Other right-wing pundits also ganged up on Baldwin after Hutchins’ death. Commentator Candace Owens accused Baldwin of the “murder” of “innocent people”,which she later corrected.
Republican lawmaker Lauren Boebert and Republican Senate candidate J.D. Vance mocked Baldwin,with the latter asking that former president Donald Trump be reinstated on Twitter so he could address his former tormentor.
Those comments drew fire from his Democratic rival in Ohio,Tim Ryan,who tweeted “Someone died,you a---hole.”
Even Fox News host Janice Dean urged Vance to take down his tweet.
