I need some laughs (11 minutes)

Miller-Meeks did something really strange last week. Really cowardly. So cowardly that if you are looking for an excuse to vote for anyone else this may be it. She had a tele-town hall and somehow avoided letting suspected Democrats of knowing that it was taking place. Is she that scared of Democrats? Is she that scared of defending her unpopular positions? 

We know she is that scared of Donald Trump. It is becoming increasingly clear that Trump’s policies are extremely unpopular in the first district. Based on the fear that MAGA congress critters around the country have of participating in town halls. MMM is not the only MAGA in that boat.

So if she won’t come to you, then you must go to her – and Ashley Hinson, Zach Nunn, Randy Feenstra, Joni Ernst and old Chuckles Grassley! And don’t just call their Washington numbers – call their Iowa offices also. In fact if you have an office in a town near you drop in and ask the staff to relay some questions for you and tell them you will await their call or maybe even stop back in. It’s an Iowa neighborly thing.
