Donald Trump’s campaign is just going with unfettered racism now along with stoking fear and discrimination against those living with HIV.

In the aftermath of Tuesday’s presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, Trump’s running mate, Ohio U.S. Sen. JD Vance, made a series of controversial, bigoted, and inflammatory statements during an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. Vance doubled down on debunked claims about Haitian immigrants abducting pets to eat them and falsely linked the migrant community to rising rates of HIV and tuberculosis in Springfield, Ohio. His remarks have since drawn widespread condemnation for their harmful, fear-mongering nature.

    I absolutely blame the journalists for not shutting this down in their interviews. It was easy to see this from a mile away and be prepared for it. I haven’t seen a decent interview since Johnathan Swan interviewed trump. WTF has happened to journalism?!

      You push back and you lose access. That’s how they tame the fourth pillar

        I’d say fine… this should be all of them doing this. Except fox and newsmax… they are entertainment now news channels by their own admission anyway.
