You know it's bad for an elected official when their two choices after doing something REALLY stupid are admitting it was stupid OR having to claim they were too stupid to know any better. It's ESPECIALLY bad when they go the route of being too stupid to know F-I-R-E doesn't actually spell door.
But that's basically the gist of Jamaal Bowman's statement about why he pulled the fire alarm.
Take a look at this embarrassing nonsense:

If someone like MTG or Lauren Boebert had done this, the media would be accusing them of trying to somehow help Trump BUT since Bowman is a Democrat it's (D)ifferent.
It's honestly almost as if they expect Democrats to be dumber or something.
Yeah, that's it.
Guess how many people AREN'T buying into Bowman's statement:
Does anyone believe the “I thought the fire alarm would open the door” line? pic.twitter.com/lPb7zUDCo6

Nope.
Ok, that's not fair - there are a few really stupid people on the Left who are trying to somehow defend this hot mess but it's not going anywhere. No one with an actual functioning brain in their heads believes this.
Congressman Jamaal Bowman, who doesn’t give his political opponents the benefit of the doubt, is asking his political opponents to give him the benefit of the doubt https://t.co/5H8cwx6tj2

Whoever put this statement out, or gave legal advice on it, or tried to cover it up with lies, is part of a criminal conspiracy to interfere with the operations of our revered Congress. RICO charges for all involved! Isn’t that how it works? https://t.co/4tBNLHZeeW

Simply amazing. Imagine how much more respect he would get if he said “yup, I did it, bad move, but I tried” as opposed to assuming every American is on acid and will believe this messy diaper of a story. https://t.co/F4RUt512QN

Pretty sure he means amazing in a really really really horrible way here.

Basically, yeah.
Breaking ... Jamaal Bowman says he believes fire alarms are door openers. - 😂😂😂 What a liar. https://t.co/p2mmnLOsRN

Literal 4 year old children know what a fire alarm does.

Prison for 20 years right next to the J6 prisoners. https://t.co/3WgcTYaji4
Ironically, Bowman used to be a principal so you'd think he would RECOGNIZE a freakin' fire alarm. Heh.

I grabbed her boobs, mistakenly thinking that they would open the door. I sincerely apologize for any confusion this has caused. https://t.co/0siaip7Ruu pic.twitter.com/CFsKH1G70d
We laughed far harder at this than we should have.
Stunning that a former elementary school principal has the comprehension skills of a flea.

The signage could not have been more clear. You engaged in an attempt to interfere with Congressional business... a crime, and according to those who have recently been convicted of this… https://t.co/iw4MH9z2RZ
The only thing stupider than Jamaal Bowman is a Jamaal Bowman constituent... which is why he'll get a pass. https://t.co/qPUUrDrLUv

I knew never to pull a fire alarm for no reason because my mom would have beat my natural black ass if I ever did such a thing.

Jamaal knew what he was doing. https://t.co/W4wLWTtRjE
He absolutely did.
He should be charged for it.
We're, however, not holding our breath.
