Rep. Madison Cawthorn, R-N.C., called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a "thug" last Saturday, arguing that the Ukrainian government, now under siege by the Russian military, is "incredibly corrupt" and "incredibly evil."
"Remember that Zelenskky is a thug," Cawthorn said during a town hall in his home state last week. "Remember that the Ukrainian government is incredibly corrupt and is incredibly evil and has been pushing woke ideologies."
