Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. Like many in our region, we have voted for Democrats over many decades. We have watched as our constituents’ jobs left not only the Iron Range, but our country,” the group of mayors said. “By putting tariffs on our products and supporting bad trade deals, politicians like Joe Biden did nothing to help the working class. We lost thousands of jobs, and generations of young people have left the Iron Range in order to provide for their families with good paying jobs elsewhere.” You know the denying Dems will never admit to reading this post. If they do read it, their brainwashed minds will just call you a liar and post 100 laughing emojis. The laughing emoji is their signature reply when faced with facts that don't fit into their warped world.
Of course you knew I would respond as soon as I was able to find out a little bit about these Mayors.
Chris Swanson is the mayor of a town with a population of about 3,700 constituents. Not a huge voting base I would say. He's up for reelection this year.
Larry Cuffe is the mayor of a town the has been busy approving the massage license for two requester, training for 2 city employees and allowing TNT Fireworks & Generous Jerry's Fireworks to sell their product within the city limits with a Transient Merchant application. They also approved a number of variance request for construction. I'm sure all 8,000 residents are happy.
John Champa has used funds from the car act to spend 12k for masks to be used in schools & the community. His city has also approved a number of variances & to upgrade traffic lights to LED grade on all 5 of their intersections.
Chuck Novack is up for reelection & needs the support of his 3,400 residents. They have spent 43k of the 256k the city on disinfectant equipment with other planned for city overtime & laptops to be used remotely by employees.
Robert V.... had the honor of speaking @ RNC, so no surprise here.
Andrea Zupavich is the mayor of about 1500 residents. They approved a new garbage contract & it's a great place for fishing.
So we are talking about 6 mayors with about 10k constituents. I'm sure they are all nice little towns but is this supposed to scare the Democratic party?
You guys are so lazy, you didn't even research these people and the political power they may or may not yield. So instead of posting a laughing emoji, this is more appropriate.
