Reid, Lemon Cry ‘Insurrectionist Grift’ Over Hawley Selling Coffee Mugs

Joy Reid, Don Lemon and others had a row over Josh Hawley, a Republican from Missouri. They were selling coffee mugs in support of his campaign.  

Reid, the host of MSNBC’s vile Hawley fundraising show, was the one who had the most meltdown about Hawley’s stunt. She freaked out right at the end. ReidOutHawley is “Trying his hand at the insurrectionist grrift.” 

Reid continued digging by falsely claiming Hawley was his sincere friend. “Not content to be just the face of the sedition eggsing on January 6th rioters He was demonstrating his support by praising his fist as he passed protesters walking by him before January 6th riots. “Now, trying to cash in”  

Reid continues her temper tantrum with coffee mugs. “it’s fitting that triggering the libs would be the campaign promise from the Senator” Hawley was subsequently slandered by a false allegation. “Proudly own the violence he started that day.” 

CNN’s three-hour delay Don’t forget Lemon tonight, host Don Lemon also acted outraged that Hawley would dare sell coffee mugs, whining at the end of his show “Republican Senator Josh Hawley takes the photo of his first pump outside the Capitol hours prior to the January 6 insurrection. It’s all about campaign merchandise.” 

Lemon informed his shrinking audience about the importance of for “$20 supporters can purchase the “show me strong” white coffee mug” This is Hawley’s play-off for the motto of his home state, “The Show-Me State.”   

“So, for all at home, a reminding of what he showed to us that day.” Lemmon lamented. “He was one of 147 Republicans to object to the 2020 election results even though there is zero proof of fraud.” 

Lemon and Reid don’t understand why Hawley sells mugs. He isn’t trying to promote an insurrection or support the terrible riots at Capitol that every Republican Senator condemned. Hawley likes the image and feels it is good for a mug. The idea is very simple.

JOY REID – Missouri’s Republican Senator Josh Hawley is trying to insurrectionist grift. The Hawley campaign doesn’t want to be just the face of insurrectionist grift..Coffee mugs with the images and words “Show me Strong” are being sold. This is a bad interpretation of the state’s motto, which also sounds like an appeal to the Lord. Show me strength, please. The mug was advertised in a campaign email as a cool new nick-nack. It is made in America. Tipp your waiter. It’s fitting that triggering the libs would be the campaign promise from the Senator. Evidently, he proudly admitted to the infliction of the violence on that day. The GQP has officially declared it legitimate political speech. According to the Washington Post, he said that he didn’t regret his actions because some people were there simply for protest. It was a cruel idea to have everyone in the same bucket for chanting hang Mike Pence. He called that a slur.

DON LEMON : This is what Republican Senator Josh Hawley does. He takes the picture of his first pump and shows it to pro-Trump demonstrators at the Capitol in the hours prior to the January 6th rebellion. You can get campaign merchandise for $20. For $20 supporters can purchase the “show me strong” white coffee mug. Hawley’s home state of Missouri is known as the show me state. This is for all of us at home, as a reminder about what he did that day. Even though the proof is not incontrovertible, he was among 147 Republicans who objected to the results of 2020..Recall that Republican Mitt Romney, a Republican colleague, stared at Hawley with daggers during the objection speech. It’s disappointing for Senator Hawley then to glorify those actions and objections by gifting a souvenir coffee mug. However, it’s much more. It’s calculated. He is trying to keep his political support by telling a big lie. To keep his campaign running, he can make use of the mug cash. He might even need the money. After January 6, Hawley was called out by a major donor and asked for his censure. Hawley’s one-time mentor former GOP Senator John Danforth said supporting him and I quote here, was the worst mistake of my life.
