Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

McCormick told his constituents that the two Georgia Senators don’t represent those in the room. The truth is, the two Senators care about the people in that townhall.
I am watching the long version and it's insane. The GOP rep scolds the audience for complaining and refuses to answer basic questions. Instead he acts like a total ass and threatens people with force. This is not Democracy. This is BS.
They definitely should have after he made that comparison, in order to educate him... and also force him to resign since he clearly isn't interested in doing his job.
Agree. This guy has been bought by the Council of National Policy (Heritage Foundation). They don't believe in representational democracy so his remarks are on target. They also believe that violence is necessary to control the population. It's all in the documentary Bad Faith.
It’s funny because they call us snowflakes but I can handle being yelled at. I don’t like it and I have something to say about it but I wouldn’t go home crying or threaten to never have another open conversation because of it.
ELON MUSK is doing it presently working on rigging the elections for Republicans. As he did with the presidential elections on WORLDWIDE TELEVISION AND NO STOPPED IT!
I won’t do my oversight job that my inconvenient constituents are asking me to because blah, blah,blah. I owe my oath of allegiance to 🍊💩 and some unelected oligarch.
this is something I still think they haven’t thought all the way through…the “plan” is “let’s just oppress 100 million people” but I think they have no idea how impossible of a challenge they bit off there…Hitlers Germany was much smaller and more in support, and had more limited view of free speech
This guy is full of shit and he knows it - these guys need to be removed - they do not represent their constituents - they only represent themselves and one other asshole -!!
These guys represent the Council of National Policy (Heritage Foundation) who doesn't believe in representational democracy. They don't believe in the right to vote because white men like him have "dominion." That's what we're dealing with here.
Wholly unrelated point but do y’all remember the days when tarring and feathering were things? Anyway, I find congressmen like this distasteful to my sensibilities.
I wonder if these GOP responses that "Trump is no different than Biden" are b/c so few of our reps actually understand how government works, what the bureaucracy does, or what their role is in government. I've always thought it was ideology, but some of these answers point to ignorance
Sat up, cleared my eyes and said "what the hell"! This Georgia, now...today? Maybe there is a bridge too far for the far right. Hurts, doesn't it when it's in your house...Georgia?
McCormick has clearly drunk the Kool Aid and is denying the truth to cozy up to Trump and betray and belittle the very people that sent him to Washington. Maybe he should be primaried in 2024 by a true Republican.
Arrogant ass hole. I hope his constituents vote him right out at the next opportunity! Universe …keep the memory of the insults &!disrespect fresh in their minds!
I’m hoping they stay angry & never forget/forgive his arrogant disregard for their legit questions. When someone is dismissive & disrespectful to you, it tends to stay with you because now it’s personal.
This is the same energy as, “Well, there wouldn’t have been a war if Zelenskyy had just rolled over and let Putin take Ukraine. So really, when you think about it, the war is Zelenskyy’s fault!”
Dear Congress;
You WORK FOR US, not for Donald Trump. You REPRESENT US, not Trump. You swear an oath to the CONSTITUTION, not to Trump. Your focus is on bettering the lives of your CONSTITUENTS, not lining the pockets of yourselves and Trump. We the People are sick and tired of your arrogance.
But the cream comes from the money that I get from special interests after they are in office. They do not fear their constituents they fear trump and are now being backed into compliance.
When his constituents storm the nation’s Capitol and threaten him with bodily harm, attack police and build a hangman’s noose for Trump then he can compare them to J-6ers otherwise it’s just more Republican gaslighting.
Are you fucking kidding me? Expressing concerns about a leader calling himself a king, and violently storming the capital to stop a constitutionally mandated process are not the same.
I love that he compared what Trump is doing to Biden. Because we all know Biden declared himself king with an AI photo and allied with Putin while also creating enemies of most of Europe and our own neighbors *obvious sarcasm*
Thank you!
Happy to sign.
I do think phone calls and resistbot letters are more effective because they have to be tallied by our electeds.
Still: every effort matter. Thank you for circulating this
I personally would have said "your body my choice" and done something that probably would result in my being escorted out of there with an assult charge (if that was said to me). Especially if cameras were rolling. They need to do more R town halls-Let's see who they really are.
I am going to call both my senators and my congressional representative... all Republicans and ask when their next town hall meeting is. We have to all attend any of them in our areas
Damn bro, bold move. You heard the same complaining over Biden, now they’re complaining about 45…so the people who put you there are just whiners. Got it.
Did you know there is no mechanism to recall a member of Congress?! 🤬 We have to force them to quit. 🤯 WoW!
Tell the reps that they either reign in the orange god-turd, or they won’t have to worry about being primaried because constituents will just vote for the other party, who *will* do something to limit him.
Someone asked him about the SAVE Act. He doesn't believe in "forcing" vaccination but he thinks they can purge current voters and "force" proof of citizenship. How are they going to enforce this? How is he going to protect himself against the disenfranchised? Tell them not to be rude? So delusional.
We must rid this nation of Republicans, MAGA or just complicit ones. Forget a "Blue Wave". We are in dire need of a Democratic effort equal to the power and effect of when a solar storm hits Earth. Maybe more.
I know parts of Georgia can be very challenging for democrats to win, but I'm hopeful there are still some sane, moderate, reasonable republicans in the country.
Please let one of those run for the seat.
This minute? I fear you are correct unless a rich/well-funded candidate comes in on their own.
I am hoping people change their minds as they see what's happening here - or it finally sinks in when something happens to them. Some people only learn when it becomes personal.
Where people shouting to hang this Congressman, smearing feces on the walls, destroying property and beating the police with Biden flag poles at this town hall?
I was there last night, and we said exactly that as we were leaving. Didn’t see any police being tased, didn’t smear any poop, didn’t bring a gallows. I don’t see a gallows, do you see a gallows? we asked each other.
I’m so glad I went and was part of the booing and loudly disapproving crowd. It seems to have given people a little hope, and I hope he went home and cried lol
Unfortunately he's in a strong Republican district. The Georgia legislature has gerrymandered the districts to keep useless shitheads like him and Barry Loudermilk in power.
You're assuming there will be valid elections?! Or any elections? The fascists know voters will want to vote them out, but that's the thing, once you let them in it generally takes a war to get them out.
Every GOP congressperson apparently checked their brain and soul at the door of the Capital. I hope this is the end of all of their careers. #neverforget
They are all just letting their white supremacy flag fly.
Trump has emboldened Nazis, Klansmen, and White Nationalist to be out in the open with no fear of retribution.
The Center for National Policy (Heritage Foundation) is behind all of it. Watch the documentary Bad Faith. They've been playing a long game for years. They don't believe in representational democracy.
I’m just really glad that the constituents feel the outrage and dismay we are all feeling and are voicing it. This asshole is not going to be able to worm out of this, because he’s wrong and he knows it. Keep it up constituents! Let’s all let them know our righteous fury
I know the Democratic MOCs are holding town halls this week. Is there any way of tracking which of the very few and probably getting fewer (M) MOCs are doing the same? Obviously record if you are present or on the phone and share. Rather than (R), I'll be using the (M) designation.
Good for you!!! It is amazing how shameless the GOP representatives & Senators are in the face of this onslaught on our democracy. The federal workers have shown more moral courage & ethical behavior than any of them. Color me: disgusted. #Democracy #Resist
Wow, you allowed that domestic traitor to compare you with the J6 INSURRECTIONIST? I would not tolerate anyone to compare me to those traitors and I would have said to his face"u are the active INSURRECTIONIST supporting and attacking our Democracy." GUYS VOTE THAT TURD OUT!
Did he just compared his constituents in GA with the January 6th domestic terrorists who were pardoned by the 🍊🤡 "king" and beat up Capitol Police while smearing their own feces on the walls of Congress? We live in a dystopian world. My God!
Not the idealized version of Moments more like death 💀 defense of Victims Sorry but not sorry MOKES Moron Obviously knowledge empty. Most of these people couldn’t understand the concept pretty sad. Spewing lies dumb ass crap
💩
If this were in normal sane USA, that would've been career ending & he'd be booted out on his treacherous ass but because it isn't, he feels emboldened to say the most outlandish things and not fear consequences. I hope these town hallers now finally realise the GOP doesn't work for them. Never has!
His remarks are not outlandish to him. He is owned by the Council of National Policy (Heritage Foundation). They don't believe in representational democracy. The CNP will end the right to vote if they have the opportunity. They are white supremacists.
No they're not which is why the People need to contonue exerting full pressure on him until he feels completely pressured and uncomfortable in the extreme.
I know the GOP doesn't believe in representational democracy but that doesn't mean you all stop hammering it home.
He needs to be voted out of office, there is the energy, now do the work.
This so reminds me of the organized protests against Obamacare, those were arranged by the far right, this, this anger is more and it is grassroots energy, not being set up by some other organization.
I don’t see flag poles or bear spray being used against the seasoning man. Was he even there on January 6, 2021 ? I think not!
He really shouldn’t say shit about #Jan6 if he wasnt there. Pendejo güero .
These people don't care anymore about what people actually feel or think. They know as long as they follow their Grand Cheeto, they have the power and honestly have all the control. They have nearly nothing to worry about at this point and the frustration is they don't care to do anything different.
The funny thing is Biden never declared himself king & was never a tyrant. But looking back on it imagine if he used executive powers to just do whatever the fuck he wanted; no more student loans, a packed the court, & striped Elon Musk of everything he owned & threw him in in GitMo?
He would be in jail now. The court would say no immunity since they decide. The Dems in congress would rush to impeach and the Dem public would agree like they trashed him for pardoning his son and the media would call him a Hitler like dictator who failed to bring back norms who should go to jail.
That tracks for the bubble that Congressional Republicans have created for themselves: anyone objects to the Regime, is an insurrectionist, unpatriotic, leftist, or any other pejorative that they can apply.
Then they dismiss them.
Remember this at Midterms or forget at your peril.
Gerrymandering. This area is actually fully purple (well off and well educated northern ATL suburbs), but the district was redrawn in 2021 to favor Republicans.
His not scared because ELON MUSK as I type to reply to you "is actually working to rig all elections towards a republican win" this M.F. DOMESTIC TRAITOR is counting on Musk!
The swing was due to gerrymandering. We didn't change our mind about our rep. It was forced changed for us when they dragged more maga nuts into our district to steal the seat and push Rep Lucy McBath out. She went to another district so she could stay in congress, beating out another Dem!😡
People keep missing this fact. Roswell(where I lived until 2002) is the tip of the current gerrymandered district. Very similar to where I live. Was NC 14 in S. Charlotte represented by Jeff Jackson (D)with finally fair maps until they redrew lines. Now we are in NC8-Mark Harris(R). No town halls.
Same for me in Tucson. We were redistricted & now have a GOP rep. The whole thing has been engineered by the Center for National Policy (Heritage Foundation). They bought Trump during his first run for president. They bought the GOP during Obama's time. It's all in the documentary Bad Faith.
You mean the January 6th insurrectionists out to lynch our elected officials confirming the nation voting for Joe Biden as president. You got off light, Rep. McCormick, meeting your vocal and upset constituents. Come back in a few weeks and see if they greet you with more than catcalls.
The next election cannot happen soon enough. . . worried about being primaried representative? I wouldn't as I think you've just flipped this district blue at the next election.
He does not respect his constituents. Instead of listening and easing their concerns. He smugly states they shouldn't feel that way. The eye roll he gave his assistant and his arrogant lean says it all.
He's been bought by the Council of National Policy (Heritage Foundation) that's why he says those things. They don't believe in representational democracy, so his remarks are on target. They will take away all voting rights if there is opportunity to do so.
Self destruction is the GOP path
They’ve been suicidal for years
Lying to fools
Democracy is a foreign concept
~ lied taking the oath of office
~ serving plutocracy instead
~ greedy corrupt grifters
~ they’re corrupt politicians
We need integrity, not LIARS
THEY WORK FOR US
WE THE PEOPLE
One thing is for sure. Anyone who believes congress and I include democrats in this are going to reign in Trump will be sorely disappointed.
It will be down to the decent ordinary people and I am not sure there are enough at present. Easy for me to say though far away.
Call your REPS AND THE SENATE

Weird You. tube didn't want me to post this innocuous weird truth.
WE are being suppressed folks.
STOP THEM NOW
Was he trying to compliment them or insult them? LOL it's been a month. WAIT till someone loses their job or misses a check because of his bootlicking.
#gopliarsandthieves
Well, if they don't replace him with a Dem "if elections are not rigged again by Musk" and they replace him with another P.O.S. Republican "then ALL OF THEM DESERVED TO BE INSULTED AND HUMILIATED AS HE DID!"
Comments
Trump went full gloves off with hatred on Maines governor today.
It's going to get worse. He's not hiding anything anymore
There's a king in the USA
If Trump tells them to rip up the constitution, they'd ask how small the pieces should be.

He should not be surprise to see a mob passing in his garden soon
Trump's bootlickers hard at work...
He never answered the question.
They always go back to the schoolyard defense of ‘well he started it’ with no proof to back the claim.
Please watch this video. It explains everything.

Send it again via resistbot and then make it a petition so other senators can find it in their inbox
You just type in petition and follow the prompts
Happy to sign.

They sure as hell do it to their own citizens
All republicans in the house and senate are aligned with the traitorous dictator king.
Standing over or leaning towards someone is an intimidation technique.
ALL women today should be saying,
"No, I'll stand." and Don't dare end that statement with "Thank you."
Who’s his role model!
Did you know there is no mechanism to recall a member of Congress?! 🤬 We have to force them to quit. 🤯 WoW!
Special election time.
But seriously, they need to be forced out; it will just take a lot of public pressure to force them to resign.

The GOP is dead. The radical right wing MAGA party is in power
I am hoping people change their minds as they see what's happening here - or it finally sinks in when something happens to them. Some people only learn when it becomes personal.
I still feel a lot of what's behind all this anger and hate is lack of opportunity. No accounting for the ignorance.
He’s gonna lose his seat, and the Dems should be all over this right now looking for his replacement
Got to start asking people what type of American they are now.
I'm so shocked/outraged by his words that I was having trouble forming a decent response - yours is perfect!
it's only the first month
they chanted hang mike pence the vp
these people didn't say they wanted to hang anyone
this chump was confronted with reality and he didn't like it
Trump has emboldened Nazis, Klansmen, and White Nationalist to be out in the open with no fear of retribution.
While he's a Nazi who bows to a fuhrer.
“Condescending pr*ck”
Lessons in reading the room right there:
They are all so far up his (DJT) Hole.
💩
Then the comparison could be fairly made.
We can and WILL do so much better. Even if we have to start from scratch.
I know the GOP doesn't believe in representational democracy but that doesn't mean you all stop hammering it home.
I suppose he is comfortable with campaign"funding" to ignore his constituents?
A surprising level of anger in a reliably GOP stronghold.
There is hope then, that this message will get drilled home, that everyone is not happy with the idea of a King Donald.
This POS needs to be relieved of his position!
THEY WORK FOR US !
WE PAY THEIR SALARIES !

is that really 2words?

McCormick is a major deluded AHOLE
Worse than *my* Congressman Greg Stoo-gee 🤡 (Florida)
wait.. does that mean he considers them patriots? these days are tough to navigate.
He really shouldn’t say shit about #Jan6 if he wasnt there. Pendejo güero .
Then they dismiss them.
Remember this at Midterms or forget at your peril.
"I'm not going to give you my best Foghorn-Leghorn response to that"
"The funny thing is..."
This fucker is too arrogant to have a reasonable conversation, much less actually serve constituents.
This is a very winnable seat for Dems.
2025 will be the Year of the Tongue.

Okay it's a one minute video, but people were asking questions and pissed at the answer of the guy with the worse douchebag-cocky attitude ever.
What they did not do: broken-in the capitol to disrupt a democratic process then harm and kill police officers
perhaps 🤔 will help them stand up for US all & themselves instead of giving up their authority & power to president muskyrat & first lady 45.
