This upcoming election really sucks.. It’s forcing me to root for RINOs like Susan Collins of all people. But the alternative, Troy Jackson, the dude who impregnated his cousin is a million times worse than even Collins…. Janet Mills, the outgoing failed governor of Maine saw this and is refusing to endorse Jackass Jackson.

I can absolutely understand why @JanetMillsforME won’t endorse
Troy Jackson.She governed Maine while Jackson spent years making governing Maine harder.
Mills believed in fiscal restraint when revenues were high because responsible governors understand that good times don’t last forever. Jackson kept demanding more spending, and at one point tried to load roughly $100 MILLION of additional spending onto an emergency storm recovery measure.
Mills said no. Good. She did the right thing.There is also an issue with Jackson’s temper tantrums. There were reported screaming matches with fellow Democrats, a water bottle thrown during one confrontation, and an episode so heated that the Democratic House speaker reportedly ordered him out of her office.
He isn’t “fighting for working people, and he is exhausting nearly everyone who has to work with him.
Don’t be fooled into thinking of Jackson as an outsider woodsman. He has spent years at the very top of Augusta politics and once led a Democratic PAC that took money from pharmaceutical, tobacco, and gambling interests, while now conveniently campaigning against corporate political money.
Janet Mills is hardly some right wing ideologue. She’s a Democrat who understands budgets, institutions, compromise, and the difference between governing and performing.
When a Democratic governor who worked beside Troy Jackson for YEARS declines to endorse him, the question isn’t, “What’s wrong with Janet Mills?”
The question is, “What does Janet Mills know about Troy Jackson that Maine voters should be paying attention to?”
