          That guy also had a group of silent protestors forcibly removed from a public meeting, promoted an accused child molester to chair an ed subcommittee, and ran digital attack ads against the survivors who spoke out. Did we get that all right, @GlenCasada?

          I called @GlenCasada and explained that a good Christian man would admit his sins, resign, and move on from holding any office.

          This is gross, and we in TN are appalled to be represented by these clowns. They are surprisingly unconcerned with what we pleebs think on this or any other issue.

          Not surprising this is the same legislature obsessed with abortion and making voting even harder and won’t expand Medicaid- and we just elected a theocrat for governor who will sign any horrible pos legislation they draft

          It really has just come to the point of “they don’t care”. We went from political correctness to rudeness, racism and debauchery in the span of 2 years. Hmmm... wonder why?

          He'll just claim that he's turned his life around. And if the Lord has forgiven him, who are we to judge him.

          People in a CULT are AFRAID to speak out. A few years ago, if a Republican politician joked with staff about having sex with an intern, and using cocaine in the office, they would have been condemned - by Republicans. Now, Republican politicians in #TNleg+ are as quiet as mice.
