Crowd At GOPer's Town Hall: Investigate Trump Like You Investigated Benghazi

Constituents at Rep. Steve Womack's (R-AR) town hall on Tuesday pressed the congressman to investigate President Donald Trump's administration the same way elected Republicans investigated the 2012 Benghazi attack.

"You guys just want to investigate everybody. Well, some—" Womack began, as the crowd erupted in jeers.


"What about Benghazi?" one audience member shouted.

"You guys wasted a lot of money on Benghazi, waste a little on Trump!" another added.

House Republicans have been reluctant to probe Trump's potential conflicts of interest, on the other hand. Before Trump's inauguration, House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) said that he would not go on a "fishing expedition" into Trump's business dealings.

"I'm not going to go on this fishing expedition that they want me to, that the Democrats want me to," he said. "We'll see how that rolls out."

Republican lawmakers home in their districts for the week during Congress' recess faced large crowds at town halls on Tuesday. Constituents and protesters gathered at public events and outside local appearances by members of Congress.

1. Mark My Words: The main reason Rep. Chickenshit Chaffetz doesn't want a Rump*...

..."fishing expedition," is because HE'S AFRAID HE'S ONE OF THE FISH THAT COULD BE CAUGHT!

If someone competent and capable --AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATOR-- finds concrete and verifiable evidence to support the Rump*/Russia/Putin connection, then the next questions would be: who else is complicit in this affair? Who knew what, and when did they know it? Who helped cover up this affair? Why was there no previous investigation?

2. These assholes are crying about being yelled at and "bullied"

It's about time their constituents yelled at them!!
