Ohio sate senator makes comment at rally hosted by Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance
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.”
Odds are there will be no real civil war. The assault on the capitol only worked because Trump was in power letting it happen, and even then they didn't get too far. A lot of those assholes went to prison.
I believe them and that’s why I want to have them start a civil war. It’s the best way to purge these elements and it won’t take days to do so, more like minutes.
