A controversial New Hampshire state representative who once said that former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton “should be shot for treason” was among the attendees at a White House bill signing Friday morning.
Al Baldasaro, who served as a delegate for then-candidate Donald Trump at last year”s Republican National Convention, was present as the president signed a bill to reform the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Baldasaro”s presence drew particular notice given recent calls by the administration, and across Washington, for dialing back partisan rhetoric in the aftermath of last week”s shooting at a Republican congressional baseball practice in Virginia that left House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., in critical condition. (He has since been upgraded to fair condition.)
Asked about Baldasaro”s presence at Friday”s press briefing, White House press secretary Sean Spicer condemned all comments suggesting violence against another person.
“I don’t believe, and the president has said this as well, that anybody that goes out and tries to highlight those kinds of actions, should not be welcome,” said Spicer. “I’m not aware of the comments [Baldasaro] made, but again, I’ll say it right now, I don’t think we should be resorting that kind of language with anyone in our country.”
