Laughable: Polis Claims Republicans, Not Dems, Want to Control People’s Lives

Internal polling must look bad for Jared Polis, who is desperately trying to recast himself as a lover of freedom heading into the 2022 election.

In a puff interview with The Hill, Colorado governor Jared Polis claimed that he was “focused on the empowerment of individual voters.” Polis made no mention of his role in forcing ineffective masks onto Colorado citizens, closing houses of worship, schools, and “non-essential” businesses or blowing millions of dollars on hospitals to nowhere.

Rather, Polis claimed that it is Republicans who want to control the lives of the citizenry, likely referring to the Supreme Court potentially striking down so-called “abortion rights.” According to the article in the Hill:

Asked about the country’s political divisions, Polis said that he still believes that “both parties are broad tents,” although he described “an ascendancy in the Republican Party” of efforts to “manage everybody’s lives.”

Polis is counting on Coloradoans to forget that he and his party of crazy-eyed Democrats have spent the last four years (especially the last two) attempting to exert more and more control over law-abiding citizens while easing up penalties for dangerous drug offenses. Polis de-felonizing fentanyl, resulting in massive increases in drug crimes in the state.

Polis is a leftist and will remain a leftist no matter what “live and let live” image he tries to recast for himself.
