Tea Party Express Executive Director Taylor Budowich said, “This open seat provides a great opportunity to add yet another bold, Tea Party conservative to Congress. Matt Schultz started his political career as a city councilman in Council Bluffs, Iowa. During his tenure, he fought to cut nearly $1,000,000 from the city budget and reduce the tax burden on the citizens.
“After establishing himself as stalwart voice for conservative principles, Matt was elected as Secretary of State. He brought fiscal responsibility and integrity to the office. He returned $200,000 back to Iowa tax payers by running his department more efficiently and he became a leading advocate for electoral integrity. We are confident that Matt Schultz will bring that same level of passion and leadership if elected to Congress. That’s why Tea Party Express is endorsing Matt Schultz for Iowa’s 3rd Congressional District,” Budowich concluded.
“I am excited to announce our campaign received the endorsement of the Tea Party Express,” Schultz said late last week.
“This is the same group that has waded into tough primary and general election battles to help conservatives like Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Allen West and Steve King, win competitive races!”
Schultz is one of six Republican candidates for the seat, along with one declared Democrat.
With the endorsement of the Tea Party Express, that pretty much seals Schultz’s many shortcomings
Every so often, someone gets elected who’s just in over their head from day one.
Sometimes it’s a fluke, sometimes it’s an ideology over competence thing, sometimes it’s just sheer voter ignorance.
In Matt Schultz’s case it is all three.
Schultz’s bid for a congressional seat is exceeding his grasp & abilities.
I have said before, there are good Republicans out there..Schultz…
Schultz is not one of them.
Far from it, as he exudes incompetence.
