Utah Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox: 'I want to punch someone' over family separations at border

Utah’s Republican Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox tweeted in the middle of the night that he was furious over the Trump administration’s decision to prosecute all illegal entrants and consequently separate adults from minors that he just wanted to go “punch” someone.

“Can’t sleep tonight. I know I shouldn’t tweet. But I’m angry. And sad. I hate what we’ve become. My wife wants to go & hold babies & read to lonely/scared/sad kids. I want to punch someone. Political tribalism is stupid. It sucks & it’s dangerous. We are all part of the problem,” Cox tweeted at 3:24 a.m. Mountain time.
