A town hall meeting with Rep. Chuck Edwards in Asheville devolved into chaos as constituents fiercely questioned him on President Trump's foreign policy, particularly regarding the annexation of Canada and Greenland, and U.S. actions in Ukraine. Edwards struggled to respond directly to the blunt inquiries, ultimately stating he did not support Trump's approach but faced backlash from constituents when he defended resource extraction from Ukraine as a method to recover aid costs. The heated atmosphere culminated in protests outside, highlighting the growing discontent among constituents regarding Republican leadership and policies.
But when he backed Trump's stance on extracting resources from Ukraine framing it as a way to recover the billions sent in aid the crowd snapped and jeered.
The meeting escalated quickly as constituents put Edwards on the spot over the actions of the Trump administration.
After attempting to navigate the list of questions, Edwards conceded: The short answer to that is no, I do not.
A Republican town hall meeting erupted in a furious showdown after Rep. Chuck Edwards' constituents grilled him over President Donald Trump's foreign policy.
