Donald Trump’s running mate went after the media and continued to take aim at the community rocked by his racist lie.
Sen. JD Vance gave a “challenge” 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 President Donald Trump.
Vance, at a Pennsylvania campaign rally, addressed a reporter who was booed for asking about his comments that he’s willing to “create stories” 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 faced over 30 bomb threats and Springfield Mayor Rob Rue claiming emergency powers in order “to mitigate public safety concerns.”

I stopped there on a cross country drive like 20 years ago and it sucked but not because of any weird immigration claims…just because there was nothing really going on. I imagine it’s still pretty boring today but maybe some immigration can put some life into the town.
If the immigration doesn’t work, at least the bomb threats are adding some excitement for the townsfolk.
