WATCH: Rep. Tim Burchett Hilariously Roasts Democrat Operative Outside Capitol
In a lighthearted exchange caught on camera outside the Capitol, Representative Tim Burchett (R-TN) used humor to sidestep a question posed by a paid Democrat operative. The moment shared on X, showed Burchett’s unique approach to deflecting policy-related questions.
The video began with the person asking Representative Burchett if he would commit to opposing a nationwide abortion ban. Instead of addressing the question, Burchett responded with a quip about the questioner’s appearance.
“Representative, will you commit to opposing a nationwide abortion ban?”
“Will you commit to putting some sunscreen on those legs? Man, I gotta wear welding goggles after this,” Burchett joked.
