One of the biggest cheers Vice President JD Vance received during his speech at the midterm convention Thursday night came after a protester waving Mexican and Palestinian flags briefly halted his address. "What the people at home missed is that we just had a protester interrupting us and waving the Mexican flag," he said, per Fox News. "Well, my friend, if you love Mexico so much, get your a-- over there. I'll buy you the plane ticket." See the moment here.
The crowd responded with cheers and chants of "USA!" as the protester was removed from the arena. The interruption came during a speech centered on "America First" themes. "We got to send a message this November," Vance said, per the AP. "This country was handed down to us by our parents and their parents before them. We received this national birthright, and we are going to fight for it by electing Republicans this November."
