That is the big news here. Omar Smith is being referred to as a &#8220;campaign vendor&#8221; and &#8220;volunteer&#8221; rather than a staffer. But at any rate, Omar Smith using a racial slur and saying that the candidate makes promises he knows he can\u2019t keep.<\/p>\n<p>Omar Smith of Andrew Gillum\u2019s staff says Florida\u2019s &#8220;a cracker state &#8212; You get it? Ask anybody outside of here. You go to Port St. Lucie, Orlando? Man, them crackers ain\u2019t gonna let us do that crap. Dog, boy you crazy? He went on. \u201cGillum is a progressive\u201d and \u201cHe is a part of the crazy, crazy, crazies.&#8221; He\u2019s gonna get even with these people. But it\u2019s a cracker state, man! You get it? Anybody, ask anybody outside of here, go to Port St. Lucie. (interruption) Yeah, they do.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/di3WRRHRWlE\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In Port St. Lucie, if you go to McDonald\u2019s and they\u2019re out of Chicken McNuggets, they call 911. I mean, the customers do. At least they did when Obama was in the White House. That\u2019s what they thought his job was, you know, get the McNuggets delivered to McDonald\u2019s. Then the undercover reporter asked Omar Smith how Gillum plans to pay for many of his campaign promises. Omar Smith said he couldn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cThat\u2019s not for [the voters] to know&#8230; That\u2019s not for them to know. Remember our saying, modern day fairy tales start with &#8216;once I am elected.'&#8221; This is Gillum\u2019s staffer! &#8220;Remember our saying, modern day fairy tales start with &#8216;once I am elected.'&#8221; Also this from Politico, of all places. &#8220;Latest Documents Claim Gillum Paid for Fundraising Trip with Official Office Account.&#8221; He\u2019s out there&#8230; This guy, by the way, is promising Medicare for all. There\u2019s one poll that has Gillum up six points.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-290733\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110118-Project-Veritas-002.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110118-Project-Veritas-002.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/APP-110118-Project-Veritas-002-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I just can\u2019t fathom that, unless there are a whole bunch of new people in this state that don\u2019t have any idea of anything going on other than vote for the person of color or vote for the Democrat or what have you. Because the things this guy wants to do are not gonna benefit anybody, especially the supposed people he says it\u2019s gonna benefit. You institute a state income tax in Florida and you end one of the primary business attractions of this state.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019d be like raising and creating an income tax in Texas or Tennessee. I mean, it would be ridiculous to do it. It would choke off economic activity, and it would have ramifications like you can\u2019t believe negatively for the state of Florida, people who live here as well. But, yeah, this is all about Gillum making promises he can\u2019t keep. It\u2019s not for voters to know. The campaign staffer has now been fired.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Andrew Gillum\u2019s campaign has cut ties with a campaign vendor and volunteer, Omar Smith, who was caught on undercover video by [Project Veritas] saying that Gillum isn\u2019t leveling with voters over how successful his agenda will be if elected and, perhaps more controversially, for calling Florida a &#8216;f&#8212;ed up a&#8211; state.&#8221; Well, I can\u2019t&#8230; I can\u2019t say.
