SPOTTED: Tom Kean Jr. Avoiding Local Press At District Events

“Regularly ignoring voters seems a sure path to political defeat”

Spotted: Tom Kean Jr. — who isn’t “known to make many public appearances” because he’s “not comfortable” answering questions — has resorted to excluding local media from his district events.

According to the New Jersey Hill Media Group, Kean decided not to invite press to a roundtable he held last week. While this strategy is nothing new for the vulnerable freshman Republican, in recent months he has received widespread criticism over his “failure to hold town halls and directly face his constituents.”

Here are three questions “Cricket Kean” must answer: 

  1. Do you stand with every Republican presidential candidate who supports a national abortion ban?
  2. Will you back Donald Trump as the Republican nominee, even if he’s convicted?
  3. Do you agree with your father that it “takes courage” for Chris Christie to attack the Republican frontrunner and the MAGA base?
