BREAKING: Rep. Madison Cawthorn has conceded to state Sen. Chuck Edwards, his campaign spokesman tells reporters. (via thereidout Blog)
But, believe it or not, things only seemed to get worse for Cawthorn after that. Beginning in mid-April, a series of salacious photos and videos started popping up online: one featuring him wearing lingerie, another showing a man touching Cawthorn's crotch over his pants, and another showing Cawthorn thrusting his naked body on top of another man.attributed
the leaks to the Republican “establishment” and “RINO” senators, who he said were trying to sabotage his re-election bid. And the sabotage seems to have worked. Former President Donald Trump endorsed Cawthorn's re-election campaign last year and doubled down on his support this week.. “Recently, he made some foolish mistakes, which I don’t believe he’ll make again…let’s give Madison a second chance!”Even if Cawthorn had won, his general election victory in the state's 11th congressional district wouldn’t have been preordained.
Now, ousted from his office, it’s unclear whether Cawthorn will wage a vendetta against GOP lawmakers who set out to sink his re-election bid. Sure, he’s been separated from the power electoral politics afforded him. But he might still hold sway among the band of extremists that have followed him and other right-wing politicians like Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Lauren Boebert of Colorado.
If that’s the case, Cawthorn could still have the power to influence GOP politics and make some Republicans very miserable.
