Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) has reached the end of his rope with fellow North Carolina congressman Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC).
Republicans’ outrage over Cawthorn’s Veep-esque account of congressional indiscretions stands in glaring contrast to their [muted response] to Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Paul Gosar (R-AZ) speaking at a white nationalist conference last month.
Because White nationalists are the base of the Republican Party.
The worst part of all of this is Cawthorn has managed to inflict a black eye on cocaine fueled orgies.
MadCaw is trying to singlehandedly ressurect Penthouse Letters.
Badly…
…“I never thought this would happen to me…”, a line that is now classic thanks to Penthouse Letters…
Hmmmm - Tillis is around the age that Cawthorn was talking about. And both are from NC so I’m guessing Tillis is one of those guys Cawthorn “looked up to”. They are even from the same part of the state.
So Thom - had any parties lately?
Tom “Penile Projection” Tillis claims what?? There’s nothing worse than a boring orgy!!
Clearly, Cawthorn’s real offence is allowing it to be thought that any Republican would be so uncool as to invite him to an orgy - no-one wants to be branded with that mark!
“Nothing worse than a boring orgy.”
But enough about the Bismarck ND Swedish Picnic.
Yeah, all those bachelor farmers running aloof.
Tillis, like Burr, does not seek derp-as-a-media-affair as much as a lot of others.
Madcaw raised $2.9 mil in 2021, yet he’s in a worse campaign cash position than his main challenger Edwards. Where did the money go? Regardless, it appears his stupid stunts are desperate outrage fundraising. Every time he says something outrageous (like his orgy comments), he gets a bunch of out of state campaign donations. Same strategy MTG and Gaetz were using, until people (sic) got tired of them.
Boebert, Greene, and Cawthorn
Now who did I leave out.
McCarthy told Politico afterward that Cawthorn didn’t provide any evidence of the alleged orgies
McCarthy added, “Ideally the evidence would be a set of 8 by 10 color prints. And a splashguard, please, if you’ve got one.”
Poor widdle Maddy; as my ex used to say, his alligator mouth put his hummingbird ass in a crack. I do hope he’s defeated next November, if he gets that far.
Cawthorne’s mistake was saying that Republicans were engaging in coke-fueled (and not Diet©) orgies. It’s the party line to allege that Democrats do it. Rookie mistake.
Yes rookies make mistakes. That’s why they should STFU and listen during their first term at least.
Except that in this case he’s pissed off powerful Goobers in DC and his state government all of whom seek reelection as “clean livers”. I would think that a mud and shit encrusted hog would get the primary nod from Sen. Tillis and the rest of his crowd rather than young Master Hot Wheels.
Yeah, well drug addled, orgy playing, trailer park dwellers are not all that uncommon among the base, either. So, there’s got to be something we’re missing…
