Tester Denies Tax Cut Benefit
In an pre-election debate, Sen. Jon Tester, D-Montana, refused to say the tax cut bill has benefited Americans. He says it helped out rich people but not the majority of Americans. If you’re like most Montanans, and saw a refund approaching $2,500 in 2017, be sure to support Tester’s Republican opponent — Matt Rosendale.
In other election news, Andrew Gillum, the Democratic candidate for governor of Florida, has dropped one of his campaign staffers after he was found to have issued a Tweet calling for the assassination of President Donald Trump. The offensive post came from Manny Orozco-Ballestas, who issued a Tweet in 2013, declaring “@realDonaldTrump: you need to be executed.”
The Tampa Bay Times also ran a photo of the Gillum staffer wearing a shirt depicting a map of the United States, with red-colored states indicating ones that went for President Trump in the 2016 election.
On the shirt, a key provided below the map explains that the red states refer to “Dumbf—istan,” while the blue refer to the “United States of America.”
