Tennessee GOP Rep jeered while wearing Trump flag amid district fight responds: ‘Bring it on!’

Democrats in Tennessee lost their ever-loving minds Thursday when the Republican-led state House of Representatives passed a redistricting map that would eliminate the liberal party’s only congressional district.

While Democrat lawmakers threw any thoughts of decorum to the wind, stomping, screaming and cursing, state Rep. Todd Warner (R) was not intimidated. In fact, Warner responded by boldly donning a Trump “No More Bullsh*t” flag as a cape while walking the halls and the strain was more than the left could bear.

“I stand with President @realDonaldTrump. I stand for Tennessee. And I will never apologize for it,” Warner posted on X, while sharing video of his antics.

I stand with President @realDonaldTrump. I stand for Tennessee. And I will never apologize for it.

“Wore my Trump flag as a cape during the special session and the Democrats started screaming ‘racist’ at me on sight. They don’t know me. Never met me. Just saw the flag and had a meltdown. That’s the modern Democrat Party in a nutshell,” the GOP lawmaker said. “They smear anyone who stands with President Trump. They’ve called him every name in the book for years. Now they’re doing it to everyday Americans who refuse to bow down. It’s their only move when they can’t win on policy or truth.”

“They lecture us about ‘democracy’ while they gerrymandered for decades, cheered the 2020 steal, and now cry foul when maps don’t go their way. It’s all an act,” he continued. “I’ve taken FBI raids, millions in lobbyist attack ads, and every cheap shot the Nashville establishment could throw at me. None of it broke me. The radical left doesn’t scare me. Their slurs don’t scare me. Their temper tantrums don’t scare me. Bring it on!”

The left jeered Warner while oozing hatred about racism, but as Todd Starnes noted in a post on X, party trumps skin color — at least for the left, it seems.

“Rep. Steven Cohen (D-TN) – a white dude – has represented Memphis in Congress for nearly 20 years,” Starnes said. “During his tenure, Republicans nominated a BLACK WOMAN as their choice FIVE times. Democrats could have elected a black woman but she was the wrong political persuasion.”

PLEASE READ THIS: The congressional redistricting in Tennessee has nothing to do with race. I live in Memphis. This is the reality of the situation:

Rep. Steven Cohen (D-TN) – a white dude – has represented Memphis in Congress for nearly 20 years.

During his tenure,…

I’d love to have been there with you, Todd. You’re a great guy and a great American. TN is a great state.

Tennessee Conservatives applaud you for being bold and leading! The all-red map represents the majority of Tennesseans. Thank you, sir.

Ironically, the Dem party cares nothing about race and black voter rights. All they care about is Dem control. They would happily accept an all white KKK district if they were certain a Dem candidate would be elected.
