What good does it do to delete what he chose to write? Everyone has seen it and I am sure people have saved it to use against him when he tries to run again. It won’t go away.
You have been way too quiet on this. Speak up, call him to task, and grow a spine while you’re at it. What have you done to track this simp done? Or his chief of staff, Wait?
Thankfully he can’t delete the character reveal those tweets constituted.
Everyone has seen exactly who he is, and will never forget it.
Not that it means anything in MAGA world.
he needs to make a public apology, pin it & do it on fox/newsmax, etc-his constituents should demand he resign now-despicable, hateful, disgusting-is he a parent?
What is @cnn.com trying for here? Kind of a run-of-the-mill controversy? NOT.
U.S. Senator. Mike Lee posted taunts and unfounded attacks after elected leaders were murdered by a maniac because of their political views. U.S. Senator Tina Smith called him out on it, appropriately.
This man is such a disgrace , he should never be in a such a public position. Being Senator use to be a position that deserves respect and more and more the GOP Senators doesn’t deserve any respect, they are just despicable human.
POS. God forbid if it had been a republican like they were trying to spin it initially. Why did law enforcement release pictures of flyers during active investigation?
The fact he didn't do it soon after talking to Sen. Smith means he had to think about whether or not to delete the posts. His ambition easily outlines his talent
It's starting to become clear that, just by simple shallow appearance, the GOP is just a giant freak show of misfits cast aside by society and now they get their vengeance on normal people by imposing legislative revenge. Nothing they do is functional, it's all about appeasing the Base.
Democratic officials are being unlawfully arrested. A Trump supporter assassinated Democratic officials. Trump has defied our courts, deported Americans, disappeared people off the streets, attacked our civil rights & slashed our services. ENOUGH! Time to act!

Cool. Now he needs to apologize and resign. Maybe with decade of therapy & reflection he’ll have a 1% chance of someday being a halfway decent human being.
Mike Lee finally removed his hateful evil posts. Since he hasn’t publicly apologized for his brutal cruelty by now, he should be thrown-out of Congress ASAP‼️
Mike Lee deleted a series of lies and reprehensible posts where he spread disinformation and mocked the shooting deaths of Minnesota state representatives. Senator Lee has yet to apologize for his posts or to set the record straight regarding his lies…fixed the article blurb for you.

Cannot delete it from his story as a Senator.
Everyone has seen exactly who he is, and will never forget it.

He is a horrible person.
I feel sorry for his entire family ….. he shames them all.
There is no room for terrorists in the Senate.
A normal person would have been horrified by what happened.
A normal person wouldn't even have thought to say what he said.
Deleting his posts won't make what he said go away.
The quality of American leadership ... no wonder there are so many awful people.
