In an exclusive presidential forum featuring the third party candidates, Libertarian Presidential candidate Gary Johnson was asked about news reports that the four billion dollar deficit he inherited as Governor of New Mexico had nearly doubled when he left office.
Gov. Johnson’s response to the question was priceless!
There has been a liberal effort to undermine the Johnson campaign for months now as he takes away votes from Hillary Clinton. Johnson is popular among millennials and that scares the Clinton campaign who is banking on that portion of the vote for an electoral landslide.
Hence the reason that the media is making up stories about Johnson’s time as Governor of New Mexico.
