GOP Lawmaker Jokes About Kavanaugh Allegations

Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) “opened an election debate Thursday by joking that he almost had to miss it and fly back to Washington to address the latest drama involving the Supreme Court,” the Charleston Post & Courier reports.

Said Norman: “Did y’all hear the latest late-breaking news on the Kavanaugh hearings? Ruth Bader Ginsburg came out saying she was groped by Abraham Lincoln.”

Norman is the same lawmaker who pulled out a gun at a town meeting earlier this year and said, “I’m not going to be Gabby Giffords.”
