    Cited for having a loaded gun at an airport, twice, charges for driving with a revoked license twice, charges of speeding...

    Lied about his accident. At this point, peaches and cream. GOP loved him.

    He said was invited by GOP members to orgies and coke. Then, uhm, maybe not that much.

    Accused of insider trading.

    Recently, pictures of him wearing a bra.

    Now, THAT video. Yikes.

    in this video, I was being crass with a friend, trying to be funny.
    We were acting foolish, and joking.
    That’s it.
    - M. C.

    Have you seen it? Are you funny like that?

    He says it is a drip drip campaign against him by RINOS. So, could we expect more. Again, YIKES!



    Do you think this is the end of his short political career? Or that he'll survive because he is MAGA? GOP leadership has been silent so, maybe he's as lucky as Gaetz, MTG, Boebert and co.

      I forgot this part.

      "He was accused of sexual misconduct by multiple former classmates at Patrick Henry, which he attended after the crash.

      Classmates and alumni circulated an open letter last year describing him as having a "reputation for predatory behavior." The letter alleged he would invite women on "joy rides" and then "make unwanted sexual advances" after locking the doors of his car. Multiple women attested to this in the Post article and in a BuzzFeed article.

        I know, he is a creep all the way around....

        The Right has a way of just sweeping refuse under the rug, rather than properly cleaning the floor.

        MAGA is a powerful potion and it can influence people to act outside of basic "common sense".

          Yes, apparently he is a creep. But he's more than that. A proven liar and worse.

          But that's the norm now.

            No, we have had these types in office for many many decades.  We have had two presidents in a row accused of raping women... Did we vote for them?  My God the list of these types is endless. 

            Hopefully, we will rid ourselves of these types. Let's start with  Madison Cawthorn, and Joe Biden.

      Inside the Republican campaign to take down Madison Cawthorn

      “There are so many people saying crazy things these days and people shrug their shoulders, but it was more of the personal behavior that people started to view him as immature and erratic... He would be a modern-day Icarus, except he flew into the sun.”
      “No matter whether he wins or not, he’s severely damaged."

      “They shouldn’t have been waiting until he accused them of having orgies,” said George Erwin, a former sheriff in Henderson County, N.C., who backed Cawthorn in 2020 and renounced him after he spoke to the Trump rally on Jan. 6, 2021, that preceded the attack on the U.S. Capitol. Erwin is now supporting a primary rival, Rod Honeycutt.

      “They should have been speaking up a long time ago. As a lifelong Republican, I have a problem with that.”

      Bye.

      Madison Cawthorn concedes North Carolina GOP House primary.

      Cawthorn had Trump's endorsement, but Chuck Edwards ran on his track record in state senate

      Once hailed as a rising star in the party who can counter the progressive Squad with an America First message, Cawthorn had a difficult re-election, with certain GOP congressional leaders losing faith in him following a string of questionable actions.

      Cawthorn maintained his support from former President Trump, who urged supporters in a last minute message on his Truth Social site to not give up on the young congressman.

      Well, it didn't work.
