Jim Jordan Gets Flustered As Simple Question Turns Awkward On 60 Minutes

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) seemed to have an uncomfortable moment on 60 Minutes during Sunday nights segment on social media disinformation. 

Jordan argued against social media companies taking down inaccurate posts, saying the American people should figure out whats true and whats not. 

What about this idea that the 2020 election was stolen? asked correspondent Lesley Stahl . You think that these companies should allow people to say that and that individuals can make up their own mind. 

Ive not said that, said Jordan, who is on the record pushing conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. What Ive said is there were concerns about the 2020 election; I think Americans agree with that.

No, they dont, said Stahl.

You dont think they think there were concerns with the 2020 election? he said. 

Most people dont question the result, thats all Im saying, Stahl said.

Fair enough, said Jordan.

Then it got awkward. 

They dont question whether Biden won or not, she said.

Jordan was silent.

Right? she asked. 

Jordan remained silent.

Right? she asked again.

Jordan looked puzzled. 

Most people dont question the outcome, she said.

Right, Jordan agreed. 

Jordan was among multiple GOP lawmakers who helped push Trumps conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and objected to the election results in Congress as part of a push to slow or stop the certification. 

Trump rewarded Jordan with the Presidential Medal Of Freedom  before leaving office.
