Vance: “Trump’s Supporters Are Not Violent People”

“Donald Trump’s supporters are not violent people. You live in a country of 330 million people, of course, some people are gonna do some bad things. But, if we want to get back at the New York sham prosecution, my message to every Trump supporter is go to DonaldJTrump.com, volunteer, support him, and vote in November. The only language that these people speak is power. We’ve got to win the presidency, Wolf, and save this country.” – Sen. J.D. Vance, who was immediately fact-checked about the Capitol riots by CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, leading Vance to concede, “a few people were violent, certainly.”

Wolf: How worried are you that Trump supporters could become violent after this verdict?

Vance: Not at all. Trump supporters are not violent people.
