Yeeouch indeed.

Perfect “the rules don’t apply to me” match for Trump.

Careful, today’s GOP voter is likely to see this as savvy on her part.

Enjoy the clink.

Just curious though… is Rodney Davis’s record on union issues good enough to warrant this help?

Well according to the Plumbers and Pipefitters, yes.

Miller is so bad that Davis doesn’t have to have a good Union record to warrant support. However , do think that he did at least support the UMWA on a retirement issue. Rate the Ad : ” On Target “

In the GOP I remember, those items would have disqualified her from office. Hopefully today’s GOP ousts her.

She never would have been elected in the first place under the GOP you remember.

Has there been any polling in this race? Congressional ads are usually over the top anyway, but based on this one it seems Rodney is a bit worried.

Rodney has a decent track record for bringing infrastructure dollars back to his district so the union support isn’t that surprising in a ruby red district. Davis went from anti-45 in 2016 to a state chair in 2020. A savvy politician reads the room but I believe that his shift further right has a lot to do with getting shot at during that ballgame.

Not paying taxes will likely get her a few more votes in her district sadly. Especially based on those whacky poll results from the earlier thread.

Whelp, Not sure if this ad helps or hurts miller (which is strange to say) but jail would be a nice place for her and her hubby.

Trump all but seems to be coming to the district.

Quincy seems to the landing spot for now for the rally.

If he’s bothering to come that means Miller is a whole lot closer than not to ousting Davis.
