Madison Cawthorn

Who lost his primary after one term, is suspected of misusing campaign funds, and no longer does any constituent work.

And now lives in Florida, where he plans to re-enter politics.

Even Matt Gaetz couldn't make it

Gaetz, who is currently in Washington, DC, told Associated Press reporter Farnoush Amiri on Tuesday he would not be able to attend the rally due to inclement weather affecting his flight, but said he would support Trump "in spirit."

A spokesperson for Gaetz clarified to Insider that Gaetz could not make his flight to Mar-a-Lago because the GOP House leadership vote occurred at the same time as his scheduled flight and the congressman hoped the weather would delay the flight.

"Unfortunately, because of the timing of both the scheduled House leadership vote and his flight, he is unable to attend President Trump's event tonight," the spokesperson said.

However, the Independent reported 80% of flights coming out of Reagan National Airport were on schedule, despite light drizzle.

Good choice. He's right up Florida's alley.

Think you mean Madison Cawthorn, but that's ok. The sooner we forget him the better.

He apparently just bought a house in Florida for over $1M, so he must have a sugar daddy somewhere.

Mar a Lago used to be Trump's palace where some people went to ask if they could kiss his ring and get his blessing and other people were just there to try to get money and other people were starry eyed sycophants.

It seems like over the next several months that Mar a Lago will become more and more like a gold gilded bunker with a lot fewer ring kissers and maybe even fewer people there just trying to get money, leaving Trump surrounded in his bunker more and more with sycophants telling him whatever he wants to hear.

Okay, well, that's probably just wishful imagery on my part.

No, not wishful thinking. Once Murdoch cut him loose he isn’t going anywhere. His poor zombie cult won’t know what to do - until Faux Noise tells them once again what to do.

he was stripped of committee assignments and he's gone in January. Why spend time and money to be in DC? This is a young guy whose life just fell apart - he's gonna have to think it out for a while.

Yeah, but this is someone who made commitments to a lot of people, people who elected him to office. Even if he is now ineffective, he should at least honor those commitments.

Continue to try until the term is up; leave gracefully when the term is up. It says a lot about someone’s character.

I think this move says a lot about his character ...

Imagine if any of us were fortunate enough to be elected to congress. How seriously we would take that responsibility. How fortunate we would feel.
