Sen. Joe Manchin's campaign said it fired its longtime sole staffer who called for Trump to be hanged, but it continued payments months later.
When Fox News Digital contacted the campaign about Collins' post in mid-April, a spokesperson said he was "no longer employed" and that Manchin has no tolerance for such actions.

"Sen. Manchin has always believed that a core pillar of our democracy is civil and respectful disagreement, and he has zero tolerance for violence or threats of violence," the spokesperson said.
