As previously reported, North Carolina Rep. Madison Cawthorn, 26, lost his GOP primary race on Tuesday.

When his defeat became apparent, in a show of magnanimity, Cawthorn congratulated his victorious opponent, State Senator Chuck Edwards, and encouraged Republicans to rally behind him.
It seems that magnanimity did not last long.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Cawthorn, whose one-term career as a representative was marked by controversy and scandal, was back on social media yesterday.
First, he posted a cryptic message stating: “The best is yet to come.”
The best is yet to come.
— Madison Cawthorn (@CawthornforNC) May 19, 2022
He followed this with a lengthy message thanking fellow far-right lawmakers and other so-called patriots who had supported him, even “when it was not politically profitable.” An accompanying image of names included Tucker Carlson, Steven Bannon, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, President Donald Trump, Rand Paul, Charlie Kirk, and the NRA, among others.
“These are honorable men and women who are the type of friends anyone yearns to have,” Cawthorn claimed.
“There are other National figures who I believe are patriots, but I am on a mission now to expose those who say and promise one thing yet legislate and work towards another, self-profiteering, globalist goal.
“The time for gentile politics as usual has come to an end. It’s time for the rise of the new right, it’s time for Dark MAGA to truly take command,” he continued, invoking the spirit of Darth Vader.
“We have an enemy to defeat, but we will never be able to defeat them until we defeat the cowardly and weak members of our own party. Their days are numbered. We are coming.”
Yes, Cawthorn did say the time for “gentile politics” was over, but it was a typo. He later edited it to say “genteel politics.”

Recent controversies to dog Cawthorn include his claims of being invited by fellow Republicans to cocaine-fueled orgies in Washington, and a leaked video of him, naked in bed, thrusting his crotch into the face of his cousin.
His latest ramblings elicited a collective eye-roll from most online.
You’re gonna be lucky to get a job restocking the little tree air fresheners at a do-it-yourself car wash, tree puncher.
You’re a pariah in your own cult of a party. A feat particularly impressive given the fact that they let Boebert, Greene, Gaetz & Jordan stay.
You’re over.— Jo 🌻 (@JoJoFromJerz) May 19, 2022

Some advice from a teacher:
Concentrate on becoming educated and maturing. Go to college. Get a degree. Do some volunteer work, mayber even in the disability community. Do something positive with your life. You’ve been given a do-over. Take advantage of it.— Patricia (@Principalaz) May 19, 2022
Hey, @TheJusticeDept . If you haven’t already looked into all of these “patriots,” here you go.

Ha! @mattgaetz deleted his tweet endorsing you the very second you lost.

Yet, you refuse to accept any personal responsibility for your loss. You’re not a victim here – you’re responsible. Own it

How cute. The comments section of Maddie’s Twitter is the closet thing to victory Leftists will have this year. Laugh while you can because November 8 is coming at you hard!

WOW, jt1990 You might need to come up for air. You have spent too long Up Trumps Rear End being a Trump Taint Sniffer Bobert will be knocked out June 28th because she has been caught with her hands in the cookie jar. Ooops

@jt1990:
You do understand,
(or are you too stupid) that there are more registered Democrats than there are tiny minded Republicans like you, or are you too stupid.
Are you aware that among independents, more are centrist or left of center than are rabidly right wing and full of hatred for participatory democracy , like you are? Certainly you must understand that Cawthorn lost the nomination simply because his constituents were sick of him doing NOTHING in their interest.
Or are you, like so many of those with similar anti-American leanings, too dumb to really understand anything; simply doing what your corporate/wealthy/cynical overlords tell you to? It really is a minority who want a theocratic dictatorship as you will learn come the midterms.

Dark MAGA sounds like something that happens at those parties he got invited. “Lindsey Graham gave Mitch McConnell the ol’ Dark MAGA”.

LOL! I love this comment!

Trump, boebart, and Green doesn’t = honorable you shithead. Lol
Oh and that establishment that you speak of was your own effing party because you’re too stupid to keep your mouth shut.
Now go roll off a cliff.

The vibes he gives off should be studied by criminalogists and the FBI. This guy is a lunatic. How sad for him.
jt1990
Maddie’s nothing more than some edgy middle school kid trapped in a 26 year old’s body. I doubt he really stands for the cause and only says what he thinks GOP voters want to hear. Probably based on what his liberal college professors taught him.

@jt1990:
In other words, his intellect and level of maturity are essentially the same as yours.
Why exactly do folks like you hate this country so damn much? Do us all a favor and go to somewhere like Russia or Hungary where the form of government is more to your liking. You will not be missed.

Ok. You go on, Madison. We see you.

I’ve long thought of the Republican party as being analogous to the evil Empire or the Sith. It’s nice to be validated by one of its own members.

LOSER! He is evil and dangerous. The DOJ needs to get their act together and pounce on this insurrectionist lunatic.
So I take it Marilyn, no offer as yet from Sean Cody or Corbin Fisher?

Marilyn is a legendary global class act, not to be confused with the opposite. Maybe a more suitable reference?

He is such a disgusting human being. He has a black heart and soul. I wish he would go away and run for office in Russia.
Kangol2
Nothing “black” about him! He’s about as White as you get and let the White supremacists and nationalists claim him and deal with him so the rest of us don’t have to!

This douchebag is going to take advantage of his Hitler Jungend face and recent defeat in order to re-invent himself as a victim and a voice in the desert in search of followers. And he’ll find them. I just hope there aren’t very many of them.
dbmcvey
This seems good. The Republican party continuing to eat itself. I just hope no innocents are hurt as they chew on each other.
Mack
On my FB page today I had an ad for “Dark MAGA”. I laughed. I clicked on the comments and the remarks made were hilarious. I also got a bunch of Republicans running for local offices so some how I’ve gotten on the Republicans FB list. They’re now selling the “products”.
Essie
I agree with the advice from the teacher . . . he needs to educate himself and mature into an actual adult. Right now he is thinking of himself as a victim but it was his own people who victimized him. He needs to stop for a minute and think about that. If he thinks all those people he has listed will stick by him now that he can’t do anything for them, he needs to just stop. I would be sad for him if he wasn’t such a douche. I really think he needs some serious mental health intervention. Do his parents even care about him?

I wonder if he knows that gentle and gentile have different meanings. That statement could be interpreted as anti-Semitic. Gentle politics or Gentile politics. I think we all know the true meaning even with his grammatical error.

reality finds madison cawthorn.
i hate to tip off someone who i find so repulsive but theres no one in line behind him. he’s flying solo on this dark maga journey hes embarking on. if he was smart, and hes not, he would at least wait for them to GET OUT OF JAIL for insurrection before he asks them to go dark again.
oh yeah, good luck in traffic court and at the airports carrying guns. your “GET OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD” has been declined.
Carabalda
“…time for gentile politics as usual has come to an end…” Is he a complete moron (rhetorical question)? “Gentile” is a word describing someone who is not of the Hebrew/Jewish faith. Maybe he meant “genteel”, defined as “polite, refined, respectable.” But neither he nor any of his despicable supporters has practiced any level of “polite, refined or respectable” politics. Just the opposite. Vile, lying, hateful insurrectionists bent on destroying democracy in this country. They all belong in jail, if not in hell.

Maybe he’ll do an Only Fans. I’m sure SOMEONE will pay to see him rub one out.
