  1. Those Republicans lives in Glass House and they are the first to throw the Stone. They should clean their house first before going after people. Republicans sell their Souls to the Devil, they have no shame, they are power hungry Demons

  2. He’s only a small part of the GOP problem. Only a complete sinking of the national GOP ship will send the message that the way they do business needs to change. They are so out of touch with America and the needs of the people it isn’t even funny anymore. They somehow removed the word bipartisan from the dictionary, good luck America.

  3. Grifting Obfuscating Perverts

  4. This dude thought the college interns wanted to bang him. HAAHHAAAHAHAAHAAAAHHAA.

  5. The NRA gun lobby… "over all else"

  6. Like him Trump should go away

  7. Just one of numerous lowlife Self righteous GOP (Grand Old Perverts) in this legislature

  8. I guess they won't have to see his smug face anymore.

  9. LOL the idea that they kept him and said nothing!

  10. He obviously felt like he was Donald Trump, you know the "grab them by the 😺" man. I mean, the GOP defended Trump, why not this guy? Trump only had like 40 allegations, this guy is at two……..

  11. Many of yall are missing the point, the GOP knew about this. All those Republicans who voted the two BLACK members out, knew about their WHITE counterpart actions. Matter of fact, there's a couple more TN Republicans that has a checkered past and was never expelled. And this guy only resigned after having backdoor conversations because they know the country/media is looking at them from this day forward to see how the double standard is when Republicans actually do crime and still remain in the house. I ganurtee this guy would have stayed seated, and his white counterparts would have stayed quiet and turned a blind eye if the media than bring it to light.

  12. GOP has a new party name. Garbage Mouth Party (GMP).

  13. Good riddance – now do the one that assaulted Jones on the house floor.

  14. So, Sexton says the VICTIM is the THIRD person They Talk to. Great way to skew the judgment, such as it was. Now, the dye bomb exploded in the Speakers face. Superb, Schadenfreude, Tennessee Tyrant-Style!

  15. I truly believe that men do not understand harassment even more so when they are male Reps, they have in their head…She wants me.

  16. He looks like a human pug dog, only maybe not as smart or charming. πŸ˜‚

  17. HUGE VICTORY FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP !!

  18. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰ πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  19. Tennessee GOP lawmaker resigns after ethics violation!!! SHOCKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  20. If this isn't karma I don't know what is. 🀣🀣🀣🀣🀣
