ABC: Marjorie Taylor Greene has voiced support for executing Nancy Pelosi. Is she fit to serve?

GOV. ASA HUTCHINSON: I'm not gonna answer that question as to whether she's fit to serve, because she believes in something that everybody else does not accept.

1. Could he be any more smarmy?

3. No. I don't understand why he has been everywhere lately.

He is like: "Asa, is it dark outside?", Asa says "what do you want me to say?"

13. Hutchinson is softly running for President. n/t

2. Very open-minded of you, Asa

How would you feel if a member of Congress voiced support for executing you without charge or trial? Is that just another idea in the marketplace that needs room to be discussed even if everybody else does not accept it?

5. Good point.

These people all think that they are more deserving than everyone else in the world. Contrary to what Mrs. Greene claims, it is she and her cohorts who think they are better than other people.

4. A little bit different, give me a break

Promoting assassination of a political rival, is a little bit different

The media needs to start channeling Walter Cronkite and not let these people get away with this nonsense.

6. A little bit different ?

Killing the Speaker is an idea that is just a little bit different????

7. I'm not going to say serial killing is wrong because the serial killer was elected by the people

of his district and that means a lot. I reject it but I don't think we should punish him from a party standpoint because he thinks something different.

8. I hope her very next question was about Cheney?

9. So what if we support the same for Hutchinson or Greene?

Bet their tune changes REAL fast.

10. I think plurality voting with two parties selects for gutlessness under some circumstances.

We really need ranked choice voting. Otherwise, we do get this situation where a lunatic fringe can take the majority of a given party hostage. Asa and his ilk have been kidnapped by the Republican Manson Family headed by a orange Charlie. Asa's even showing signs of Stockholm Syndrome.

11. A little bit different....WTF

12. Sounds like chickenshittedness to me.
