“People will call me a radical for believing that, you know, you should be a Christian, you should get married young, you should have as many kids as possible, you should be as successful as you possibly can,” he said on Monday. “They’ll say I’m an extremist for that.”
“And I just look at ’em and said: How can you believe that?” he said.
Cawthorn’s political career has been marked by multiple controversies. Prior to his election last November, several women he went to college with accused him of sexual misconduct. In February, he attempted to board a plane with a gun and a loaded magazine. More recently, Cawthorn has positioned himself as an anti-mask, anti-vaccine firebrand, and has attended school board meetings across North Carolina to advocate against mask and vaccine mandates.
In April, Cawthorn missed 15 votes in Congress while away on honeymoon, which he defended by saying he was fulfilling his “service as a husband.”
Two days before his divorce announcement, Cawthorn had advocated for marrying young at the “Americafest” conference run by Turning Point USA.
