'All hell broke loose' after former Trump voters cut ad for Kamala Harris: report

Two lifelong Republicans who cut a campaign ad for Vice President Kamala Harris said they've been living a "nightmare" at the hands of former President Donald Trump's supporters, according to a new report.

Pennsylvania farmer Bob Lange and his wife Kristina told Philadelphia magazine Savvy Mainline on Sunday that they and their business have been bombarded by online and telephone bullying after the ad went live.

"Last Tuesday, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” aired and discussed one of the new ads," the outlet reported. "That’s when hell broke loose."

Bob Lange told Harris' campaign in the ad he voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020 but the U.S. Capitol attacks in 2021 changed his views about the former president.

"Jan. 6 was a wakeup call for me," Bob Lange says in the ad. "He didn't do anything to help us."

"Donald Trump divides people," adds Kristina Lange. "I'm voting for Kamala."

Their troubles began when X user, “Bad Hombre” accused the Langes of being “trained actors” and donors to the Democrats, but cited campaign finance records of different Robert Lange while confusing Kristina with a scenic artist with a different last name, the report noted.

The couple did produce a low-budget horror movie " Hayride to Hell " on their farm starring “Night of the Living Dead” and “Friday the 13th" actors — but only appeared in non-speaking rolls as monsters, the couple said.

Their business Sugartown Strawberries was hit with threats on Facebook and one-star Google reviews and their voicemail filled up with "shockingly profane" and "vicious" messages, according to the report.

A Facebook appeal posted on Sept. 26 begs local customers to ignore the false reporting in the viral tweet — which they said had received more than 1.7 million views.

"We are currently receiving a barrage of messages, based in hate and untruths, to our business website, social media, phone and they have now begun leaving poor Google reviews about our business," the message reads. "PLEASE, do not give credence to these hateful, politically motivated lies. Our community knows our truth."

The couple told Savvy Mainline that they would not undo the past, despite the attacks.

“We have no regrets,” Bob told the outlet. “The Harris team asked us if we wanted them to take the ads down. I said, ‘Absolutely not.’”

“We’re not backing down," added Kristina. "I feel it’s just a matter of standing up for what I believe is right – and that’s my right.”
