Gov Mills: Inflation just a “distraction”

Janet Mills revealed the Democratic party’s secret campaign strategy out loud yesterday.

Mills dismissed the concerns of Mainers who are truly worried about inflation as just a “distraction,” disclosing that she has no interest or concern about the severe problem that will leave many Mainers struggling to keep their homes warm this winter, put food on the table or fill up their car’s gas tank once the election is over.

No wonder Mills signed into law a bill that raised families’ grocery bills by nearly $60 a month.

“Janet Mills is no friend of working Mainers or struggling seniors, and these comments reveal that all her talk about helping struggling people is just lip service,” said RGA spokesman Will Reinert. “Paul LePage saved the state during the darkest days of the Great Recession, and he will lead the state to new heights if elected again.”
