        tbh "Why is my opponent at her job instead of on the campaign trail" is an extremely glass houses sort of attack from Hawley...

        This reminds me of the "Why wasn't Hillary in New York on 9/11?" talking point from '16. Uh, she was a senator at the time.

        You see Josh is used to not doing his job, just campaigning for something else while in office. Not sure he gets the concept of work.

        Why should Hawley live in Jefferson City just because state law requires him to do so? https://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article184713783.html …

        The Senate was called into session precisely so that she and other Democrats would have to be in DC rather than campaign in their home states, wasn't it?

        @AGJoshHawley ran as an outsider. Let’s keep him that way. He clearly places ambition above responsibility. Not why @clairecmc is in DC doing her job-why isn’t he in Jeff City (does he live there btw?) doing his job?

        What is it about conservative men begging Democratic women to talk to them? Then again, at least this guy is someone running for her Senate seat and not some attention-seeking rando.
