Some GOP leaders say Young Republicans who allegedly texted slurs should resign


Following a report this week that several members of the Young Republican organization shared messages in a group chat using slurs, praising Hitler and making jokes about slavery and rape, some GOP leaders are sounding the alarm and calling for their fellow party members to resign.

Republican Gov. Phil Scott of Vermont called out state senator and head of Vermont’s Young Republican chapter Sam Douglass, saying he should resign “immediately” and leave the party over his alleged involvement in the group chat on the Telegram messaging platform, which was first reported by Politico.
