A Republican state senator has called for “civil war” if Donald Trump loses the presidential election in November.

George Lang, an Ohio politician, made the comment as he introduced JD Vance at his first solo campaign event since becoming Trump’s running mate.

After taking to the stage fist-raised and shouting Trump’s post-shooting battle cry “Fight! Fight!”, Mr Lang warned of an existential threat facing Americans. He declared in front of a large, heated crowd in Ohio: “We are in the fight for the soul of our nation… for our kids, for our grandkids, it is a fight we can never imagine.

“I believe wholeheartedly, Donald Trump and Butler County’s JD Vance are the last chance to save our country. Politically, I’m afraid if we lose this one, it’s going to take a civil war to save the country.”

    What say we start a list of the posts saying this and after Trump loses to that black lady we spam the posts back onto their feeds?

    Name and shame these cunts, if they can’t play fair eliminate their voting rights. If that isn’t enough send them to prison. If that’s not enough, I’m sure you can extrapolate. There is no room for bad faith actors in our country.

      Plenty of room for bad faith actors in the country. No room for them in the government.

        If we fix our election system, the voters will decide who makes up the government.

        It’s all fine and dandy until we eliminate the electoral college.
