North Carolina House Rep Madison Cawthorn announced he is supporting Trump by contesting the presidential election results. Cawthorn says he will fund primary opponents against GOP Reps who don’t speak out against voter fraud. It’s time to drain the swamp for good!
New GOP Rep is backing President Trump
Incoming Republican North Carolina Representative Madison Cawthorn spoke at a Turning Point USA conference Monday and said that he will contest the election and fund primary opponents against GOP members not publicly urging “for fair, free and just elections.”
Cawthorn said “the Constitution says that state legislators are the only body that can change election law within their own states.” He said numerous governors and state secretaries in swing states have violated the law, which makes the election outcome illegitimate. “And so because of that, on Jan 6 as the people of western North Carolina sent me to Washington to do a job, I will be contesting the election,” Cawthorn said.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell advised GOP senators not to contest the outcomes of the election on Jan. 6 in a private phone call with the caucus. Senate Majority Whip John Thune and Republican Missouri Senator Roy Blunt reiterated McConnell’s thoughts.
Not doing this to help my career in Washington, in fact this will most likely harm it. But no one should go to Washington as a career. Go there to serve the people. And on behalf of the people I am contesting this election based on constitutional violations by key states. pic.twitter.com/puDmUZAbaw

Drain the RINOs from the swamp
Madison gave a passionate pro Trump speech then joined the audience in chanting USA. “If you are not on the record calling for fair, free and just elections now and in the future, I will come to your district and I will fund a primary opponent against you,” Cawthorn said.
At 25-years-old, Cawthorn is the minimum age to serve in the House, making him the youngest Congressman to serve in decades. He will replace former North Carolina Congressman Mark Meadows, who resigned in order to serve as President Trump’s chief of staff. Cawthorn told the Turning Point USA audience that serving in D.C. was a mission rather than a career.
“For way too long the Republican party has just been the party of no that has always conceded things. They have let God out of our schools, they have let socialism creep into our country. I’m telling you when I look out into this crowd, I see the new Republican Party.”
