‘I’ve been shocked... how many of my peers said, well, Elissa, I’d love to be with you on that issue, but Twitter will be mad’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

HOOVER: “Sounds like what you're saying is, you know, Republicans fear Trump, and Democrats fear each other's factions.”
SLOTKIN: “Sometimes, fear Twitter.”
HOOVER: “Yeah.”
SLOTKIN: “You know, I've been shocked -- you know, I'm new to the Senate, six months in -- how many of my peers said, 'Well, Elissa, I'd love to be with you on that issue, but, you know, Twitter will be mad. You know, the Internet people will be mad at me.'“
HOOVER: “They literally say that?”
SLOTKIN: “Yeah. There'll be a bad online response.”
