Haha. I told them this: "DON'T COME HERE! Lobsters are toxic, the people are frigid, and most of us have syphilis. If you decide to ignore that advice, then definitely go to Lewiston."

Reply to Trump-loving candidate's election party 'devolved into chaos' after he conceded to Democratic rival: report - LePage, who previously served as Maine's governor for two terms, has a long history of making racist statements and also making threats of physical violence against his political rivals. by k11them

My favorite thing about this run was his confession speech—wherein he says that he wished he never got into politics. On camera, you can see an older woman console her daughter (I assume—both were adults, but the interaction was definitely a familial thing). They were shocked and distressed that he said that. I hope they go to Florida with him.

Thank you for your service! My son is a marine (retired) from Maine. He’s in PA as an EMT, but he has said similar things about “home.” Sometimes it takes going away to appreciate home.
