Unfortunately the kid seems to have some serious personal issues.
He is still young and plenty of time to get his life back on track.
Sorry, not sorry. His shenanigans were (and would have) reflected badly on Republicans far beyond North Carolina.
That last video of him was particularly disturbing.
Thank God for that... Cawthorn was a disaster.

Glad he is gone..if he wasn’t in a wheelchair I would use a certain saying..but I will just go with..his train ran off the track.
The margin of victory of Edwards over Cawthorne appears to be less than 1400 votes. In the 11th District Democrat primary the winner’s margin was nearly 20,000 votes. North Carolina allows unaffiliated voters (independents) to choose a Democrat or Republican ballot when voting in a primary election. It is conceivable unaffiliated voters, voting the Republican ballot, provided the margin of victory for Edwards.
Cawthorne’s erratic behavior was becoming embarrassing to many conservative voters and was not helpful to the conservative brand or the Republican brand. To win an ideological war, the soldiers in the fight need to be disciplined, rational, and professional if they are to influence people to be persuasive. Cawthorne’s behavior had become a liability and the people chose to dump him at the ballot box.
What ticked me off in the NC primary ballot was the incumbent was not identified.
How will Edwards fare in the general election? Where does he stand on the issues??? I’m just an outsider looking in.
Any chance Cawthorn runs independent/third party?
I think that needs to be done in places to end the RINO’s rule in the party. It’s time to clean house.
No loss. Solid red seat with plenty of conservatives to replace him,
No surprise there. He seemed immature to be a US rep.
Once videos of his activities came out I figured he was done, and that not even a Trump endorsement would save him. You can bet that McConnell was the one behind the release of the videos.
I don’t know anything about Edwards. He must not be any good if he’s supported by McConnell. Is he going to be just another Crenshaw (eyepatch McCain)?
