Powerful! Here's the video: "Jim Jordan called me crying"

@TheTNHoller
WATCH: “Jim Jordan called me, begging me to change my story. To go against my brother. I had to get my lawyer to tell him to stop. That’s the kind of cover up it is. He’s a coward.”

Trumpist Rep. @Jim_Jordan won’t outwrestle the sex abuse scandal demons.

UPDATE:
Rep. Jim Jordan was in the room for this sexual harassment hearing but has since left. Jordan is facing allegations that he covered up reports of sexual harassment when he was a wrestling coach at Ohio State.

I'm sure that gym Jordan is going to try and tarnish the reputation of the witness some, but that'll backfire, and show even further what a scumbag Jordan truly is.

His overblown bravado for the cameras is nothing but an act. The testimony here strips away any pretension of what Jordan is all about.

spoken by RUMP and his minions like jordan, everyone speaking against them is a liar. Reconciliation of the parties is a PIPEDREAM - it’s not going to happen no matter how loud you sing kumbaya.

So when people wonder, why don't they do anything to stop the atrocities? Remember, this is who they are.

We should call sodomy in the locker room the "Dennis Hastert". Bring down all the creeps and their formerly good names.

He should have kept leaning and not schtupping his teen boy athletes all those years.

Yes, hell did welcome former Speaker of the House Hastert after he served his sentence.

No empathy or respect. No compassion. Just a tool to get their rocks off and make the other person suffer.

if Jordan was more deeply involved, discovery will bring that out, maybe that is why he wants this situation to go away.

Just wondering.

(Not really. I doubt we'll see anything like this on the nightly news.)

I'm ashamed that the state of Ohio has this criminal for a rep.

All bullies are actually cowards, just like drumpf and gymjordan. He knows he's weak as a newborn kitten, sick, drug addicted, failing mind (never good to begin with), failing body so he pretends to be the opposite - a strong man. Strong people don't have to put other people down, they don't need people to be weak for them to be strong. Traitor tot is too stupid to know that, as are most repugs.

Usually you can't get Rep. Jordan to shut up, much as you'd want him to. But in this instance, he's had a case of lockjaw. Let's see, a loudmouth when he doesn't know what he's talking about, but silent as the grave on a matter on which he has personal knowledge. Curious.
