Politician’s response to his colleague touching his arm is most bizarre thing you’ll see this week
Here’s Republican politician Daryl Metcalfe letting everyone know that he is definitely not gay after Democrat Matt Bradford briefly touched him on the arm this week.
What a strange moment. Matt Bradford’s married with two kids, in case anyone’s interested.
Not everyone thought he was protesting too much.
I see both sides here. You're entitled to tell someone not to touch you. Just don't make it a homophobic thing.

are you serious? how can anyone in their right mind defend that guy? All he did was touch his arm because he wanted to communicate comaraderie in a professional setting. I have never in my life seen someone so disrespected in a work place so seriously

To be fair he’s only doing what most “liberal” woman seem to be doing at any show of affection nowadays. #HimToo

He is, and he's entitled to. He added in the homophobia all by himself though.

Here it is again, with easier to read subtitles.
"I'm a heterosexual. I love my wife… keep your hands to yourself."

Looks like they’ve got a bit of history.
