‘This Feels Like a Repeat’: Republicans Try To Get A Handle On Their Town Hall Problem
www.huffpost.com
Downplaying town hall rage is a storied tradition in Washington and something that has boded poorly for the party in power.

Summary

House Republicans face heated town halls as voters protest Trump and Elon Musk’s government cuts, echoing past backlashes in 2009 and 2017.

While GOP leaders downplay the outrage, some members consider avoiding town halls or controlling the format.

Activist groups like Indivisible are mobilizing, pushing Democrats to engage and staging “empty chair” events if Republicans refuse to meet voters.

Despite mixed public opinion on Musk’s reforms, GOP strategists aim to sell their policies, hoping the protests subside before the next election cycle.

    Mine will stand at his window watching people protesting him a few floors down.

    Fuck Scott Perry. What an asshole.

    And because I’m surrounded by idiots he’ll be my representative until I move.
