"Then someone got escorted out for calling the GOP "morally bankrupt" while the crowd CHEERED him on".

Mike Lawler (R) told a room full of furious constituents “my record speaks for itself.”
The room responded with laughter. Then booing. Then someone got escorted out for calling the GOP “morally bankrupt” while the crowd CHEERED him on.👏👏

This guy could have been a 3, 4, 5 term Congressman from that district, but will face a tough battle because Trump has turned everything sour.

Toxic Trump, the Pope of Mar-a-Lago.
