GZP reaction to Mike Rogers' lunge at Gaetz (tweets)




Tim Burchett, who was in between Matt Gaetz and Mike Rogers during their confrontation on the House floor, tells me Rogers was making threats about ending careers.

“People shouldn’t be drinking, especially when you’re a redneck, on the House floor,” Burchett said.

(end snip)

Sounds reasonable, right? Wrong.




“I would drop him like a bag of dirt,” Burchett said of Rogers. “Nobody's gonna put their hands on me. Nobody's gonna threaten me."

(end snip)

Now, that's more like the GZP we know. Fight violence with violence.

Rogers, btw, is the new chair of the GZP House Armed Services Committee.




What a flattering first photo, n'est-ce pas?

I fail to see a lunge. Instead I see Rogers talking to Gaetz and being silenced from behind.
