Leora Levy Crushes 37-year Career Politician at Debate
GREENWICH, CT - Tonight, political outsider and Republican challenger Leora Levy won the only televised debate against her opponent and 37-year career politician Dick Blumenthal. While in Rocky Hill, Levy highlighted Blumenthal’s consistent rubber stamp on Joe Biden’s reckless spending, open borders, and weak on crime agenda.
During the debate:
Economy
Dick Blumenthal graded the economy “ongoing” and said Joe Biden and he needed more time.
Reality check: Leora Levy gave the Blumenthal-Biden economy an F, rightfully so because Americans don’t have more time to pay their bills. “He raised taxes on the middle class with the Biden-Blumenthal build inflation back better act…You were warned by Larry Summers and other Democrat economists that this would be the result…I would grade the economy an F.”
Energy
Blumenthal called the Keystone Pipeline a “distraction,” continuing to prove the Blumenthal-Biden energy policies are tone deaf and costing Americans at the pump.
Reality check: Leora Levy called for American independence on energy to contain energy costs.
Career Politician
Blumenthal showed he is a 37-year career politician by talking about bills he’s authored in his 37 years that haven’t done anything to help Connecticut.
Reality check: Leora Levy showed she is a career American who would go to Washington to get things done.
Biden Rubber Stamp
Blumenthal proved he is a rubber stamp for Joe Biden’s failed policies, touting them despite their failure for the people of Connecticut.
Reality check: Leora Levy pointed out he votes with Biden over 98% of the time.
Crime
Blumenthal continued to lie about his presence at a Defund the Police rally, trying to gaslight Connecticut.
Reality check: Leora Levy was endorsed by the Connecticut Fraternal Order of Police because she is on the side of law and order and will work to make our communities safe again.
Foreign Policy
Blumenthal continued to make excuses for Joe Biden’s foreign policy blunders.
Reality check: Leora Levy said: ““We have a vacuum, an absence of American leadership.”
Statement from Levy following her debate win in Rocky Hill this evening.
“After 37-years in public office, Dick Blumenthal is out-of-touch and has failed Connecticut voters. Under his watch, we have 40-year high core inflation, skyrocketing home energy prices, potential winter blackouts, rising crime, an invasion at our southern border and politics infiltrating the classroom. Connecticut residents have had enough and are ready to elect a change in leadership. I represent a return to common-sense legislation and, unlike my opponent whose policies are crushing American families’ American Dreams, I look forward to fighting in the Senate to make life more affordable for all Americans. This election is about taking back our country, and I know Connecticut will join the red wave on November 8.”
