WHEN CONGRESSMAN JOHN ROSE TOOK THE MIC ON THE HOUSE FLOOR ON MONDAY – HE DID NOT EXPECT HIS SPEECH TO GO VIRAL. BUT THANKS TO HIS 6-YEAR-old SON — IT DID JUST THAT.

AS THE TENNESSEE LAWMAKER WAS DELIVERING HIS SPEECH CRITICIZING LAST WEEK’S VERDICT IN FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP’S TRIAL – CAMERAS CAPTURED HIS YOUNG SON STARTING TO MAKE NOT-SO SERIOUS FACES BEHIND HIS DAD.

REP. JOHN ROSE | R-TN

“Regardless of one’s opinion of the current nominee, we’d be well-served to remember the long and cherished tradition we have in this country of settling our political differences at the ballot box.”

AFTER THE SPEECH WAS BROADCAST LIVE ON C-SPAN — the boy’s FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AND HAND GESTURES SOON TURNED INTO COUNTLESS MEMES AND VIDEOS  — TURNING THE RECENT KINDERGARTEN GRADUATE INTO A SOCIAL MEDIA STAR.

CONGRESSMAN ROSE SAYS his son IS WITH HIM FOR THE WEEK – AND IN A SOCIAL MEDIA POST OF HIS OWN – EXPLAINED THE ORIGINS OF HIS SON’S BEHAVIOR – SAYING “THIS IS WHAT I GET FOR TELLING MY SON “GUY” TO SMILE AT THE CAMERA FOR HIS LITTLE BROTHER.”
