Ron Johnson Launches First TV Ad of 2016: Wisconsin Jobs & Taking on Washington
Says from floor of Oshkosh company he helped build that career politicians “manufacture hogwash… I respect you enough to tell you the truth”
Ron Johnson launched his first statewide television and digital ad of the 2016 election today, talking about his record creating good Wisconsin jobs and telling Wisconsinites from the floor of the Oshkosh manufacturing company he helped build that he respects them enough to tell them the truth – in stark contrast to career politicians like Senator Russ Feingold who “manufacture hogwash.”
You can watch the ad, entitled “Pallets” here. It begins with Ron walking through PACUR, saying, “These pallets, heading to China – those Mexico. Some companies export jobs. We export our products. Been doing it for decades, helping to create more Wisconsin jobs. And I’ve stayed put – right here in Oshkosh – for 37 years.
“Career politicians manufacture hogwash – I manufacture plastic. And I respect you enough to tell you the truth. If you think it’s time for Washington to start facing reality, I sure could use your support.”
