House Republican's Trump Talk Gets Not-So-Beautiful Response In Wild Town Hall Scene
HuffPost
Rep. Ashley Hinson's defense of the president was just the latest instance of GOP lawmakers being shouted down by their constituents.
Rep. Ashley Hinson’s praise of President Donald Trump and his “big, beautiful bill” didn’t hold up on Wednesday as constituents hit back with jeers, boos and laughter during a town hall event in Decorah, Iowa.
“The president is, I believe, fighting for you and fighting for me —,” said Hinson (R-Iowa), just minutes into her prepared remarks at the event.
“No!” the crowd resoundingly shot back.
Elsewhere in her remarks, Hinson got a sour reaction when she name-dropped Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds (R), and she got jeered when she described “all of the damage done” from Joe Biden’s presidency before touting what she described as Trump’s “accomplishments.”
“I was also proud to vote for President Trump’s ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill’ last week,” she said of legislation that could slash $1 trillion in health and food assistance programs to pay for about $4 trillion in tax cuts to mostly high earners.
