Donald Trump‘s incoming appointees are already receiving vicious backlash from some in the country … with nearly a dozen incoming members of the team receiving violent threats, according to the campaign.
The Trump-Vance transition team announced the news Wednesday morning … sharing a press release about the “vicious, unAmerican threats to their lives and those who live with them.
The statement explains some of these members received bomb threats … while others were swatted in their homes instead.
The Trump team thanks law enforcement for their quick response … before writing that DJT is trying to unite the country — and acts of intimidation and violence will not deter the team.
Matt Gaetz — no longer a cabinet appointee after withdrawing his name from attorney general consideration — also reportedly received a pipe bomb threat.
A bomb-sniffing dog was dispatched to his home this morning, though at this time it’s unclear if there is a bomb there or not. The bomb squad has now reportedly been dispatched.
