Madison Cawthorne is confused, but then again, so is the entire Republican party base. Indeed, as we’ll see from the tweets, Madison Cawthorne is the base, he symbolizes the base, this is where they are.

At an appearance in God only knows where, somewhere in North Carolina (a state far too beautiful to have someone like Madison Cawthorne representing it), Cawthorne tells the crowd that anyone who says that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, “I guarantee they are lying to you. We are going to audit all 50 states.”

Interesting because every audit which we’ve seen so far has shown that they over counted votes for Trump, by a tiny tiny amount, two to three votes, so very accurate elections, but over-counted Trump’s vote anyway. Perhaps they’re just selecting the wrong urban areas of Arizona, or Idaho (two states we know that have had audits.)

This is far less about audits than it is about never allowing a democrat to have a legitimate win ever again. It is part of the authoritarian cookbook. Meanwhile, a Republican pulled off an upset for the governor of Virginia and no one claimed it was rigged.

Cawthorne also promised that if they win the majority, they are going to charge Dr. Fauci. He left out a couple of key components that we’d like to know. First of all, with which crime do they plan on charging Fauci? Second, exactly how are they going to do that as the House of Representatives? This site honestly believes he thinks that they can do it.

After all, he’s just seen the Democrats charge Bannon and Meadows with crimes! This is not true, of course, those contempt charges were referred to DOJ, DOJ is the department that charges crimes.

Anyway, here is Madison, explaining exactly what they plan to do with their majority:

Yes, he’s ignorant. And yes, he’s a fraud. But he’s exactly where the GOP base is. I hear from the base every day. This is the base talking.👇 https://t.co/jNqtFER9at

And some comments:

And that means there is no point in engaging with the GOP base, because they've lost their minds. This isn't about deficits or CRT or religious freedom or anything but boredom and personal grievance. All you can do is outvote them. It's just a matter of which coalition shows up. https://t.co/jx7CM0OdgN
