a $3.5 trillion dumb idea

October 5, 2017

Rick Nolan just can’t help himself. Despite representing a district that overwhelmingly voted for Trump, he continues to move dangerously left.

The Bernie Sanders single-payer warrior just voted for the Progressive Caucus Budget.

What does this vote do? Other than seriously endanger his chances for reelection?

  • Increases spending by $3.5 trillion
  • Allows Minnesota to implement single-payer health care
  • Hikes up the death tax on small business owners
  • Gives DC bureaucrats a pay raise
  • Literally guts defense funding for the war on terror
  • Adds a carbon tax on hardworking Minnesota families
  • Increases prices at the gas pump…for hardworking Minnesota families

The Good News: Radical Rick will stay in the good graces of his mentors, Nancy Pelosi and Bernie Sanders.

The Bad News (for him): actual voters in the Iron Range would have roundly rejected this budget…much like they will do to Rick himself next November.
