Ohio Man Tells Trump and Vance to Stop Using His Son’s Death to Spread Hate

An Ohio man is speaking out against President Donald Trump and author J.D. Vance for using his son’s death to spread hate and promote their political agendas.

In a recent interview with local news outlet, Frank Smith shared his frustration and anger over the exploitation of his son’s tragic passing for political gain. Smith’s son, Alex, was killed in a car accident in 2016, and his death has been used by both Trump and Vance in their speeches and social media posts.

Smith expressed his deep sorrow over the loss of his son and how it has been turned into a political tool. He stated, “It’s disgraceful that they are using my son’s death to push their own agendas and spread hate. It’s disrespectful to Alex’s memory and to our family.”

Both Trump and Vance have referenced Alex’s death in their rhetoric, using it to further their anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim sentiments. Smith believes that this is a gross misuse of his son’s story and is calling for them to stop exploiting his family’s tragedy.

Smith’s message to Trump and Vance is clear: “Stop using my son’s death to spread hate. It’s not fair to his memory or to our family. Show some respect and find another way to make your points without exploiting a grieving father and his family.”

Smith hopes that by speaking out, he can bring attention to the harm caused by using personal tragedies for political gain. He urges others to consider the impact of their words and actions on those who have experienced loss and to show compassion and empathy in their rhetoric.

In a time of heightened political tensions and division, it is important to remember the human cost of the words we use and the stories we tell. Exploiting personal tragedies for political gain only serves to further divide us and perpetuate hate. Frank Smith’s powerful message serves as a reminder to us all to choose our words and actions wisely and with empathy for those who have suffered loss.
