Republicans moved to distance themselves from Florida congressional candidate George Buck after he called for Ilhan Omar and Democrats to be hanged.
WASHINGTON – National and local Republicans moved to distance themselves from Florida congressional candidate George Buck after he called for Rep. Ilhan Omar,The National Republican Congressional Committee , House Republicans' campaign arm, removed Buck from their"Young Guns" program, the Republican program to recruit candidates in competitive races and raise money for them.
Todd Jennings, chairman of the Pinellas County Republican Party, the local Republican Party chapter, wrote on Facebook: "There is no room for this kind of inflammatory rhetoric in either political party. No one should ever condone a candidate's call for violence." Buck told the Tampa Bay Times,"Anyone who commits treason against the United States should be tried to the full extent of the law," and he sent the outlet the federal definition of the penalties for treason, which include the death penalty. Tlaib responded on Twitter, saying that"white supremacy" had spread within the NRCC.
