Opinion | Josh Hawley is an opportunist
A few short seconds during the Jan. 6 hearing accomplished what Hawley's political adversaries have been unable to do since he showed up in Washington: prove he’s a phony.
Washington is full of tough people. Currently, there are 91 members of Congress with military experience. Moreover, there are several former first responders: two former sheriffs, one police chief, three other police officers, one former fire chief and a former firefighter. There are also two ex-CIA employees and one FBI agent.
Republican Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri isn’t one of Washington’s tough guys, but he’s certainly tried to fashion himself as one.
But during Thursday’s prime-time Jan. 6 hearing, the House select committee investigating the Capitol riot showed the world that Hawley was a national coward when it introduced footage of the senator taken during the Jan. 6 attack.
How much of a loser you gotta be yourself to worship these losers......
