Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance has dug in on his claim Haitians in an Ohio community are abducting and eating pets, even as the state’s GOP governor and other officials insist there is no evidence of such behavior.
But the salacious claim was easily debunked.
“The Vance campaign provided the Wall Street Journal with a police report to prove their claims about cat-eating Haitians in Springfield. The WSJ spoke to the woman who filed it, who said she later found her cat alive and well in her basement. She also apologized to her Haitian neighbors.” Justin Baragona posted to X with a link to a story in The Wall Street Journal.

why are they doubling down on this i don’t get it
Because it all boils down to Trump’s ego.
Saying it made him look like an utter fool. So his enablers will do whatever they have to do to prove that he was “correct”.
It’s honestly frightening.
It’s quite literally how children react to being wrong.
Literally dead cat method.
Distract you with an issue, to divert attention from a) shit debate performance, b) lack of policies
This. Everyone posting this is allowing Trump and Vance to control the narrative again.
Surely this will change their minds.
/s, unfortunately
Their base believes it and it riles people up at Trump rallies. That’s why.
