"If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. Term limits ain't going to do any good; you're just going to end up with a brand new bunch of selfish, ignorant Americans." - George Carlin

If only someone would say "Putin, if you're listening, we would really like your dirt on Trump! You could do us a favor"!

[srb]

It speaks volumes that they ignored every single vile word he spoke before but as soon as he snitched on them they suddenly found a voice.

Will say this everytime, we need to start vetting our candidates better. However, this is what conservatives chose to be upset about? Not the Nazi stuff or Cawthorn being a pathological liar... You reap what you sow

"Oh no he outed us". "He's not one of us." -Every republican.

They think Cawthorn is an embarrassing ignoramus? Maybe now the GOP can understand how the rest of the world views THEM.

[mirjamkohler]

Cawthorn IS the Republican party. He represents them perfectly.

I’ve never believed a word Cawthorn has ever said. But I choose to believe this because I’m petty and it is hilarious. 😳 Their reactions make them seem guilty. He’s talking about Matt Gaetz (spell check) and everybody knows it.

Let's not assume that Republicans are going to win back Congress. Voters have to decide whether they want an autocracy or Democracy. Vote blue 💙 in 2022

Remember what Susan Collins said after she voted to not remove Trump after he was impeached for trying to shake down Zelensky? She said, " I think he's learned his lesson."

No he didn't learn his lesson, Senator Susan Collins.

[jeanneeber]

Cawthorn is not emotionally mature enough to be in Congress.
He's still stuck in the video-game mentality & harmful gossip stage of late adolescence.

[cranjismcbasketball]

The only reason that the GOP members are mad about this is because it paints the rest of THEM in a negative way, but if Trump were to say something like this on air, who's to say that they would still be angry?

[grinpick]

Sharp change of direction for the Republican party: Being an embarrassing ignoramus no longer an asset.

[davidmccain]

" embarrassing ignoramus "....
Hell, that pretty much sums up the entire GOP since

[riparianlife]

Cawthorne has cured me of my ableist prejudices. I never thought I could hate a man in a wheelchair.

[billmiller]

It's like the got the biggest drunk jerk at the bar and made him a Representative. This is where we are .

[px]

Didn’t know karma would catch up with this insurrectionist congressman so fast. Hey you get what you give..

[kts]

Susan Colin should be ashamed of herself. She actually thought that somebody who wanted to be a dictator learned his lesson, it’s completely laughable.

[Elijahgtyler]

The fact that they’re so hard on taking this dude down for saying something that’s allegedly not true just makes it feel like what he said is true.
