Republican Congressman-elect Dan Crenshaw of Texas repeatedly challenged three newly-elected Democrats to defend their claims and tone down their rhetoric during an appearance on “Face the Nation” Sunday.
During the appearance, Democrat Congressman-elect Joseph Neguse of Colorado claimed American democracy was imperiled. “I think we’re all working together really in the same direction trying to save our democracy, to be frank,” he said.
Crenshaw pushed back, pointing out that Democrats had just democratically returned to power in the House of Representatives and that voter turnout was at record highs. “Democracy is at work,” he said. “What democratic freedoms have been undermined?”
The three Democrats on the panel immediately went into full attack mode.
