| As prices skyrocket across the lower Hudson Valley and costs surge at the gas pump thanks to the reckless war in Iran, Donald Trump bragged that, “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation.”
When asked by Bloomberg to respond to this tone-deaf and alarming comment, MAGA lapdog Mike Lawler rushed to lie to New Yorkers in Trump’s defense, saying, “Of course, he cares about the cost to Americans, and of course, he is thinking about that as we make policy decisions.”
Mike Lawler would rather defend Trump and gaslight Hudson Valley families already getting hammered at the gas pump, grocery store, and doctor’s office than fight to lower costs for his own constituents.
REMINDER: Lawler has endorsed Trump’s reckless cost-raising war every chance he gets, recently arguing it was a “righteous decision” and standing by as Donald Trump’s Treasury secretary dismissed the pain Hudson Valley families are feeling at the pump as a “blip.”
DCCC Spokesperson Riya Vashi:
“Donald Trump just told Hudson Valley families that he doesn’t think about whether they can afford gas or groceries, and Mike Lawler’s response was to lie about what happened. Lawler would rather lie for Donald Trump than stand up for his own constituents, and it’s going to cost him in November.” |
