Here is the message JD Vance sent to his friend suggesting Donald Trump might be "America's Hitler."

A state representative from Georgia has thrown a wrench into what was supposed to be something of a coronation for Republican U.S. Senate candidate J.D. Vance. After securing former President Trump’s endorsement last week, Vance was set to campaign with Trump’s son Don Jr. before Trump himself visits Ohio this weekend.

Like Vance, Rep. Josh McLaurin, D-Sandy Springs, went to Yale for law school, and the two lived together for a time. Monday, McLaurin shared an apparent screenshot of a conversation they had in February of 2016.

In the tweet, McLaurin said “the public deserves to know the magnitude of this guy’s bad faith.”

In a statement, Vance campaign manager Jordan Wiggins dismissed the image as old news.
