest of the world will jeer him forever.
He says heās going to vote for Trump. I have a suspicion that quite a number of politicians who gobble his mushroom publicly in order to court the loony vote will privately vote for Harris.
Profiles in courage they are not.
Heāll privately vote for Harris and then demand an investigation when she wins his stateās electors.
