Lt. Dan Forest beat Gov Cooper in the debate last night, badly. Gov Cooper sounded like a West Coast Liberal. He won't open the state. He won't allow kids to go to school. He can't get laid off workers unemployment benefits or hurricane victims funds. Cooper is a failure as Gov.

Gov Cooper thinks a face mask is a magical device that will protect us all from Covid while he keeps the state in lockdown for political purposes. He has no plan. He walks with the rioters and allowed many NC cities to be damaged and looted during the "peaceful protests"
Listening to Gov Cooper tonight, I thought I was listening to Schumer or Pelosi. Cooper mouthed the same talking points as the rest of the left wing of the Dem party. He wants zero carbon emissions and has set NC on the same pathway as CA for brown and black outs.
He refuses to do the work needed to avoid our streams and rivers from flooding. Instead of dredging & clearing our waterways, he thinks we should drive a Prius to reduce CO2. The only issue Gov Cooper seemed to care about was expanding Medicaid. He has vetoed every budget because
...of it. He refuses to work with the GOP General assembly. He wants to raise taxes(.. I mean roll back tax cuts🙄🙄🙄). His handling of Covid has been a disgrace. Half our deaths in NC have been in nursing homes. Homes he refused to protect. Every neighboring state besides VA is
...open and getting on with their lives. Cooper like most democrat governors refuses to open the state while mandating face masks as his only apparent health policy. Gov Cooper has been terrible for NC not just with covid but with everything else. He has been in government for
...more than 30 years and still can't get anything done. He is all talk and no action and his talk sounds likes a CA left wing democrat nutjob. Why anyone would vote for this fool is beyond me. This is NC not CA. Cooper is holding teacher pay increases hostage for his Medicaid
...holy grail. In fact, he is holding all funding hostage for his Medicaid expansion dreams. He is old & worn out. The guy needs a long vacation and I hope the voters of NC send him on that retirement in 20 days. NC can't afford this level of failure while remaining a great state
Lt. Gov Dan forest in comparison is like a breath of fresh air. He understands we need to open up the state immediately. He wants face masks to be voluntary. He wants to protect our at risk population while allow the rest of the state to return to normal. He wants our kids back
...in school. He wants to manage our streams and rivers to avoid flooding. He wants to fix the unemployment office and make sure the federal money NC received from Hurricane relief is giving to the people ASAP, unlike Cooper who still hasn't done it. @DanForestNC wants to keep
...NC a low tax state that is competitive with our neighbors with good paying jobs. He wants to help our businesses not shut them down. Listening to @DanForestNC tonight gave me hope that the last 4 years of failure are soon to be over. NC can't avoid 4 more years of Gov Cooper.
and of course autocorrect dings me on the last tweet. "Afford* not *avoid*
