Cotton is just supporting and improving on the new GOPs methods of lies and disinformation. He's also an experienced debater, an attorney himself, and has the morals like the rest of the new GOP.
His act was only for political gains and creating sound bites to use against the dems in the upcoming elections. That was his only goal. The cities that he named on crime were all in swing states and where there will be heavy political fights. You think he would say true statistical data that many of the increased crime rates are in Republican controlled areas? Not a chance. The new GOP are looking for anything to get an edge and to harp on. The "dems are soft on crime" was the intended thoughts to impress.
The fast succession of crime data questioning was only to try to get Jackson tripped up and some reactive mistake on her part.
He did get at least one good political sound bite that we will see repeated out of context and manipulated. That was when she answered that there were no victims to contact when Cotton asked her if she contacted the victims before resentencing the particular case. That will be portrayed that she thinks drugs are a victimless crime and just one more crime that she is "soft" on.
There's other sound bites they will use and the GOPs only reason for their attacks and line of questioning. Politicians like Cotton are some of the best on their team to do that. Cotton did the job that was given to him the best that could be done I guess. Obnoxiousness and whiny are just a small part of the degrading traits that the new GOP are and succeeding at using.
