McCormick wasbooed lustilywhen he tried to dismiss concerns about Trumps flagrant abuses of power.

McCormick responded by saying, I happen to be a doctor.

He even at one point compared his constituents to Jan. 6 rioters.
Not the indiscriminate firing of people.
McCormick even seemed to acknowledge things had gone too far while addressing his constituents in Georgia.

I think were out of balance right now.
AWashington Post/Ipsospollreleased this week found that 57 percent of Americans think he is overstepping his authority.

I have not heard of those numbers before.
