Chaffetz thinks over a thousand constituents who showed up last night to his town hall are not REAL.

1. Fleeing from his own townhall amidst chants of "Your Last Term" is surely surreal.

[manicraven]

2. He's in denial. It's happening all over the country, even in Spokane, WA.

We're into this less than a month and the constituents are extremely angry for several reasons.

4. Angry because...they're getting what they voted for?

Or couldn't be bothered to vote against?

No one who has voted for any Republican in the last 35 years has any right to complain, because they are part of the problem. They are getting whatvthey voted for. Same for those who have declined to vote, despite knowing what a disaster a Republican-controlled government would be.

11. Maddow reported on a small town in WI last night--300 showed up.

3. I hate to advocate lawlessness...

... but I don't think his opinion will change without eggs, tomatoes & shoes as part of the equation.

9. well, at least a soft cream pie would do the trick maybe

10. Not as easy to aim and pitch, though.

19. Toast. nt

20. That would work even if it doesn't hit the target.

5. So sure that the attendees will love hearing that.

But good that he thinks that. He's digging his political grave.

[bdamomma]

6. repigs

are in denial their party is finished thanks to 45.

[Skittles]

23. they think they can carry on with business-as-usual

as if Trump never fucking happened

7. That's Chaffetz being dismissive of the concerns of his constituents.

If anyone is angry at a town hall, they must be paid protesters and not the obedient, doormat supporters he expects.

He doesn't want to hear their concerns, he wants them to cheer his every move.

He's a coward who can't handle the job because he, obviously, does not understand that he works for the people.

8. Hey Jason--over a thousand REAL people showed up --and you left 40minutes EARLY!

[Jim Beard]

12. They must have been a figment of his imagination.

[Corgigal]

13. Just raise your voting card

Everyone, the whole time you're at these talking halls. Watch his face change, when he figures it out that his sure thing job promise, starts to fade away.

[logosoco]

14. Dumbass! They are not shutting down the democratic process...

they are actively taking part in it!!!! What they are trying shut down is corporate takeover. It is the REAL people! The corporations that what what you are selling can't show up because they are NOT REAL people! The government is of, by and for the people. REAL people.

[blogslut]

15. Nuh uh, Jeff. That's not how it works.

I told the same thing to my congresscritter's office when they tried to pull that crap. They told me he represented the majority. I told them "No. He represents all of us."

[wordpix]

16. I thought Chafing was flipping, said he would investigate KellyCon for

her Ivanka promo that "she was counseled about." My q: when and by whom were you counseled, KellyCon?

[crazycatlady]

17. I guess only real people are those who agree with him

Slimy bastard

[Binders Keepers]

18. This is not going to end well.

Repugs will show up in droves at the next town hall. So will Dem's. Most likely it will end in a riot. And Chaffetz will have been the instigator.

[Cha]

21. At his own peril

[Skittles]

22. LOL, he thinks the same old repuke con job will work

GUESS AGAIN, ASSHOLE

[Cha]

24. Remember when repub oversite commitee promised to hold President Accountable-Chaffetz
