Sen. Markwayne Mullin blamed “political correctness” for the uproar over his attempt to fight a witness during a Senate hearing.
What sort of pathetic man-child have the people of Oklahoma sent to represent them?
ha, he is exactly what he represents in the conservative party.
One named Markwayne, apparently.
They elected an MMA guy to beat up people that disagree with them.
Now that’s what I call an American Hero
Probably should have elected an MMA fighter without a ticking vascular timebomb in his head then.

“I don’t think there was a single day that we were playing sports where we didn’t drop the gloves or, you know, have a brief interlude of, you know, throwing fists and it would be all be over,” Hannity said, asking Mullin when society had become so “woke” that fist-fights are no longer an acceptable solution to conflict.
Hannity is so full of shit, trying to act tough as always. Meanwhile, he STILL hasn’t been waterboarded like he said he would.
asking Mullin when society had become so “woke” that fist-fights are no longer an acceptable solution to conflict.
For most of us that happened in elementary school.
I remember when Mancow got waterboarded on the air. He completely changed his tune and said it was cruel. Even a broken clock is right twice per day I guess.
Yep. Waterboarding isn’t torture, but please please please please don’t waterboard me!!!
But god fucking forbid Fetterman wears a fucking hoodie.
That would give him an unfair advantage in a fight!
Mullin has been going on a media tour in the wake of the near-altercation. During an interview with Sean Hannity, the Fox News host reminisced to Mullin about his rough and tumble youth. “I don’t think there was a single day that we were playing sports where we didn’t drop the gloves or, you know, have a brief interlude of, you know, throwing fists and it would be all be over,”
“Emotionally stunted manchild” would have been more succinct.
He didn’t go a day without fighting as a kid? Wtf is wrong with him. That’s psychotic. I had maybe 2 or 3 fights during my entire childhood lol. Maybe he’s just an asshole
He’s lying, and playing that “back in my day we weren’t snowflakes like those liberals are today” card that plays well with fox news audiences.
Doesn’t have to be remotely true, just has to paint a picture that confirms the bias.
Of course when push came to shove to actually confront someone to protect people he hid like a little bitch behind the chairs…
…and now he was waiting for someone to hold him back from his bravado - it ended up being Bernie who couldn’t hold back a feisty kitten if he tried.
But it’s ok this guy learned how to act tough convincingly in wrestling - so he went on the media circus.
He’s playing the terrorist support card. He’s telling his dumbass supporters it’s okay to use violence against union members. And they will do it.
The next time teamsters are striking, see if one of those dumb fucks that love this guy doesn’t try and drive their car through them or do a mass shooting or stab a five year old fifty times.
These are Republicans and as they say, “we are all domestic terrorists.”

Might makes right.
My might makes me right.
This senator would beat anyone who disagrees or is critical of him. And worse yet, he sees nothing wrong with this idea. It’s abject danger to have him be the voice of constituents, he has no desire to improve society, but to inflict his will upon it.
I’m sure he would also be the first to complain if someone stronger beat him and wanted to play by their rules, too.
But isn’t that the American way?
It sorta is, but it shouldn’t be. So it’s worth mocking and critiquing every time it rears it’s ugly head.
Republicans shitting on the floor and demanding to be praised for it. You get no praise, fools… only shame and ridicule.
Even if violence was an acceptable form of conflict resolution, if you want to have a fist fight over twitter beef do it on your own time. Not while you’re actively performing your job that we the people pay you to do.
“If only daddy didn’t hold me back!”.
Pathetic middle school snowflake.
After a quick google, It appears that after 1902 was the point where the Senate got too woke to tolerate a fist fight.
Thomas Jefferson had enough of this shit in 1801. He wrote an entire manual about it.
Why does Markwayne hate the founding fathers?
Absolutely shocking, how could any true blue blooded American let someone be so civilized?!
He loves the founding fathers. The ones Republicans have told him about that loved Jesus and hated government and all taxes.
Is this Republican really bragging about being Bernie’s bitch?

I consider myself progressive thinking, but think about some things you said… freedom of religion of all people is fine to be admired that you allow people to make choices for themselves. I think this is similar to freedom of speech. However, just as you would probably tell someone that spewing hateful racist remarks is a negative behavior and that we are equal, you sort of have to do the same with religion too. I mean, I do think it is right to allow free speech and freedom of religion, but that doesn’t mean you have to give a bigot a microphone or a church tax exemptions. Yes you can build bridges, and advocate for kindness, but if you’re too scared to say as a progressive that most organized religion is not a healthy choice, then you may as well kiss your very own existence bye. You don’t survive in the wild by treating a tiger like a cuddly cat. Also, progressives at least in my mind do not riot. The people at the BLM protests and Floyd protests vandalizing things were not progressives. Progressives are mostly peaceful and it is the forward-thinking educational mindset that will allow you to change the world, not disrupting through chaos.
I don’t care what martial arts you’re mixing up, a teamster is gonna give you trouble.
Did you see that jaw on that teamster? Markwayne has gym muscles.
“We can be two consenting adults and do it right here.”
“Get your butt up”
“I bite. And I don’t care where I bite.”
Quite the Freudian word selection.
Poor guy thinks the only way it’s socially acceptable to touch another man in public is if it’s in the context of a fist fight.
He’s itching to fight everyone because he just can’t walk down Congress’s halls without being carried away by the allure of a testifying witness or a fellow Senator.
Can’t wait for the eventual tell all from his college roommate if he continues to have any time in the spotlight.
He knows the teamsters are sexy motherfuckers and it confused him emotionally.
Republican Senator tries to fist fight a union leader is a little too on brand. Like an Onion headline.
What a weak minded pussy.
Acting like you have the intellectual capacity to negotiate the legislative process is, contrary to this Senator’s belief, not political correctness.
Political correctness, nothing. We have laws in this country against assault, you moron. Laws you should know about, considering the fact that you’re literally part of the legislative process.
Bernie Sanders was right to stop you. Hell, you should have been thrown out of the Senate entirely for your failure to act with some degree of decorum. You’re a disgrace to the government.
