I’m not sure of the actual legality but it’s damned sure wrong.
The MAGA cult should not have to threaten members of their own party to get their way. I hate to break it to you but that’s fascist behavior.

That’s called representative government. If the representative isn’t acting to represent the views of his/her constituency then they get voted out. Simple as that, nothing fascist about and certainly nothing wrong with reminding representatives that their position relies on it. Ask Liz Cheney how it works, surely she’ll recall what happens when you go against the will of the people who put you there.
