Rep. Markwayne Mullin is facing backlash for telling constituents during an Oklahoma town hall Tuesday that the idea they pay his salary is “bullcrap.” The Oklahoma Republican told the crowd in Jay that he “paid enough taxes” as the owner of multiple businesses in order to pay his own salary. “You said you pay for me to do this. Bullcrap. I pay for myself. I paid enough taxes before I got there and continue to through my company to pay my own salary. This is a service. No one here pays me to go,” Mr. Mullin said in a video of the exchange. “I do it as an honor and a service.”

Good Lord how do we get such stupid people on our side?

Who is showing up at these anti Republican meetings in red districts. Possibly a lot of Soros financed losers.
Need more data.
I think he can kiss any chance of another term goodbye.
Double down Mark - can’t never be too stupid!
This is as stupid as the idiot in Indiana that said women release a hormone to prevent pregnancy in the case of rape.
Next time call him a public servant and see what happens.

That’s gonna leave a mark on his permanent record.
I paid President Trumps salary as President. All $1.
That was a good one wasn’t it?
Despite describing the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 as a “horrible waste of tax dollars”, Mullin’s plumbing business took approximately $370,000 of government funds from that program.

Hmmm, whoever pays his salary, those voters in his district do vote for him or for an opponent.
That sounds like something Maxine
Waters would say.
“This is a service.”
Hmmmmm. . . maybe “self” service? Well it is Oklahoma. And very close to Arkansas . . .
“Despite describing the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 as a “horrible waste of tax dollars”, Mullin’s plumbing business took approximately $370,000 of government funds from that program.”
So he opposes all government subsidies, except the ones that go to him?
Exactly.
Must be related to that AH Egg McMuffin McMullen who ran for President on the “Mitt Romey is a Looser” Ticket last year.
