Donald Trump’s campaign is just going with unfettered racism now along with stoking fear and discrimination against those living with HIV.

In the aftermath of Tuesday’s presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, Trump’s running mate, Ohio U.S. Sen. JD Vance, made a series of controversial, bigoted, and inflammatory statements during an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. Vance doubled down on debunked claims about Haitian immigrants abducting pets to eat them and falsely linked the migrant community to rising rates of HIV and tuberculosis in Springfield, Ohio. His remarks have since drawn widespread condemnation for their harmful, fear-mongering nature.

    I’m just so frustrated. Here we are, I feel the Earth melting under my feet more and more. Every day I wake up to 3-4 weather warnings on my phone. Yet, all half the country can focus on is racist and bigoted bullshit. I truly believe we will all die while listening to the same insane musings.
