Trib: Jeers To Chauvinistic Reitz, Too

Marty Trillhaase/Lewiston Tribune also offered Jeers … to Chuck Reitz: Co-chairman of the GOP convention’s credentials committee, the Shoshone County Republican had this to say to a group of women who didn’t like the way delegates from Ada, Bannock and Power counties had been stripped of their votes: “Just hold on, take a breath and go refresh your lipstick.” Where is this guy coming from? A “Mad Men” episode? Dallas circa 1969? Salt Lake City a decade later? No. Moscow, 2014.

Question: How did this guy become co-chairman of the GOP convention’s credentials committee?
