As Twitchy told you, apparent Oregon congressional hopeful Mark Roberts — a self-proclaimed “independent conservative” and “disgruntled life-long Republican” — referred to Melania Trump as a “hoebag”:

Laura Ingraham was among the many people who called him out for it:
Why has @jack not taken this tweet down and suspended the account? https://t.co/NgVQLMEjDE

But Roberts isn’t just not sorry for what he said … he’s doubling down:

For the record, it looks like Twitter’s not too concerned about Roberts’ tweets:

And you know what? That’s OK. Because Roberts doesn’t need Twitter’s help to tank; he can do that all by himself.
Looks more like a countdown to your career ending

When he inevitably loses his race, his a**holery is the only thing he’ll have to fall back on.
Are you manic or something? I'm a Democrat. I'm completely appalled by your Twitter treatment of Melania Trump. Too late to take the high road.
