I can only speculate, but I have seen this linked on social media dozens of times, often including that detail of "shutting down an extremely hostile senator" in the caption. So whether or not one interprets the senator as rude or hostile, people are getting exposed to that idea pretty regularly.

That isn't a justification. "I heard someone else say it" doesn't remove one's own personal accountability for saying it as well.

I imagine this is a sentiment that Mr. Rogers would agree with.
