They both come off as completely phony. This type of interviews / debates just don't work anymore. Long form podcasts with actual tough questions and pushback is the only way to tell how honest or full of S they are. I have briefly worked for Tammy and she was awful. Armstrong is 100% just a RINO. He votes as the party leaders tell him to. He doesn't have a mind of his own.

I read Tammy wanted to abolish property taxes, I doubt that would have ever went through. Nobody is brazen enough to do anything people actually want ._.

[@btripodina70]

I can’t even listen to Tammy.

Miller 2024!

😂😂😂😂😂

Running out of power in Bakken equals data center using it.

[@marcoparada6652]

Nope.

[@abigailkennedy7]

Tammy Miller is a much better choice

[@stensland06]

Armstrong is the member of an extremely rich family who, since being in the legislature and now congress, has not once actually engaged with or responded to constituents. He is 100% a career politician he has been in it for over a decade. Doing absolutely nothing but voting against conservative values.

[@chrisalbertson5585]

I disagree. Armstrong has responded very helpfully every time I’ve reached out to him.

[@meshiamae]

Funny Armstrong said he’s been in the oil industry since “before “ he was born. 😂 Exaggerating much

[@marcoparada6652]

​@@meshiamae, would you please time stamp this statement?

[@greghornbacher8079]

Armstrong 👎👎

How many bankruptcies does Trump have?

[@meshiamae]

I’m thinking 7 and who goes bankrupt on a casino. And contractors build and build for him and he files bankruptcy. It’s like it was planned. Who would have a fake university just to scam young people out of millions? Miller and Armstrong just turn their backs on the criminal behavior so they can climb that ladder.

[@PickupsAreNotTrucks]

Bankruptcies are part of taking risks and starting / running businesses. Pretty hard to succeed in life without taking risks. I’m not sure what you’re trying to get at?

[@meshiamae]

@@PickupsAreNotTrucks 7 bankruptcies ❓❓❓ Seriously, be real and don’t justify this con man. This is how he planned ahead while contractors are busy with their crew before this dude stiffs them. It’s NOT common, maybe for you. But many pay their bills and have a conscious from not having a fake university. Good luck with your shenanigans.

[@PickupsAreNotTrucks]

@@meshiamae many MANY big companies file bankruptcy multiple times. That’s the risk of starting a business. That’s why plenty of people spend their whole lives working for people who DID take that risk. No, your normal, everyday person should not be filing bankruptcy on a regular basis. I have always paid my bills. I run a successful trucking company here in ND. A company that now makes, quite literally, half the take home pay under Biden as I did under Trump. There’s a lot of things to dislike about Trump but, whether you like it or not, he was great for our countries safety and growth. Does he say and do dumb stuff? Yep. But at least our country thrived with him in charge.
