WTAF is the thought process here? Fight the witness. Hmmmmm
Cocaine is a powerful drug
Steroids and trt more likely.
Sorry but Urban Dictionary has no relevant entries for TRT
testosterone replacement therapy
So…gender-affirming hormone therapy?
They’ve both talked about having a mutual fight before, so this really isn’t anything new, this time it was just in person.
The incident ended with them agreeing to go get coffee together.
You’re giving the senator way too much credit. After Sanders got the Senator to sit his crybaby ass back down and act like an adult, the Teamster rep quipped that his idea of “settling this” would be discussing it over coffee like adults. The Senator then responded - flustered - that he’d do that, in an attempt to save face after having embarrassed himself. The teamster, sitting calmly and still smiling, said, “Yeah, sure, ok. Let’s grab coffee and discuss this,” is the most drippingly sarcastic tone ever uttered by man and still smiling, because he knew he won and made Senator Chucklefuck look like a total nutjob— who responded, btw, with, “Yeah, yeah… coffee.”
Senator Markwayne Gacy isn’t having coffee with anyone.
Meh, I thought the teamster guy came off as a scrub. Telling him to stand up and whatnot, then saying “wait, you want to fight?” in a fake-surprised voice.
He was winding up a prize d-bag, yes. But he was still being a punkass about it.
He’s a union guy through and through. I’m sure he’s seen worse at local teamster meetings
The Teamster dude was shit-talking the Senator the whole time. Of course he wasn’t going to fight him— it’s a Senate hearing, not a schoolyard, and they’re not children. Everyone (but Senator Jimbob, it seems) could hear how sarcastic he was being. (Edit: watch the video— it’s hilarious how he baits the Senator into his tantrum, but Bernie comes out as the real star just for acting like the grown-up in the room).
The Teamster guy baited the Senator into publicly embarrassing himself, and it worked. That’s why that Teamster dude was just sitting there and smiling the whole time; he was just egging that dickbag Senator on, and he kept falling for it until Sanders shut him down.
