What HAPPENED to Dan Crenshaw? No, seriously. Usually, when we’ve written about Dan it’s because he’s triggered some frothy-mouthed Democrat but now … now we’re writing about him calling fellow Republicans ‘terrorists’ and ‘enemies.’
And all because they don’t want to vote for McCarthy for Speaker?
C’mon, man.
Whether or not you agree with McCarthy as Speaker, calling members of your own party ‘terrorists’ is really low and small – something we’d expect from The Squad, not a Republican and especially not a Republican like Dan Crenshaw.
Tucker Carlson was far more honest and brutal. Watch:

Dan just doesn’t get it … he tweeted this out as well:
Right now a handful of Republicans are holding us hostage from completing our mission: serving our country. Let’s hope that changes soon and we can start taking the fight to the Democrats, where it belongs. pic.twitter.com/1BzpxufRjE

If you say a policymaker is ‘holding something hostage’ because they disagree with a vote you’re implying that all procedures and all policies are a ‘given’ regardless of what said policymaker and their constituents want. That’s not how this is supposed to work. Just sayin’.

We are a REPUBLIC for a reason.
Oh, and it sounds like Dan is none too happy with Tucker for calling him out.
Unclutch your pearls. It’s a figure of speech. You can’t insult, slander, and hold everyone hostage with no way out – and not expect me to punch back.
Grow thicker skin. https://t.co/gmwDmfCney

A ‘figure of speech’. REALLY DAN?
No.
It’s a lazy, nasty, ugly insult the Left uses when they want to vilify and objectify the Right.
Way to go.
It's a pejorative, Daniel. And a disgusting one. And unless you can cite an instance where you ever referred to obstructionist Democrats in Congress with the same kind of language, please spare us the lecture about growing thicker skin.

Have you ever called a Democrat a terrorist, you corrupt hack?

You are a United States Congressman. You absolutely deserve criticism for calling your rightfully concerned peers “terrorists” and “enemies” for trying to prevent more of the same.
Cringeshaw, indeed!

You can’t expect to call 20 members of your own party “terrorists” for exercising their right to vote for leadership and not expect Tucker to punch back.
Grow thicker skin. Or maybe just stop being a jackass.

That could work.
You're an arrogant joke.

LOL "Hostage". Nothing's being held hostage.
What's the case for giving the job to McCarthy? Do you have anything other than the Hillary Clinton-esque "It's his turn!" line?

Yes, everyone else MADE YOU act like a petulant little child by not doing exactly what you want. Grow up, remember why people know who you are in the first place, and start acting like an adult again.

I thought John McCain would never be surpassed in terms of traitorous lunatic behavior but you're giving him a run for the (🇺🇦) money
Looking forward to your inevitable CNN contributorship where you passionately argue for every war and we all don't watch or care

When someone shows you who they REALLY ARE, believe them.
