Lisa Desjardins:
A few things.
First of all, we’re seeing that, even in deep red districts, opponents of President Trump are showing up in significant numbers and increasingly they are more vocal and in a few instances more aggressive in how they’re being vocal.
At one point, one example, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, she had a town hall last week. Now, it’s important to note, her staff checked constituents at the door to make sure that they lived in that district. But even so, we saw really fiery dissent in that town hall.
You see it right here. Even before it started, shouting protesters were removed by force and two of them Tased by police officers, again, before this began. All in all, three people were arrested, some six escorted out.
Now, Marjorie Taylor Greene actually used that as something of a springboard in the town hall.
