Wow, on a Town Hall meeting with my rep

Last edited Tue Jan 31, 2017, 08:16 PM - Edit history (1)

It's a very RED state. He called me. 3/4 of the calls are asking him how long they are going to allow Trump to keep acting like a fool.

I have NEVER heard this before and I get called often.


Edit:. Just got off and I am amazed. People voiced concerns about the EO, Spicer, Bannon, lies, alternative facts and his erratic behavior. Only two pro Trump calls out of twelve in a state he won by 60℅

You "get called". What does that mean? In person, you raised your hand and were asked a question? KittyWampus Jan 2017 #1

Meet people face to face, and announce in advance when the face to face meeting is happening. Hopefully when people who work and pay taxes can attend.

It's too hard to get on the list. They won't add people to their golden list.

Way tooo controlled. The phone in townhall meetings are bullshit.

They will tow the party line until they start to worry about their own skin. Then they will turn. However this call,( I am still on it) sounds like it's in a blue state.

And they are hammering him. The executive order and his behavior is on everyone's mind.

He is saying his office is flooded with letters and calls. Keep it up guys. The ice is cracking.

How do they ask questions?
I've heard of these and complaints those who get to speak to the Rep all seem pro GOP - like they're screened.
