Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley has been captured on camera waving at booing demonstrators who were chanting, “Stand up against Trump”, and repeatedly yelling, “F— you!” Outside of his town hall event.
Social media footage showed a 91-year-old Republican grinning as he waved his arms and waded into a hostile group that had gathered on Friday outside the Franklin County Courthouse, Hampton.
Stand up to Trump!” “Stand up to Trump!” The crowd chanted “Stand up to Trump!” as Grassley left the building after the event. He was flanked on either side by two men, who looked like security personnel.
An irate woman could then be heard yelling “traitor!” and “f— you!” over and over toward Grassley, who at one point gives a double thumbs up in response to the reaction.
Grassley stepped out of the vehicle, as the crowd continued booing and jeering him.
Radio Iowa reports that more than 100 people attended this town hall, where Grassley answered questions about tariffs, annexing Canada, and the future Social Security program and federal programs.
The outlet quoted him as saying, “Well, you can make the conclusion that I won by landslides but not by 100 percent of votes. So having people disagreeing with you is the essence of democracy.”
This incident occurred after other protests in Republican Town Hall events, including one two weeks earlier, when a man, who claimed to be a veteran, stood up and began shouting at Rep. Chuck Edwards. He yelled, “You don’t give a f*** about me!”
I just saw our great Republican congressman, CHUCK Edwards, from North Carolina, hold a Town Hall meeting in Asheville. The room was “littered” with Radical Left Lunatics (mostly Democrats) and they didn’t do anything but scream and shout, using filthy words,” wrote President Donald Trump on Truth Social yesterday. They were mostly paid agitators with fake slogans and signs, who were there only to cause trouble! Chuck was wonderful in putting up with all of it.
