The management at the Landing Event Center in suburban Cincinnati didn’t know much about the event that was scheduled for Sunday, the general manager told The Enquirer.

Just that a client asked to rent the Loveland, Ohio space for an event that involved “Hillbilly Elegy” author and Senate candidate J.D. Vance.

Then on Thursday, General Manager Jodi Taylor logged on to her computer. A flood of messages on social media and emails greeted her from people angry about the event. And calls started coming in.

The event was a “meet-and-greet” with J.D. Vance and controversial Georgia Republican U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who just endorsed Vance.
