BPR: A Tennessee Democrat displayed a sick sense of humor when he joked about wishing congresswoman Marsha Blackburn would jump off a bridge.
And Rep. Steve Cohen made the comment at a church prayer breakfast for her Democrat opponent.
The breakfast, hosted by former Gov. Phil Bredesen, who is running for U.S. Senate against Blackburn, was held at the Broadway Baptist Church in Memphis last month. Audio of the comments was obtained by the Huffington Post.
“The big orange president, that’s not somebody from Knoxville,” Cohen said. “He’s going to come down here and endorse Marsha Blackburn. ‘Cause Marsha Blackburn, if he says, ‘jump off the Harahan Bridge,’ she’ll jump off the Harahan Bridge.”
“I wish he’d say that,” he added, as the audience laughed. “She will do anything he says.” more
Marsha Blackburn is late discovering/realizing this POS was never her friend when they were both in the Tenn legislature as she thought. She needs to go another step and admit he is a low class / no class bum.
Dont listen to them steve when they say “dont quit your day job”.
I’m going to keep saying it. blackburn is a vile, evil horse abusing cunt.
I prefer a GOP Senator who will work with Trump versus Phil Bredesen (D) who will be Schumer’s socialist butt buddy.

I don’t care if Blackburn has a roasted horse for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And a Rottweiler for desert. She’s got my vote over that bastard Bredesen.
Blackburn turned into a swamp creature so she’s going to need all the blind support she can get. Squish and Blackburn go together like peanut butter and jelly.
That’s why Bredesen runs all those ads where he’s a calm, reasonable problem solver who reaches across the aisle.
Anyone who has listened to a Blackburn speech in the last decade can hear she is divorced from the people she represents and cannot even speak the language of conservatism. She mouths platitudes and arranges words in a way that do not make sense. She comes off as “severely conservative” reading a script someone else wrote.
Having said that, I voted for her in the primary because I have no choice. I am not the voter she needs to worry about. She has survived in a safe Williamson County district her entire tenure and now she has to win in a non-slam dunk statewide race. I question if she can do it.
