A MAGA senator attracted online ire by making a threat against one of Trump’s political foes.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) called Obama “a crook” during an appearance on Real America’s Voice on Tuesday and demanded, “Let’s put him in jail.” He added that Fauci “should be in prison” for supposedly “lying to the American people,” but didn’t specify why he thought Obama should be in jail.
Online, critics responded by attacking Tuberville, his candidacy for Alabama governor, and his MAGA politics.
Journalist John Harwood called Tuberville a “racist goober” in a post on X.
Sports reporter and NY Daily News columnist Mike Lupica reacted to Tuberville’s comments, writing, “Lord, this guy is a tool.”
Eric Michael Garcia, the D.C. bureau chief for The Independent, drily commented, “the next governor of Alabama.”
Similarly, liberal political commentator Vince Wilson wrote, “‘Candidate, Governor (AL)’ says it all,” referring to how Real America’s Voice described him.
“This is what Tuberville says because he had no plan to lower grocery prices for Alabama, just another imaginary enemy,” posted Democratic political strategist and writer Christopher Webb
