Like former President Donald Trump, first-term North Carolina Congressman Madison Cawthorn has tested voters. How far is too far?
A series of inflammatory statements from Cawthorn — who will appear at a Trump rally in North Carolina on Saturday — led some fellow Republicans to criticize him, and it's testing whether voters will turn to one of seven GOP candidates who are challenging him in next month's state primary.
Cawthorn, who at 26 is the youngest member of Congress, has in the past been accused of sexual misconduct. He said there would be "bloodshed" if the next election was stolen, and he called those arrested during the Jan. 6 attack "political hostages."
Now two more:
Last month, he called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy "a thug" and said the Ukrainian government is "incredibly corrupt."
And on a conservative podcast, Cawthorn talked about watching people do cocaine and about what he said is "sexual perversion" in Washington, D.C.

I remember him being in his wheelchair Doling out pizzas to National Guard soldiers who were cold sitting in parking structures after the January 6th stupid riot. I thought he was a nice guy coming out to show support of the division of National Guard sent too little and too late to Washington DC. It's too bad that this guy is thinking like that. The president of Poland is the new Winston Churchill. There still may be some corruption and Ukraine but look at the alternative? Russians are massacring many ukrainians and hitting protected sites like hospitals and places marked as non-combatant.
On a good note, it's great to see a bunch of Democrats that do not want to get rid of title 42.
Some Democrats will consider these Democrats traitors but I consider them to be Patriots. These Democrats are also in purple districts and are subject to being voted out so that's why they are acting moderate all of a sudden.

Anybody should be able to voice their opinion and if they make a negative comment, then they should be able to back it up with proof.

If I'm not mistaking this is the same goof ball that during Supreme Court Justice Jackson questioning that Senator Booker had to interrupt Cawthorn's demanding interruptions of Ms. Jacksons answers, this person should never be allowed to be so unprofessional when elected into a position that represents a State or district, its just another embarrassment to our Politicians on Capital Hill and partially the reason both sides can't agree on the most simplest issues, I truly think McConnell, Cruz and this person need to be shipped off this planet far far away
