No! Youāre the imbecile!
besides paying it back along with a hefty fine,
hope he becomes trumps bunk buddy at the no go hotel someday.
Hey, whatās so surprising about one aging corrupt fat slob supporting another aging corrupt fat slob?
Manus manum lavat ā¦ but they never get clean.
And remember, this is when he was blocking the Medicaid expansion (first by vetoing the legislature, then by slow-walking the referendum passed overwhelmingly by voters). Words fail in describing that disgusting man.
At least we have Janet Mills now in Maine. She has been pitch perfect so far. And LePage led to ranked choice, which is a fantastic means of bringing more views and civility into the process.
If you know how tight Mainers are with money (and how tight money is for most Mainers), you know this is an astronomical sum to the people there.
Mainers votes this POS for governor twice, they had it coming.
This could be VERY concerning! Let us wait for the informed opinion of Grand Dame Susan Collins before we pass judgment on this matter. Or perhaps she is too busy defending another dick-waver like she did during the Supreme Court nomination.
OK, but how tall is Paul LePage?
Well, it seems to me that the people of Maine ought to send the imbecile who was their āGuvānerā a nice big bill and get some or all of that tax money back. Course it may take a while ta get back ta Maine from Florida or wherever heās put the rock he crawls out from under every morning.
I am happy that you no longer have this corrupt jerk as your governor. With any luck, youāll replace that worthless Senator Collins with a Democrat who has a spine and speaks truth to power.
Filet mignon with catsup?
Just deduct the amount he squandered further enriching Trump from any state pension heās receiving from his mis-service as Maineās Governor. Let him take the state to court to get that money back when itās collected through attaching his pension payments.
Oh yeahā¦why arenāt ANY of us surprised?
I see TPM staff are all out getting mattresses on this Presidentsā Day. Ya think theyāll be back before lunch?
Yes, while Paul LePage and hack head of Maineās Health & Human Services (Mary Mayhew) were slashing the budget for our stateās most vulnerable and needy citizens (children in our foster care system), he and his staff including his 2 daughters), were staying at the most expensive hotel in Washington DCā¦Trump International.
Lepageās cuts at HHS have been directly blamed for several deaths of CHILDREN in our public system due to lack of resources. LePage slashed the budget leaving the agencies with inadequate staff to meet its state charter to the people. At the same time, LePage is making unnecessary trips to DC and staying at trumpās very very expensive hotelā¦something no previous Maine Governor has ever done. LePge ignored our state travel policiesā¦and spent like a drunken sailor.
LePage and Mayhew have blood on their handsā¦while spending tax payer money keeping Trump and his 2 grease ball sons happy.
Republicans love huge government spending when it is on themselvesā¦but when it comes to the poor, veterans, seniors, and the needyā¦they cut and cutā¦even when it is Gov. Paul LePage who as a young boy growing up in Lewiston he was saved by public assistance. Now LePage has cut the very public programs that saved himā¦
LePage, like most Republicans and Trump, are amoralā¦unfit for public office.
Fat flatulent fiscal & financial fraud.
"spent āhundreds of dollars on filet mignon or other expensive menu items at the restaurant in the Trump hotel.ā
my only consolation was that it was probably the worst āfilet mignonā they had ever eaten
I like Mills too. I LOVED coming across the bridge from Portsmouth to see the Welcome Home sign instead of the dumb ā open for businessā trope that leload had put up. We need to work on Susie next.
So glad he is gone.
