'Are you rapping?' GOP lawmaker smears Hakeem Jeffries' historic floor speech

Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) mocked House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries' (D-NY) historic speech on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives by suggesting he was "rapping."

Ogles made the remarks Thursday on The Benny Show as Jeffries was still speaking about President Donald Trump's massive spending bill that cuts Medicaid and SNAP benefits.

"Your response to that, Congressman?" Johnson asked.

"Well, when I listen to Hakeem Jeffries, it drives me bananas," Ogles said in a mocking tone. "I mean, come on, just talk, man."

"I know he can talk, I've heard him on the House floor, you know, but this whole fake thing that he does, and his hands, and he does this, like, alright, are you doing sign language?" he added. "Are you rapping? Are you trying to talk to us? Pick a lane and just do it, right?"
