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.

    Politicians stock-in-trade is information. This is their work product.

    I am a software developer. If I turn in software that doesn’t work. I get fired.

    JD Vance, and all other politicians who lie should also be fired for not doing their jobs.

    This is the world I want to live in.
