Glencoe Republican Glenn Gruenhagen isn't just spending his time these days pushing a bill that would limit everyone's bathroom use to their 'biological sex,' he's also warning that Democrats voting for Democratic candidates leads to Democrats gaining power.
The Hutchinson Leader's Terry Davis reports in Republicans gathered in numbers at county convention:
He urged rural Republicans to talk to friends who are Democrats to impress upon them that voting in rural Democrats to the Legislature just empowers Twin Cities Democrats, who he called “radical leftists.”
Nice place-baiting there. Gruenhagen isn't the only McLeod County Republican mortified by the wicked ways of the opposing party. State Senator Scott Newman is deeply alarmed by young folks Feeling The Bern. Davis reports:
At the national level, Newman said he doesn’t understand why so many young people are supporting Democrat Bernie Sanders, who he called a socialist.
“They are literally being robbed of the American dream,” Newman said.
Those young people supporting Sanders likely agree about the American dream part, but like Sanders, pick a different suspect out of the lineup than Newman.
