  1. Cotton turned in to Senator Joseph McCarthy! Disgusting

  2. Mc Carthyism. It’s back and dumber than ever!! The GOP, what a crew.

  3. It’s McCarthyism all over again also senator where is your suite from Oh…my CHINA?

  4. They talk like if they don't control all other social medias and push the most dirtiest hateful agendas through these social medias and if anyone else had another opnion directly banned or prevent it from reaching ppl

  5. They should of banned tiktok when trump wanted to ban it but the cry baby libs wanted it

  6. He doesn’t know where Singapore is😢

  7. Evidently, some morons are also senators.

  8. Should have just asked what kinda chinese he is

  9. Tom:Last question !Where is Singapore in China?

  10. He talkth and shineth, good at catching comminists fur us

  11. Now we know why China has always been deliberately portraited in certain way by the West, in particular America which never misses any opportunity to ask leading questions and draw conclusinve arguments based on ……….well, guess and assumption!

  12. So it's not racist to link East Asians with being Chinese and CCP, but it is to link Jews with Israel and their actions.

  13. As a Singaporean I suspect that Chew has very close links to the CCP, as do many Singaporean politicians and businessmen

  14. If he wants this Singaporean to be Chinese, then Singapore and China should merge together in one country

  15. Singapore or China is the same for average American

  16. A senator! How embarrassing!

  17. Racist can’t help to be racist, I am pretty sure this assho wouldn’t ask the same question is that guy was none Asian

  18. Is that SNL?!😂😅😂😂😅😂

  19. How dumb can you get?? His race is Chinese does that means he's from china.

  20. Are you Chinese or Japanese?

  21. This is a senator of America 😅😅😅 what a shame.

  22. Cotton could have looked him up on Wikipedia and saved himself from so much embarrassment. 😅

  23. This guy is embarrassing to America

  24. Open racism. China may control TikTok, but this is not a good example for an elected official to handle the situation like this.

  25. Tom Cotton do not know th difference between Singapore and China

  26. Are you from the mayflower and steal Spanish land grant's! Land!
