VP Vance on Paris Protests: ‘I Guarantee,’ If Those Rioters Were Burning Down N.Y., the Pikers and El-Sayeds Would Be Leading Them

EXCERPT:

VANCE: “Ladies and gentlemen, we have to understand what happens when our nation gives in to these kinds of people, to young men with zero attachment to its land or to its history, with a man who would lie, who is so ashamed of this state that he would lie about being an immigrant from another continent. Like so many of you today, I’ve been watching the terrible scenes taking place across the ocean in France, which, by the way, is a beautiful country, one of America’s — arguably America’s, very first ally more than 250 years ago. And we’ve all watched hordes of massed rioters, many from distant lands, taking over historic city centers, burning down schools and burning down beautiful historical buildings, turning over cars, and looting the storefronts that working families rely on to make a living. My friends, the scene of destruction in Paris may be an ocean away, but ask yourselves, are they really so hard to imagine here in the United States of America? And I guarantee you, if those rioters were burning down New York or Detroit, the Hasan Pikers and the El-Sayeds would be right there leading them and cheering them on.”
