Sen. Eric Schmitt asks Jack Smith to tell him what he's writing down in his notes, but then even he realizes he went too far and says, "never mind"

Was not overly familiar with Schmitt. Now I am. What a disgusting excuse for an US Senator.

I was able to zoom in on Jack Smith’s notepad…

You’d think Schmitt would care about Trump’s national-security risks. Instead, he tried to catch Jack Smith writing notes—then realized how absurd the question was and bailed with “never mind.” A cheap little performance from a senator who couldn’t even pull off the gotcha.

“What are you writing down?” … “Never mind.” Bro realized mid-question that he was asking for the classified notes package

Wow Schmitt is an enormous dickhead. He thought he had a gotcha and was preening like a toddler who wants to should off a turd - and all his info was wrong. I couldn't even follow that crazy. Fucking embarrassing.

@SenEricSchmitt doesn’t understand the difference between college and pro sports.

#DirtbagEricSchmitt

Imagine if these knuckleheads were actually spending time on something other than tonight’s Fox News sound bites. @Eric_Schmitt

This whole thing is a Republican shit show.

Hey @Eric_Schmitt you're the dirtbag and miserable MF for protecting a POS like Trump. History will show that, not the other way around.

@SenEricSchmitt got caught LYING! Thank You! @SenAmyKlobuchar Your way smarter than that tRump ball washer! Jack Smith is an American Hero!

this entire confrontation was insane. Amy to save the day

This guy is a royal #Douchebag. I would have told him to fuck all the way off.

If somebody called me a dirtbag I would tell him to go fuck himself even in a senate hearing.

LMAO! Caught him up with those messages. LMAO!!!

It's amusing to watch them attempt to rattle Smith.

Lord they’re clowns. 🤡 Republicans are getting desperate.

That was totally inappropriate

This guy is a real ahole!!!!!

Republicans: Note taking! Treason! Lock him up!

... Before Schmitt accused Jack Smith of perjury because Schmitt can't tell the difference between Hawks and Hawkeyes

One of the biggest assholes who got caught tripped up in bullshit insinuation and lying about Smith being in Georgia when he was in Maryland. These GOP assholes are about as unserious as they come. And are the same ones who recognised Trump was responsible for 1/6, whitewashing.

Jack should have responded, what hole does Trump use of yours ?

Smith should have just asked why he wanted to know

Not everybody knows that there is a B in dumB or Bigly

Gonna write a poem about Schmitt...

That guy is definitely being an asshole showing off for his thug president.

CNN dropped coverage of this important hearing. Orders from above?

Never mind tells us he dropped the question not why. Report the exchange without pretending to read his mind. Then get back to what matters: Smith’s evidence, his decisions, and whether they stand up to scrutiny.

Ha, Smith handled that beautifully.

His notes are very easily seen and modern cameras can zoom in on those with no problem. He's not trying to hide them at all. And as a fellow leftie, way to go, Jack!

@SenEricSchmitt is a f**king c**t.

What. The. Hell.
