Cawthorn meets the classic definition of a “geek”:
“a performer at a carnival or circus whose show consists of bizarre or grotesque acts.”

“Remember that Zelensky is a thug,” the congressman says. “Remember that the Ukrainian government is incredibly corrupt and it is incredibly evil and it has been pushing woke ideologies.”

Ladies and gentlemen, meet your new 2022 Midterms Poster Child.

How about we all go in together on a one-way air ticket to Moscow for old Maddie. Or better yet, attach a rocket on the back of his wheelchair, point him in the right direction and wish him luck.

Pushing woke ideologies like national sovereignty, self defense and international diplomacy. How evil of him.

If you really believed that, mad one, you’d be kissing his ass and inviting him to keynote the repub convention.

What you’re really doing is singing another verse from the fascist hymnal 'You Can’t Make Me be Decent. You Can’t, Can’t Can’t.

I’ve said it in the past, but he seems incapable of coming up with his own ideas. Everything he says is tritely rehashed from whatever “authority” figure he’s glommed onto.

You could have just kept your mouth shut, ding-dong. Nobody cares what you have to say, you weren’t put in a jam where you had to choose between a handler and your voters.

He needs his village to come get him, or some other form of intervention. Maybe a chat with Qevin?

And they have their poster girl to choose among Marjorie Taylor Greene and Laurent Boebert. However very few if any will change their vote, because warts and all those people are their own, and they will not under any circumstances vote for any of the evil members of the other tribe.

If Cawthorn believes Zelensky is the thug in this war then I suppose he would have cheered the Japanese as they attacked Pearl Harbor and sank several battle ships on Dec. 7th, 1941 mainly cuz of that “thug” in the White House… that democrat, FDR.

Can someone book him on a one way flight to Moscow? He clearly hates western democracies.
