Voters boo Nebraska Republican over Musk, Ukraine, Trump tariffs during raucous town hall

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : "We need actual action; we need actual cybersecurity experts to go in and make sure that our government is secure because Trump is in the pocket of Putin, and you are letting him continue.
52% : "Here's what I want to do tonight: I want you to feel comfortable telling me what you want me to know, but when somebody else is on the microphone or when I'm interacting with somebody, let's let these students from Columbus public schools get an education in what our democracy is all about, and that is you telling me what you think, but I need an opportunity to tell you or give you an answer, and then you can ultimately decide if you're pleased with that or not."
51% : "They went in and they had read write access to the agencies, and that is a huge national security threat." "The fact that you have not done anything to stand up to him, and this talk of I support Trump, I support Elon Musk, that's not enough, okay," she added.
50% : The audience at Tuesday night's town hall grew particularly angry during conversations surrounding Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which the tech billionaire oversees.
44% : During another moment, an attendee pressed Flood on what he has done to push back on Musk and Trump.
43% : "Congressman Flood, I just heard you in the last few minutes say that you support NATO, that you will not allow cuts to Social Security, that you support Ukraine, but talk is cheap," the individual said.
41% : Flood sought to keep the town hall civil, at one point telling the crowd, "Let's remain calm," when shouting broke out during his response to a question about cutting Medicare.
33% : As Flood argued that Trump "successfully" used tariffs during his first term, the crowd broke out in screams.
28% : " In one of the rowdiest moments, an attendee criticized Flood for calling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's conduct "disrespectful" after his tense meeting with Trump last month.
27% : There was also significant pushback from the audience when Flood was pressed on tariffs Trump has placed -- and threatened to impose -- on countries, rising prices nationwide, and the drop in the stock market.
22% : "I want to say shame for your comment, your quote that you said, 'President Zelensky's approach today was disrespectful to President Trump and undermines the goal of bringing peace' and that.
