Rep. Mark Alford (R-MO) was told by a constituent to remove his head from Donald Trump’s ass at a town hall on Monday.
At the event in Bolivar, Missouri one constituent who identified himself as Fred Higginbotham pressed the Republican lawmaker about his continued support for Trump, who Higginbotham referred to as a “dictator.”
“I’m pissed at you. The man is a dictator,” Higginbotham said. “He knows nothing about what he talks about. I listened to him for about a half hour today, and I got sick at all the lies he brought up.”
Higginbotham told Alford he is about to lose his farm because he is having some difficulty understanding Missouri’s laws regarding trusts and wills and the congressman’s office has been of no help.
He then encouraged Alford to “start taxing corporations and the wealthy” to “straighten out the budget” as the audience applauded.
“Do you think we’re idiots? Do you think we don’t pay taxes? Do you think that we don’t have to make budgets?” he asked. “You talk about half-truths when I listen to you. You know nothing about taking care of children because you’ve always had a good paying job. You know nothing about what a working class citizen does.”
“Believe me, you are not helping me,” Higginbothan added. “You need to take your head out of Trump’s ass and start doing your representation of us.”
Alford told Higginbotham he will get back to him about his farm.
