Jacobs should hold genuine town halls without pre-selected callers

Congressman Chris Jacobs is holding another phony phone town hall tonight (9/8/21). The idea is to have residents call into an event hosted by Mr. Jacobs and have Mr. Jacobs answer questions.

But based on past ones, this event will have callers pre-selected to have callers praise Mr. Jacobs and criticize Democrats. The entire event is staged as a love-in for Mr. Jacobs.

Why does Mr. Jacobs feel so insecure that he has to stage these love-ins instead of holding a genuine open town-hall meeting? Why is Mr. Jacobs so afraid of meeting his constituents?
