Jerry Nadler craps his pants

Don't trust a fart!

Video of Congressman Jerry Nadler looking extremely uncomfortable while exiting a press conference with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on September 23 went viral online. Nadler, who represents New York’s 10th Congressional District, sparked concerns for his health after viewers watched his unstable walk while leaving the podium.

However, rumors started to swirl that the cause of the 73-year-old’s loss of balance and odd gait was from pooping his pants shortly after the conservative political blog, The RedState, published an article with the headline asking, “Did Jerry Nadler Crap Himself on Live TV?”

In the video, Nadler, who also serves as the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, is speaking out on introducing new legislation called the “Protecting our Democracy” Act when he suddenly grabs the side of the podium. He then walks off the stage appearing quite disoriented and walking extremely tepidly.

Shortly afterward, the video circulated Twitter with thousands of users online sharing the same rumored conclusion — that Nadler “s*** his pants.” The term “poop his pants” also started to trend nationally on Google Search.
