Two controversial lawmakers are finding out that maybe it’s not such a good idea to be controversial and instead work for your constituents. Imagine that. Three venues in California have now bailed on Reps Matt Greene and Marjorie Taylor Green, leaving the pair without a venue just hours before a Saturday evening ‘American First’ rally. Greene, who lost her committee assignments over her past social media posts supporting violence against Democrats, and Gaetz, who is under investigation for the possible sex trafficking of a minor, are without a place to go. Bummer.
Well, Gaetz took to his Twitter account to say, “Nothing like feeling welcome in Anaheim!” after the city canceled their event.
Nothing like feeling welcome in Anaheim! https://t.co/lh6CsgxJJK

Twitter users were not amused.
Have you tried not being a piece of shit?

MATT GAETZ: Hello, we’d like to bring a bunch of heavily-armed men to a rally where we will incite the violent overthrow of the government.
CITY: Yeah, we don’t want any part of that.
MATT GAETZ: WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?

Generally speaking, most communities don’t welcome unrepentant assholes who sexually assault teenagers. https://t.co/eMXRvGUPjU

It’s because you’re a traitor.
This isn’t hard to figure out.
Please avoid Disneyland, Matty.

Bummer!
Now you have to quickly find a venue that will host you and isn’t within 500 yards of a school zone.
Gonna be tough, good luck with that.

This isn’t cancel culture. It’s called consequences. But I’m sure he’ll blame Antifa and whatnot.
