With ambivalence toward the Republican presidential nominee running high, this year’s G.O.P. convention has been less a rally for Donald Trump than a Hillary Clinton hate-fest. The past several days of the Republican National Convention have been peppered with calls for additional investigations into her e-mail scandal and to prosecute her for Benghazi. On Tuesday, Trump manservant Chris Christie incited more excitement among the crowd at the Quicken Loans Arena than at any point during his failed presidential campaign, when he promised to “present the case” against Clinton, whom he proceeded to deem guilty in absentia for a host of alleged crimes. “Lock her up!,” the crowd chanted in response.

At the G.O.P. convention, slamming Clinton was to be expected. One Trump delegate, however, took his anti-Hillary rhetoric too far during an interview on the Jeff Kuhner Show. Al Baldasaro, a New Hampshire state representative, is now the focus of a Secret Service investigation for statements he made about the presumptive Democratic nominee. Baldasaro, who is also an adviser to Trump on veterans’ affairs, said Clinton is “a disgrace for the lies that she told those mothers about their children that got killed over there in Benghazi,” and added: “This whole thing disgusts me. Hillary Clinton should be put in the firing line and shot for treason,” BuzzFeed News reports.

Now, the Secret Service has launched an investigation into Baldasaro, who has reportedly spoken at numerous Trump events, for his comments. In the wake of the inflammatory statements, the G.O.P. nominee’s campaign has distanced itself from the vocal delegate, with a spokesperson saying his support is appreciated but they “don’t agree with his comments,” according to BuzzFeed.
