A town hall hosted by Rep. Byron Donalds turned chaotic Tuesday, with audience members repeatedly interrupting the Florida Republican, leading authorities to remove two people — the latest raucous town hall dominated by protests against President Trump’s administration.
Donalds, a three-term congressman running in next year’s Florida gubernatorial race, was asked a litany of often-testy questions, several of which focused on billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. Audience members booed or cheered — and, in some cases, angrily left early — throughout the almost two-hour event at Estero High School in southwest Florida. Donalds occasionally verbally sparred with the protesters.
Nothing says free speech absolutists like having to put your constituents in a chokehold during a public forum.
I don’t know about you guys but every leadership position I’ve had, I’ve always invoked wrestling moves to subdue dissent instead of listening to those I was supposed to serve.
I can’t wait to hear this guy hawking boner pills on Infowars in a few years.
