COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX) — Bernie Moreno won’t talk about the immigrants in Springfield, even though President Donald Trump moved up his schedule to deport immigrants on Wednesday.
The Republican Senate candidate hasn’t talked about abortion since he secretly recorded himself saying last month that women over 50 don’t care about the issue, but his Democratic opponent, Sen. Sherrod Brown, has spoken up about it. has become an issue in the election campaign.
And for him and two other speakers, U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan of Urbana and Secretary of State Frank, Ohio’s top elections official, said staff at the facility where he spoke promoted Moreno. Despite preparing for a press conference, he did not speak to reporters. LaRose.
But with less than a week to go until Ohioans begin voting absentee, Moreno announced that by allowing biological males to compete with females and using green energy instead of coal. He expressed his opinion that it shows America’s weakness.
“Do you think that in China, legislators, there is a discussion about men being able to participate in women’s sports? Do you think that there is such a discussion in China?…
“By the way, while we are destroying coal-fired power plants and crippling the energy industry, they are building coal-fired power plants every week.
“They’re laughing at us.”
“Isn’t it about time we start taking care of our own people?”
The Brown v. Moreno election is the most expensive in the nation, largely because control of the Senate could depend on the outcome.
The incumbent did not conduct any public campaign activities today. But Mr. Brown and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren accused him of threatening to move the company’s longtime headquarters from Pittsburgh and eliminate thousands of jobs if its merger with Japanese steelmaker Japan fails. , sent a scathing letter to the president of U.S. Steel. Mr. Brown and the United Steelworkers are firmly opposed to the merger.
Foreign countries made up the bulk of Moreno’s address to about 75 supporters on the Near East Side.
“Why is there a government in Washington, D.C., so obsessed with sending hundreds of billions of dollars to foreign countries to help build foreign communities, schools, and hospitals?” Moreno asked.
Asked for details about Moreno’s remarks, a spokesperson said Moreno was referring to U.S. aid to Ukraine. He cited a bipartisan group that put the amount of aid at $175 billion as of May. However, she did not provide the requested details to support Moreno’s other statements.
“Yet they take our money and give it to foreigners here in America, who house them better than Americans, and feed them better than they feed Americans. They pay better health care than Americans receive, but that doesn’t mean we’re not a caring country, but we care about our own people. Isn’t it time?”
Turning the tables, Moreno compares Brown to a broken-down car dealer.
Moreno said he thinks of Brown as an old, failed owner of a car dealership. Just like the managers I fired when I bought the store.
“So what we have to do is always change management,” Moreno told the crowd.
Suddenly, he said, dealers would be thriving.
“And I remember Washington. There are people like Sherrod Brown who have been there for a long time.”
Mr. Brown has served in the Senate and House of Representatives for nearly 30 years.
Ironically, Brown spent much of his campaign portraying what he called Moreno’s unethical management and mistreatment of workers at the dealership.
