Rep. McDowell to Newsmax: ‘Childish’ if Dems Disrupt Trump’s Speech

Rep. Addison McDowell, R-N.C., told Newsmax that he hasn’t heard of any Democrat plan to disrupt President Donald Trump’s joint address to Congress on Tuesday night, but it would be “childish behavior” if his colleagues across the aisle decided to do so.  

“I haven’t heard anything about that, but look, if they do, what it will signify to the American people is that they have not heard the message that they sent us in November, which was a mandate to secure the border, to fix the economy that [former President] Joe Biden broke,” McDowell said Tuesday on “National Report.”

“If Democrats want to highlight to the American people that they’ve not learned their lesson and that they don’t agree with the 80% of Americans that feel a certain way, and they want to fight for the 20%, that’s fine with me,” he said. “Let them. But it would be an incredible embarrassment for that party to disrupt the president’s speech in the chamber. That’s just childish behavior.”
