Senator Tom Cotton was met by a giant crowd of angry constituents at a town hall event in Arkansas Wednesday. The senator faced an angry crowd that was clearly there to show their opposition to repealing Obamacare. The crowd also demanded an investigation into Trump’s Russia scandal.
One woman asked everyone in the audience who had been affected by Obamacare to stand up which resulted in nearly the entire room to stand up.
Another woman slammed Cotton for sending her the same letter over and over when she tried to get a hold of him, saying “I have sent you one message after the other, sir, about our family. I live just down the road a few places from your office, and I have invited you into our home, and not a word, except a classic, regular letter sent.”
Here are more pictures and videos from Tom Cotton’s town hall:
