State senator at Vance rally - "if we lose this one, it's going to take a civil war to save the country" [View all]

But the afternoon’s most heated rhetoric came from a local lawmaker, state Sen. George Lang, who warned of a “civil war” if Trump and Vance lose the election this fall.

“I believe wholeheartedly: Donald Trump and Butler County’s JD Vance are the last chance to save our country politically,” Lang said at the event’s opening program. “I’m afraid if we lose this one, it’s going to take a civil war to save the country, and it will be saved. It’s the greatest experiment in the history of mankind.”
