Tester no good

October 24, 2018 by Guest Post

By Laurie A. Jakober, Darby

I cannot believe that some of you trust CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS and BBC news to give you accurate and complete reporting in an unbiased form. I have never in my lifetime seen such a complete and detailed false narrative, spread by 90% of the media in our country. Since November 2016 there have been over 450, yes, 450 separate acts of violence toward conservatives and Trump supporters. This list includes murder, assault on individuals 15 to 69 yoa, death threats, vandalism, cars set on fire, hate speech, robbery, a Navy veteran’s home torched, a Trump supporter who was refused service in a restaurant (MLK would not be proud), and a UPS driver in NY who was shot and killed because a man mistook him for President Trump.

Look it up and ask yourself one question. Why isn’t the media reporting any of this prejudice and violence? Go to breitbart.com to see the list that continues to grow. Go to Veritas.com and watch democrats lie about their views to get votes. Then do some research before you vote.

Mr. Jon Tester is now using his wife and veterans to get votes! Too bad he is still the biggest recipient of lobbyist money in Washington D.C.

As a veteran, I personally contacted Jon Tester when I discovered that my VA medical records had been altered. I received zero assistance. I agree with Mr. Rosendale regarding veteran facilities. I don’t want any more facilities and clinics until we can get the ones we already have working properly. This past year, it took me 10 months to get physical therapy for a service connected disability! Think about that! On two other occasions, I was unable to get the care I needed and paid for it out of my own pocket. Mr. Tester always helps a token few veterans and then uses them like poster children in campaign ads but when it comes to the overall efficiency of the VA it is so much worse than when he took office.

Labeling Mr. Rosendale because he is from Maryland is discriminatory and immature. Are we supposed to hate someone because of where they’re from? Really? That doesn’t sound like someone who votes for open borders like Jon Tester does. I want more Americans and businesses to move here and I often brag about our great state.

Tester calls Matt Rosendale a millionaire, when he is a millionaire himself, thanks to all that lobbyist money. Has anyone seen a picture of Tester’s million-dollar house in Washington D.C. yet?

Sorry Jon, after you shamed and ruined Admiral Jackson’s chance of heading up the Department of Veteran’s Affairs based on little to no evidence, you lost my vote. Your vote against Judge Kavanaugh confirmed it.

I remember how I got here, I remember exactly where I am, I have credible witnesses to confirm my story, and you are not good for my America.
