Josh Hawley Needs to Learn a Thing or Two About 'Manhood'

In his time as attorney general of Missouri, Hawley opposed workers receiving overtime pay—we’re talking about laborers, manufacturers, and other working-class jobs, many of which are filled by men. Thanks to Hawley’s efforts, over 230,000 working Missourians lost overtime protections. As if pay weren’t enough, he also went after benefits, using his position to try and strip away health care from working-class Missourians through his lawsuit against the Affordable Care Act.

When the opportunity to make a historic investment in American manufacturing and jobs came—the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law—Hawley said no. When the opportunity came, again, to make a historic investment in American manufacturing and jobs, this time oriented to out-competing China, Hawley again said no. This is despite his tough-on-China talk, which so far has manifested as a petulant lone “no” vote against admitting Finland and Sweden to NATO (he thinks the war in Ukraine is a distraction), because apparently Hawley can’t comprehend that standing strong with Europe against Vladimir Putin is part and parcel of beating out Putin’s no-limits friend, Xi Jinping.

You can’t be serious about the challenges confronting America’s men while kneecapping them every chance you get. Barking orders at men at the latest manhood summit isn’t a serious solution. Real leaders don’t tell people what to do, anyway.

Of course, I can only give you a few paragraphs of this Op-Ed. I hope what I posted sparks your curiosity. I think it's worth a read. The authors make terrific points.

1. Maybe joshie boy had an accident while mowing the yard and suffered an injury in his private parts,

which is why he's so obsessed w/ his manhood.

2. "Hawley opposed workers receiving overtime pay"

And yet, those same people will vote for him so they can "own the libs" or because he has an R behind his name.

5. While, I'm sure a little of that is involved...

I do think that some people still hold faith in "trickle-down," despite the fact that nothing ever does.

The tax cuts that the GOP promises--and often provide--don't apply to most of the people who vote for GOPers. Yet somehow the voters believe that they do, or that someday they will (because of the elusive "trickle-down" )

Investments that strengthen the workforce are good for the economy, good for families, and good for communities. GOPers call that stuff "socialism," and they get away with that label.

3. Did he have a mean mommy or mean lady teacher when he was young

This empty headed doofus is nothing but a huge joke.

4. A RWer telling us about "manhood"............

where most need a gun to prove how manly they are.

[MissMillie]

6. ++++

But not just the guns... they need "control."

Control freaks are often disappointed, because eventually they all learn that they can't control everything.

7. Absolutely. This man child is just a MAGAt drumming up publicity to bolster his MAGAt credentials

and keep him in Congress where he can manipulate the system for his own benefit.

8. He's hyping a book

Imagine... buying a book to confirm your "manhood" from Josh Hawley.


Who ever does that needs more help than a book.

10. Sad.

9. does anyone have that video of him sprinting out of the capitol during the riots...he couldn't get

out of there fast enough! Morning Joe Scar loved replaying that. It gave me a very satisfying laugh!
