Steinhardt said Murphy’s intent is a carbon copy, cut and pate of the national socialist platform leader Bernie Sanders.
“Murphy campaigned on a liberal platform that some in the press compared to Bernie Sanders’,” Steinhardt said. “He has already doubled down on many of his campaign promises, bucking some in his own caucus, by championing legalized marijuana, a $15 government mandated wage, higher income taxes, unprecedented, state-sponsored protections for illegal immigrants, and a $1.3 billion tax increase to pay for it all.”
New Jersey’s government is now left with few checks and balances outside of the media which has historically led the cheer for the progressive liberal platform of New Jersey Democrats, even in areas of the state outside of the urban centers which are predominantly Republican majority districts.
