Republican Sen. Josh Hawley's conduct during Trump's second impeachment trial enraged viewers this afternoon after he was seen kicking back with his feet up and ignoring the proceedings even though he's a juror on the case.
Reporters covering the trial spotted Hawley sitting in the gallery of the Senate chamber instead of on the floor. NBC News' Garrett Haake tweeted that he saw the Missouri senator "sitting up in the gallery with his feet up on the seat in front of him, reviewing paperwork, throughout the trial."
"Not once has he paid attention to the impeachment trial," reporter Hugo Lowell noted.
CNN congressional correspondent Manu Raju spoke to Hawley, who had this to say about his choice to sit upstairs: "I can basically see the back of their heads. But I sort of picked a spot where I can look right down on them, I can see the TV, and it's interesting."

We should require that they earn it, same as we have to.
2000 hours of productive work/year. Or paid pro-rata.
Campaigning is not productive work!
