The Mississippi Democratic Party is taking action in response to last week’s rally held to generate support for Donald Trump. The rally has sparked two new calls to action. However, the Republicans are dismissing it as a desperate attempt for attention.
Cheikh Taylor, Chairman of the Mississippi Democratic Party, exclaimed, “Our message has finally captured your attention!”
According to Cheikh Taylor, the purpose of the calls to action is to promote the Democrat message. We would like to hear your thoughts on boycotting the State Fair, which is closely linked to Agriculture Commissioner Andy Gipson, the host of the recent Donald Trump rally.
Joel Henry stated that if the individual is collaborating with Donald Trump, he would communicate to the state fair and inform them that he does not support them if they are endorsing such individuals.
Carla Lambright expressed her opinion that it is a free country and everyone has the right to support whoever they choose. She further added that she does not see anything wrong with Andy Gipson supporting whomever he wants to.
According to the latest update from the Democratic party, they are urging Attorney General Lynn Fitch to step away from the welfare scandal investigation. The reason behind this demand is because she was seen with former Governor Phil Bryant, whose name has been linked to the investigation.
According to Taylor, the intention behind it all is to prompt more profound discussions.
Taylor believes that the recent event has brought to light a multitude of issues that have been plaguing society, including the voting rights of felons and the fair and unbiased prosecution of individuals involved in the DHS scandal.
In response to the matter, the Republican Party Chairman, Mike Hurst, released a statement.
“These recent statements from the Mississippi Democrat Party are just sad, desperate attempts to generate media attention, as Democrats have nothing else to offer Mississippians other than hollow words. Mississippians will continue to attend our State Fair, Attorney General Fitch will continue to do her job judiciously, and Republicans will continue to make our state better.”
Henry Barbour, a GOP strategist, shared the same view.
Barbour criticized the Democrats for their confusion regarding the issues that matter to the people. He emphasized the importance of focusing on the economy, inflation, jobs, crime, and the border. Barbour’s remarks indicate that the Democratic Party is out of touch with the concerns of voters in Mississippi, resulting in their difficulty in electing candidates.
According to the chairman of the Democratic Party, causing financial troubles for fair vendors is not their intention. However, they are determined to respond appropriately to draw attention to the actions of the current state leadership.
