Had a great discussion with my Transportation Advisory Coalition this morning at @RCCDecaturIL. Wanted to get their input as we consider surface transportation legislation and a potential broader infrastructure bill in Congress. I'm hoping we can do these on a bipartisan basis. pic.twitter.com/rUnL5bPCoI
You know if you break down “bipartisan” you have bi (two of something) and partisan (a strong supporter) so Davis accomplished his goal and had a bipartisan meeting!
I will give props to any politician who is proud to show they are meeting with constituents even if it is 2 of them. Good politicians meet people even if it is one at a time.

He’s keeping his distance.
He’s starting to bleed.
He’s all alone, all alone
In his time of need.
His district’s moving and changing and getting remapped of course,
He’s fighting and whining and falling off his horse,
He’s keeping his distance.
Rodney Davis: Don’t you all in the back just love this table cloth with my name on it? Now everyone knows who I am. Plus having this microphone those way back there can hear me talk in circles. Greg do you have a question?

So, not the well-funded, “moderate” GOP candidate for Gov that many are seeking?
- PublicServant - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 7:25 am:
Lack of roads limits crowd at Davis presser.
- 47th Ward - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 7:31 am:
Glad they are observing proper distancing and capacity limits.
- Bruce( no not him) - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 7:43 am:
Thanks for the both of you for coming.
I thought you were bringing all my supporters.
Oh, you are all my supporters.
Well, shoot.

Don’t forget about the guy who took the picture, that increases attendance by 50%.

They had to clear out a whole Chuck E. Cheese dining room for four people? This is why people are demanding a minimum wage increase.

- Huh? - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 9:25 am:
This covid thing is a hoax, but we’ll social distance to avoid becoming a meme on capfax.
- Huh? - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 9:27 am:
I’m hoping we can do these on a bipartisan basis, by that I mean my way.
- Gohawks123 - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 9:30 am:
I hope he does run for Gov. At least when he loses, we won’t have to see him in office for awhile

The audience is so far away you would need surface transportation to properly deliver Davis’ speech

So the owners of 2 guys and a truck come to meet Congressman Davis……..
Sounds like the start of a terrible joke

Do we all have enough blue to make me look bipartisan?
- Al - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 10:24 am:
Be nice. It is early. He could be Governor.
- Flyin' Elvis'-Utah Chapter - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 10:57 am:
“It is early”
Okay. When, if he announces for gov, would it no longer be early?
What I see is an incumbent congressman who has been in office since 2013 draw two people to a press conference.
Bailey outdraws that w/o trying.

RD: Why don’t you guys come closer to the stage like at a big concert?
Guys: We’re good. Nice seats.
- Flying Elvis'-Utah Chapter - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 12:01 pm:
“Meet the 44th Governor”
or
“Meet the 4 term Illinois congressman who drew two people to his press conference.”
- Huh? - Friday, Jun 4, 21 @ 12:18 pm:
Who’s deal is it? What game are we playing?

U.S. Congressman Rodney Davis realizes that he is going to lose a primary against a woman who quoted Hitler after saying he was right.
