Trump Jr. Targets Missouri Activist in Latest Attack on Gerrymander Opponents
As Missourians fight to stave off a GOP gerrymander by putting it to a statewide vote, the President of United States’ eldest son entered the fray Wednesday, attacking the referendum’s organizer on social media.
In response, the organizer, Richard Von Glahn, told Democracy Docket that backers of the ballot measure won’t back down, insisting: “Our democracy is ours. It isn’t theirs.”
Von Glahn spoke not long after being targeted online by Donald Trump Jr.
“Leftist nut job Richard Von Glahn is trying to STEAL a GOP house seat in Missouri through an unlawful referendum,” Trump Jr. wrote on the social media platform X, adding a link to a volunteer sign-up form for a group called Patriot Grassroots.
