Related: About this forumCawthorn: Reports of my sexual misconduct are just about 'attacking a Republican'

The Republican congressman's defensive posturing doesn't make a lot of sense.
Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) claimed on Tuesday that recent reporting on sexual harassment and misconduct allegations against are really about the media and Democrats wanting to deflect from sexual harassment allegations against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
Buzzfeed News recently reported that they spoke to more than two dozen witnesses who "described or corroborated instances of sexual harassment and misconduct on campus, in Cawthorns car, and at his house near campus" when Cawthorn was a student at Patrick Henry College in Virginia. Cawthorn has denied the allegations against him.
Appearing on the conservative Newsmax TV, Cawthorn replied "absolutely" when host Chris Salcedo asked if the story has surfaced to try to "give cover" to Cuomo, a Democrat.

(2,636 posts)25 women from Patrick Henry College, where he spent all of one semester. He's that skeevy. Homeschooled. Hasn't paid taxes on his home in the county he lives in. Lies about everything.
Encourages people to "lightly threaten" their representatives.
He's a christo fascist sexist empty suit.

(2,636 posts)Chuck Edwards and Mark Meadows control that part of Western North Carolina--they picked him and groomed him. He's a good looking face (until you learn anything about him) who's got a teflon wheelchair. He appeals to the WNC locals: home schooled, then nominated the the Naval Academy. ALways a big deal. He admits he was rejected before his accident, but you have to dig. He certainly wants people to think his accident curtailed a brialliant (pffft) military career.
One of his publicity stills shows him in his chair, with a high powered rifle over his shoulder, in a wooded clearing. Like he's rollin gout to hunt water buffalo. He bragged about being armed on Insurrrection day, like he was going to roll up and blow the bad guys away.
Visiting Hitler's Eagle's Nest vacation home was a bucket list highlight for this child. His company is PSQR, some obscure reference to Roman Centurions coopted by teh WHite supremacists.
Oddly, the former guy backed his opponent in the republic an primary, some right wing woman. He an dJr. seem lik ebuddies, based on Jr's appearances here at the local look out vineyards and meadery.
He's angered his handlers, though. Edwards has come out against him, as has the Hendo county sheriff. I'm trolling his twitter, and emailing his offices regularly.
He'l be out in 2022, if not sooner.
