J.D. Vance seemingly admitted that he and Donald Trump have been spreading racist lies about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio.
During an interview Sunday with CNN’s Dana Bash, Vance flailed as he attempted to downplay his ticket’s role in spreading completely discredited rumors that Haitian immigrants in Springfield were eating their neighbors’ cats and dogs. With Vance and Trump’s help, the cartoonishly racist lies made their way to the national stage, fueling right-wing hysterics and resulting in multiple bombthreats in the city of Springfield.

Agreed. There’s a huge gap between making a statement ignorant of all the facts, jumping the gun while making assumptions, and straight up lying.
Rs were confronted almost immediately with truth and corrections and they straight up lied just to cause drama. stirring up thier brainless followers and other racists to react.
There’s manslaughter.
Then there’s premeditated murder.
