Trump & Ryan Reward Paulsen for His Unflinching Loyalty
Erik Paulsen’s payoff for his unflinching loyalty to Washington Republicans & voting with President Trump nearly 98 percent of the time keeps on coming.
Late last night, Paulsen received the seal of approval from tweeter-in-Chief, President Trump:
“Congressman Erik Paulsen of the Great State of Minnesota has done a fantastic job in cutting Taxes and Job Killing Regulations,” tweeted President Trump. “Hard working and very smart. Keep Erik in Congress. He has my Strong Endorsement!”
The tweet came just hours after Speaker Paul Ryan traveled to Minnesota to campaign with Paulsen and raise money for his struggling reelection bid.
“Erik Paulsen has worked hard over the last two years to earn this glowing endorsement from President Trump, voting with him nearly 98% of the time” said DFL Chair Ken Martin. “Congressman Paulsen can lie about being an independent voice all he wants, but the proof is in his record and his loyalty to Trump.
“Erik Paulsen has voted to raise Minnesotans’ health care costs and for a trillion dollar tax break for billionaires and corporations. He’s taken every opportunity to side with Trump and Washington Republicans at the expense of Minnesota families. Now that he sees that the millions of dollars he’s raked in from special interests won’t be enough to get him re-elected, he’s counting on his boss in Washington to save him.”
