If them going through Hunter Biden's dick pics while the price of everything was going through the roof wasn't enough to show Republican voters they don't care, them being bullies to the 1st transgender member while the price of things still remains high isn't going to change those voters either.

In fact, they may enjoy watching members of Congress gang up and bully this new member.

Fortunately for them, Republicans will inherit a healthy economy from Biden, which will eventually lead to decreased inflation and lower prices, so all the voters will continue supporting Trump and his bullies.
