So why wasn’t he ejected from the building mid-speech?
Hey, Maddy, great speech so far but if you aren’t gonna wear a mask in here you’ll have to finish it on Zoom from the parking lot.
ETA:
Pelosi: “Representative Cawthorn, you must be correct about my lack of divinity. I’ve been clicking the “Smite” button up here nonstop since you started talking and yet you haven’t been struck by lightning. Yet. “
Okay, I just talked to your god. It says wear a mask.
There must be a god. Natural selection couldn’t produce a life form that is 100% asshole.
Masks = tyranny. I hate to stoop to this level but what a bunch of fucking selfish crybaby pussies.
Fucking Republican shitheads; shitheads one and all.
With the ‘Spanish Flu’ in 1918 they had the correct idea
(i’ll never understand why masks (let alone vaccines) bring out the morons to such a degree. does your seat belt offend thee? -sigh-)
To threaten arrest on others for their own personal medical decisions is nothing short of a medical apartheid.
I’m glad to hear him come out as pro-choice…
What a Drama Llama.
Political outrage entertainment is big clicks these days! Woohoo!
It’s like paying for the product you don’t want to exist.
Just once, I would love to hear a Democrat reply “I’m asking you to put a piece of paper on your face in order to prevent someone else from dying of a disease that has already killed 600,000 Americans. Is that too difficult for you?”
This dude is always grandstanding.
When you have nothing intelligent to say just drag god or the bible in as your authority and source of knowledge. Pathetic toadies! Just be honest for once and say trump wants me to talk like this so I am. At least people would believe that.
“Dull knife, just ain’t cuttin’…”
Does this florid, pseudo-Biblical rhetoric still play in NC like it did in 1895? Or is he just indulging his inner drama queen?
There have to be some Aaron Sorkinisms tucked in that speech somewhere
