Is this guy kidding me? What member of CONgress does NOT trade on insider info? Even though there is now a law called the stock act of 2012 that makes it illegal for CONgress, almost all of them blatantly do it especially Pelosi.

The more relevant question is, is Cawthorn a conservative?

There is doubt.

All Cawthorn has to do is say ‘Pelosi’.

Cawthorn’s district primary is May 17th. The local Gannet news rags in his district are printing everything to can to see Cawthorn defeated by State Senator Chuck Edwards.

Tillis carrying water for the Democrats.

Proving once again that RINOs fight harder against conservatives than they would ever do against Democrats.

"The more relevant question is, is Cawthorn a conservative? There is doubt."

The media, Democrats, and even so-called Republicans are throwing everything they can at Cawthorn, to see if anything will stick...exactly what they did, and are still doing with Donald Trump.

They are seriously afraid of Cawthorn, IMHO.

Conservatives have to learn the principle of avoiding even the appearance of evil.
