Let me tell you, that motherfucker, the one that was shot, the scafie guy… I mean that guy, what’s was his name, scafie?” Montag could be heard saying. “No, this motherfucker, like his whole job is to like get people, convince Republicans to f***in’ kick people off fuckin’ healthcare. I hate this motherfucker.”
“I’m fucking glad he got shot! I’m glad he got shot. I’m not going to fucking say that in public. I wish he was fucking dead,”
After the shooting at a congressional baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia, which left Republican Congressman Steve Scalise with a gunshot wound to the hip, there was a swell of bipartisan support for Scalise and his fellow Republicans, who were targeted by a progressive Bernie Sanders supporter. But while most Democrats prayed for Scalise and hoped for a quick recovery, another Democrat was caught on tape wishing that he had died.
Phil Montag was serving as co-chair of the technology committee for the Nebraska Democratic Party when the shooting took place. And unlike his fellow Democrats, who responded to the shooting with sympathy and support, Montag responded with hatred.
