He's certainly the type to affect them. They'd go well with the gun he cries about not being able to tote on the House floor.

I couldn't tell if those were socks or patterned uppers on brown cowboy boots. They make those, too, I live in cowboy boot country.

Whoever dressed him that morning was likely taking revenge, making him look like the goober he is.

... slapped upside the head.

The powers that be in the GOP must have totally freaked when they heard his 'orgies and coke' story.

It's a given that he could only be talking about Republicans, as NO Democrat would invite him to any such alleged goings-on.

It's obvious that the little dipshit didn't think that one through.

The GOP voter 'base' is fine with what MTG did - but they're not okay with their party leaders indulging in promiscuity and illegal drugs.

Also, any story involving SEX gets attention, while any story about boring things - like vote suppression, political corruption, campaign finance laws being broken - only gets a yawn.

As I heard on Joy Reid's show tonight, Maddy is the guy in high school who'd brag about his hot girlfriend who went to another school in another town and no one ever saw. His coke & orgy story sounds about the same - even if they are happening, no one would invite him.

who "tried to normalize him by their silence.".

I say "Exactly"..

I just read that in this article..

Cawthorn's orgy and cocaine comments come back to bite him

*snip*

I don’t care whom Cawthorn has allegedly been invited to have sex with or how many or how old they are. And to reiterate: He’s one of the least reliable sources imaginable. But I’m shedding no tears whatsoever that the party that welcomed him into the fold (political party — not sex party) is having to deal with the consequences of giving him a platform.

Then was kicked out by McCarthy before the swelling went down. He is already kind of ruddy, which would make crying worse.

And, we all know he may have exaggerated some because he is a fucking narcissist, but I firmly believe he was at some sketchy AF GOP underground thing.
