Madison Cawthorn Responds to Leaked Photos of Him Wearing Women's Lingerie

Madison Cawthorn is breaking his silence on those leaked photos.

Last week, Politico posted photos of the 26-year-old Republican congressman from North Carolina wearing women’s lingerie while he appears to be partying on a cruise ship.

The news site shared in an exclusive story and reported that the date the photos were taken is unclear, but they appear to have been taken after his car accident in 2014. The photos were provided to the outlet by someone who was formerly close to Cawthorn and his campaign.

Shortly after the photos were posted, Cawthorn took to social media to respond, blaming the leak on his Democratic opponents, despite no evidence of their role.

“I guess the left thinks goofy vacation photos during a game on a cruise (taken waaay before I ran for Congress) is going to somehow hurt me? They’re running out of things to throw at me…” Cawthorn tweeted.

He also asked followers to share their “most embarrassing vacay photos in the replies.”

A man wearing women’s lingerie should not be controversial, but when someone like Cawthorn is caught wearing clothing like that, it is. This is due to the things he has said in the past about his views.

Just the other day, he tweeted about his views on gender, saying, “There’s only one God and two genders.”

During an interview on the Warrior Poet Podcast from last month, Cawthorn made comments about alleged orgies and drug use among his Washington, D.C. colleagues.
