At a Florida rally, Vice President J.D. Vance told Senate candidate Angie Nixon to leave the country because she calls herself a socialist. The remarks came as Vance campaigned for Senator Ashley Moody, who is running against Nixon.
Vance said Nixon did not belong in America because of her socialist views and criticized her positions on policing and prisons. Moody also told the crowd that Nixon wants to destroy the country’s framework. The article says at least two hecklers were removed while Vance spoke.
Nixon, a Jacksonville-born Democrat who represents a neighborhood in the Florida House, won the Democratic Senate primary against Alexander Vindman in August. Her campaign has focused on living costs and working people’s economic needs. Nixon had not publicly responded to Vance’s comments; the Democratic National Committee criticized Trump and Vance in a statement before the rally.
