Cawthorn needs a psych evaluation.
“Family and Friends” if your listening….
His parents know, they came out against him after he lied about his accident and Ranger involvement!!
@Starr Davis Yikes
He needs to be
♿ very angry boy
He admitted his accident made him “less intelligent”, so a less intelligent, liar accused of sexual assault.
It’s almost like he wants to pick up arms and spill blood of the INNOCENT. *Wtf*
Live by the sword – Die by the sword.
Violence and rage never brings good
@The Bee he is obviously counting on OTHERS to fight for him- HE ain’t doing squat. Mouthpiece alright- speaking is about all he can do
cawthorn will not survive well in prison.
Very pretty and unable to run or fight.
Practically, a sitting duck for potential husbands.
@The Bee – … and not a very good one at that but then none of the crazier ones are (note: Lauren Bobert, Marjorie Taylor Green, Kristi Noem, Rand Paul, Gym Jordan, Kevin McCarthy, etc.)
@Luis Boqcas – get a clue butt wipe!
Tough talk from someone who can be pushed down the stairs.
I was thinking it but couldn’t bring myself to write it
His voice even sounds like a girl

Your genius drump walked up the stairs with toilet paper hanging from his shoe. That was hilarious!
Madison Cawthorn is a fake as well as being a liar; just ask anyone who served on the Admissions Board at the United States Naval Academy! This creature who was nominated to USNA by Mark Meadows claimed he would attend the Academy but his plans were derailed by his automobile accident. That was all a big lie as Cawthorn’s application to USNA was rejected BEFORE his accident!
People like Cawthorn want to believe that ‘might makes right,’ so selfish that they are unwilling to accept that the majority of Americans do not want the kind of fascist dictators that he represents.
He is clearly saying he would be willing to overthrow the current democratic system by force, against other Americans, based on his twisted belief that his supreme demi-god leader didn’t win. That is a Violent Coup my friend…And Treason !!
shot
Vote out all republican nutjobs asap!!
He can’t use his legs to run so the next best thing to do is run his mouth😳
They also assume they will win. They assume people on the left will cower in their basements. The Japanese felt the same of Americans when they attacked Pearl Harbor. Stereotypes mean nothing when metal hits the meat.
“Bloodshed”
Ladies and gentlemen, the party of “Life” and “Family Values” 😆
@Bruh Nice try Karen
@Bruh busting a window at Taco Bell is a far cry from trying to obstruct an election and democracy in general. Pretty much a false equivalency
YOU CAN NOT BE PRO LIFE and PRO GUN. IT’S JUST NOT PHYSICALLY OR LOGICALLY POSSIBLE..
@Bruh Bruh you are 😡
cawthorn will not survive well in prison.

One kick to his wheelchair and he can’t do nothing to defend. Only the loudest are the weakest.
P. S. – I have nothing against honourable people who use wheelchairs.
@David Mccluer how do you know these comments are from democrats? There are a lot of republicans that can’t stand donnie or big mouths like cawthorn.
@SR LC Good ole boy is going to get a lot of the flock killed.
“Shallow brooks babble loudest”
@KittyKAT666Meow — aaaaahh 😂🤣😂💀🤣😂🤣

It’s almost like he’s asking for it.
These lies need to be stopped! I originally thought he was a good person. Like the rest of the Republican, he’s trying to raise money from the base. These Congressional people need to be held to a higher standard then the rest of us. Time to get serious before we loose our Democracy. Don’t they have any rules & regulations that they must follow?? Things need to change… fast!!✨
I agree with your assessment but don’t know why you ever thought he was a good person.
he needs to be expunged from Congress, PERIOD!!! he just violated his oath of office.
Expelled
@Elizabeth Ayres no1 likes a English teacher. 😉
Reckon Kevin will do something??
There is also his accusations against women. Andrew Cuomo had to be held accountable, and so should anyone else including Cawthorn. In October 2020, over 150 former students from Cawthorn’s alma mater, Patrick Henry College, signed a letter saying that his predatory behavior was well-known around campus and that women were warned not to be alone with him. A common detail in the allegations against Cawthorn are the so-called “fun rides” he would take women on, in which he would drive them in his car to isolated locations and, women say, make a move on them.
It’s time to write your congressman/congresswoman to take action against anyone in the house/congress who incites violence or spews lies. Enough is enough!
I agree but won’t do any good
Doesn’t work or Maxine Waters would be gone along with many others.
a letter?😂
I have written to both of my Senators and my Representative….. unfortunately, they are all Republican a**holes and simply reply with condescension…. except for one senator who just ignores my emails (that’s Voldemort who is, in my opinion, an unindicted criminal)
Why don’t we start holding them accountable and sue them for defamation against U.S voting, U.S democracy, U.S constitution. If they can’t provide evidence, we cannot allow them to throw our voting rights, constitution, democracy under the bus.
@Robert Emery no! The 2 ladies running ballots thru counter 3 times was not explained away. The affidavits need to be verify before summited. Which is being done now.
@Robert Emery duh
@Keez Jordan again, just because oan or newsmax didn’t show it to you doesn’t mean it wasn’t explained.
Our fraud detection works, as they caught all the idiots voting in their dead relatives’ names for Chump.
The only significant fraud in the 2020 election was Conald Chump.
Totally agree!! This nut should be arrested for terroristic threats – for inciting harm based upon lies of election fraud. Where is the accountability? Guess there isn’t any. Trump has been lying for at least five years and has not been brought to task. Very disconcerting – wtf over?!
@Robert Emery – as CONald cHump would say himself, BIGLY!!!!!
They need too get his phone records,emails,text messages they did it to Democrats and hid it till apple exposed it Bill bar kept it secret
If the system is rigged how did Republicans on the ticket get elected? Was those wins rigged to…
If he doesn’t get held accountable and expelled things are going to get worse each day
The police officer who heard this poor excuse for a human, threaten the people of this country with violence, should have walked over and handcuffed the arrogant sob.
That man should be expelled. He is not a American.
Vote out all republican nutjobs!!
True
As a distant observer of US politics, I wonder how democracy can allow this level of inflammatory rhetoric without accountability, particularly from a serving politicians. News outlet can debate and sound the alarm as many times as possible, but with no apparent consequence for such inflammatory and inciting languages, US democracy seems at real risk. The danger within seems more deadly than any foreign enemies.
I agree from Canada 🙂 Zoe
ITS A FACT…so many Americans who listen 2 this sh*** r totally BARKING!!!
The rest of the civilised world look on in wonder @ the mentality of SOOO many nutty residents of this out of control nation!!!!!!!
This is one very angry dude to be representing violent in America over and over again.
The man dead eyes says it all 👊🏻👊🏾👊🏿👊🏼👊🏽
♿
He looks (and talks) like a Hitler Youth poster child.
@Robert Emery your so right he has those Stephen Miller eyes! Evil 😈
I don’t mean to be mean. But sad to hear someone who can’t even walk on his two feet calling for bloodshed.
Cawthorn is just one of the same “word-only, nothing to offer” hypocrites, a typical Trump loyalists. For him, the day of Jan. 6 was probably his most glorious day, when he was standing over the crazy crowd, next to Trump, as if he were a hero. He needs the same glorious motivation to move up, so he needs to keep the same propaganda. He is too coward to admit his lie.
Well he wasn’t standing
cawthorn will not survive well in prison.

The Taliban we need to be concerned about is the one that includes Cawthorn, Mo Brooks, and the rest of the GQP.
