So #recalldunleavy is on this talking tour saying “we want Alaskans to weigh in on the budget” or “we dont want outsider influences telling us how to run Alaska”

Here’s the thing...

1

@GovDunleavy was elected just over a year ago. The very first thing he did? He went and hired an outsider budget director, Donna Arduin. He literally started off his term as #akgov by hiring an outsider to manage our budget. He didn’t utilize an Alaskan that’s familiar with...

2

our unique needs and demands as a state. He hired an outsider with zero understanding of Alaska. We were just line items and numbers to be chopped by someone that was going to pack up and leave once she gutted our budget (which is what ultimately happened).

3

Now he’s saying he wants to “hear from Alaskans on what we value”

If he really wanted to hear from Alaskans...he would have started listening (immediately) last year when we turned out in record numbers to speak out against his outsider budget directors proposed cuts...

4

He would have started engaging with Alaskans. Instead, he has gone on the lower 48 right wing talk show circuit (he’s gone outside) to talk about HIS ideas and to get feedback from outsiders who support HIS outsider values.

5

Nothing this clown has said or done over the past year provides any evidence he means a single word he is saying now.

His words and actions now are all about self preservation. They are the actions of a man who knows he is in serious trouble of being recalled...

6

It is vital that we continue the bipartisan effort to push this outsider governor...out of office. He does not reflect Alaska or her people.

Remind people of that when they start thinking he’s “finally engaging”

He’s not. It’s a show...much like “Alaskan Bush People”
