Cawthorn: No Regrets For Speaking At Pre-Riot Rally

The Hill reports:

In a portion of a forthcoming interview on “The Carlos Watson Show” shared exclusively with The Hill, Watson, co-founder and CEO of media company OZY, asked Cawthorn if he had any second thoughts about his participation in the rally after looking at the violence that ensued at the Capitol, in which five people died.

“I don’t regret it, actually, Carlos,” Cawthorn responded. “Obviously, I think what happened on Jan. 6 was despicable. I thought it was conducted by weak-minded men and women who are unable to check their worst impulses and had very little self-control. Completely condemn it.”

At the event, Cawthorn said, “This crowd has some fight in it. The Republicans hiding and not fighting, they are trying to silence your voice. We’re not doing this just for Donald Trump, we are doing this for the Constitution.”
