| Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) getting a gut check. |
House Republican Jason Chaffetz of Utah is often bitching and bemoaning about Benghazi and Hillary Clinton's emails. He spent a majority of the election year trying to uncover a scandal within the Obama White House and demonized Clinton throughout her failed campaign.
He, Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) and Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) were gadflies to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. They often appeared on Sean "Softball" Hannity's program trying to dog on Obama for allowing four Americans die in the 2012 Benghazi Consulate Attack.
So far, he hasn't made any priorities to the failed Yemeni raid in which one Navy Seal was killed.
He was upset over Kellyanne Conway giving a plug to Ivana Trump's fashion line. Conway got flack for giving a plug while being a federal office holder. She got a slap on the wrist.
Matter of fact, conflict is existing with Mike Flynn, the National Security Advisor. He is under fire for coordinating with the Russian ambassador about the getting the sanctions lift when the fuhrer Donald J. Trump hops into the White House.
Obama called for harsh sanctions against Russia for meddling in the election. It's confirmed that Russia had played in a role in getting Trump elected.
Trump ignores the concerns and dismissed it as "fake news" and he believes it undermines his surprise victory.
Chaffetz hasn't move a muscle on the issues.
So when he held his town hall in suburban Salt Lake City, he got an earful.
Protesters shouted him down. They also shouted down Betsy DeVos, Rep. Dave Brat (R-VA) recently.
