Good grief, who is the guy passing the flags out?
I’m burning over what Bernie is saying about the agitators at the Rs townhall meetings.
He is misleading and saying they are disgruntled Rs and the congress critters need to stop whining.
The Dems are TRYING to replicate the tea party HOWEVER they are SO STUPID, WE went to OUR OWN town halls NOT the Dem town halls!!! These people are IDIOTS!!! We were BEGGING our own reps to STOP this DAMNED BILL!!!

I didn’t hear Bernie, but I’ve heard on F&F and perhaps FBN and other Fox programs that many at these meetings were paid protestors. Maybe the Reps need to have people entering the meetings show their Driver’s License and make sure they reside in one of the zip codes that the Rep represents, if not they can’t enter (heard a lot of the jerks were being bussed in). That might not help in districts that were or were not close in supporting Trump, but it might help. Fox had the sign that was posted outside McConnell’s townhall and I don’t recall the 3 or 4 points on it, but it made sense. Perhaps another option is that folks need to get tickets for townhalls (like Trump rallies). I thought about us going to Dim townhalls, but I’m afraid there would be a whole lot more of them than us. Oh, one other thing, Pubbies need to check out Michael Moore’s online calendar for Pubbie events and show up (even though we won’t get paid like the Dims do).
