Some increasingly frustrated Republican members privately hope voters penalize Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) so they don’t have to do it.
Republican leaders have been careful in trying to reprimand Cawthorn and other pro-Trump members for fear of losing the support of Trump supporters or further dividing their splintered party.
Cawthorn also claimed that he had witnessed “people that are leading on the movement to try and remove addiction in our country” consume “a key bump of cocaine right in front of you.” Two days later, Cawthorn was announced as a speaker at Trump’s next political rally. The following week, the young congressman gave a fiery speech to hundreds of Trump supporters in Selma, N.C. He declared that Washington is “controlled by dark forces,” called President Biden a “geriatric despot” who should be impeached and said that Anthony S. Fauci, who has been the face of this pandemic over two administrations, should be imprisoned.
“God spared my life! He has given me the strength to stand before you today!” Cawthorn yelled. “So do not lecture me on what is impossible!”
