It’s been a while since we’ve checked in on our old gun shootin’, craft beer drinkin’, toasted bagel eatin’ congresswoman Stephanie Bice.
In one way, this is probably a good thing, because – as opposed to Markwayne Mullin – it means she’s doing a good enough job of not reinforcing negative stereotypes about stupid-ass Okies on the national stage, and instead simply lurking in the background as a forgettable, self-serving, rank-and-file member of Congress who is content bowing and kowtowing to every demand of congressional leadership in their quest to appease and satisfy all-glorious and powerful Donald Trump.
Basically, things could be worse.
That being said, angry liberal voters who want to yell and scream at her in town halls think she’s doing a bit too good a job hiding in the background.
Via Oklahoma Watch:
Republican Rep. Stephanie Bice of Oklahoma on Wednesday night defended her use of remote town halls after a constituent on the call confronted her and accused her of dodging voters.
“Without dodging my question or giving me the okey doke, can you tell me why you are not holding in-person town halls, where you can look your constituents in the face, eye-to-eye, and answer tough questions?” the caller said.
“These town halls, telephone town halls, are a joke, and are screened, carefully screened. I had to pretend to be asking another question. I would have never gotten this question in,” the caller added.
