A video of two Republican Senators doing a push-up contest went viral, and unsurprisingly, the internet had a lot to say about it.
During the Republican convention in Iowa, Tom Cotton of Arkansas and Chuck Grassley of Iowa decided to get down and do 22 push-ups in memoriam of the 22 veterans who commit suicide every day.
While the suicide rates of veterans in the U.S. is a deeply important cause to raise awareness around, many were perplexed by how the push-up contest was anything but a weird flex of masculinity.
