JD Vance Demands People Stop Using 'Nazi' As Insult And Gets Mocked [View all]

JD Vance’s past came to haunt him on Wednesday after he demanded Americans stop using the word “Nazi” as an insult.

During a rally in Concord, North Carolina, the vice president claimed that the shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement location in Dallas earlier in the day was “politically motivated” and that Democratic rhetoric encourages violence against law enforcement.

However, authorities said the suspect didn’t shoot ICE agents; he killed an immigrant detainee and wounded two others before taking his own life.

Vance had a suggestion for how such tragedies could be prevented.

“If you want to stop political violence, stop telling your supporters that everyone who disagrees with you is a Nazi,” he said.
