Following Joe Lombardo telling KLAS Nevadans “need to maybe feel a little pain” in response to Donald Trump’s tariffs and his praising of Trump’s actions generally, saying he’s “done good”, the Nevada State Democratic Party launched a website to remind voters that in the midst of GOP-manufactured hardship, Lombardo, who also endorsed Trump early in 2024, is inherently tied to Trump and is the cheerleader-in-chief to his chaos.
With an economy that is already struggling and the damage being done by the Trump administration already being felt by all Nevadans, the Nevada State Democratic Party is reminding voters of Lombardo and Trump’s out-of-touch agenda and the harmful impact it’s having on working families.
The sheer volume of the Trump administration’s actions, including the haphazard and reckless cuts by Elon Musk’s DOGE, that are harming Nevada is overwhelming, so this site is designed to be a one-stop resource for Nevadans to stay informed of everything Trump is doing to take Nevada backwards and how little Lombardo is doing to stand up for Nevadans when it matters most.
Nevada State Democratic Party spokesperson Tai Sims:
“The Lombardo-Trump Way is raising costs on Nevada families and businesses while stifling our tourism and gaming revenue, and now the economy is officially contracting as a result. With Joe Lombardo’s encouragement, Trump’s reckless tariffs on Nevada’s closest trading partners are costing Nevadans jobs and are leading to higher costs and less money in people’s pockets, all the while Elon Musk’s DOGE is slashing critical services across the state. Nevada Democrats will continue to hold Republicans accountable for the damage they are doing to working people’s lives and remind voters that Lombardo is Trump’s Cheerleader-In-Chief for his disastrous economic policies.”
