Who thumbs it better?
Wednesday, Dec 13, 2023 - Posted by Isabel Miller * Starting off with Rep. Dave Severin (R-Benton)…  * On to Rep. Hoan Huynh (D-Chicago) who has regularly posted thumbs-up photos since he started running for the House…
* Back to Severin…  * Huyn’s got a whole crew…  * Trust me, this post could have hundreds of images…

Can’t believe I actually voted for a Democrat. It must be the Holiday Season.
- The Truth - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 11:30 am:
Dave’s thumb has the experience
- Dirty Red - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 11:33 am:
Severin rocks the thumbs up off-camera, too, no matter where he is in that massive district.
- Pot calling kettle - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 11:36 am:
A tie until I got to the last photo.
- OneMan - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 11:46 am:
Pot calling kettle, I was the same. The last photo pushed it over the edge for him.

Dave Severin - the original House GOP thumbs upper. If they’re copying you, you’re winning!

Rich, this is peak Capitol Fax content. The coach v the phenom. Perfect.
- Rich Miller - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 11:55 am:
===Rich===
This is Isabel’s post.
- Dan Johnson - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 11:55 am:
Thanks. Isabel is the new phenom. And I should read the bylines.

Severin has a massive district that her all over the place and listen even if does not agree with your position and tells you the truth about where he stands and will do thumbs up with those he does not agree with also.
- H-W - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 12:06 pm:
Rep. Huyhn’s seems more thumby.
- JSI - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 12:08 pm:
Has Huyn ever got a “Hey can we get one of those selfies with the thumbs up?” Rep Huyn may give a thumbs up in his pictures but Severin is (Southern Illinois) FAMOUS for it. Plus, I have one with the thumb so I’m biased.
- West Side the Best Side - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 12:17 pm:
Couldn’t vote. Looking at all those thumbs up pics gave me a flashback to Trumpelstiltscam and Beetle Bailey and it was just too traumatic.
- Buford - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 12:19 pm:
In the spirit of bipartisanship, can we got a Huyhn/Severin combined thumbs up photo?
- Hoosier Dad - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 1:08 pm:
Whenever I see politicians doing the thumbs up picture, I think of Mike Braun’s killer ad from his Senate campaign showing his two opponents dressing alike and doing the thumbs up . https://www.politico.com/video/2018/04/30/mike-braun-for-indiana-ad-whats-the-difference-065956

Not to nitpick Isabel, but the selfie with Mayor Brandon is more of a Shaka sign
- Michelle Flaherty - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 2:09 pm:
I’m impressed that Severin’s flip phone takes such vivid pictures.
- First - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 2:25 pm:
I’m sorry, but it’s Rep. Huynh and it’s not even close. Sure, Severin might have more experience, but when you got it you got it, and Huynh’s got IT.
- Huh? - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 3:47 pm:
Won’t ever again for for someone with a “R” after their name. That being said, Rep. Huynh’s confident smile in the last picture is a winner.
- Lurker - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 4:53 pm:
I voted for Huynh. I just don’t see Severin being able to take a 4 person selfie and get his thumbs-up centered in the pic. That’s talent(bp)
- fs - Wednesday, Dec 13, 23 @ 5:39 pm:
Politically, l agree with him on very little…but, let’s be honest, Rep Huynh knows how to work the camera here.
