An Ohio father, Nathan Clark, has urged Donald Trump to stop using his son Aiden's death in a school bus crash for political purposes. Aiden, 11, died in an August 2023 crash in Springfield, Ohio, which gained national attention after Trump’s campaign made baseless claims about Haitian immigrants. Trump's running mate, JD Vance, referred to Aiden on social media, falsely stating that "a child was murdered by a Haitian migrant." Nathan Clark, speaking at a city commission meeting, said the comments reopened wounds and demanded an end to the politicization of his son's death for political gain.
