Trenton, NJ On the day of the swearing in of New Jerseys new Governor, Phil Murphy, NJGOP Chairman Doug Steinhardt delivered an important message to the people of New Jersey: .
New Jersey is our home and I serve as Chairman of the Republican Party here, because this is where I chose to raise my family, said Steinhardt. I made that conscious choice twenty some years ago, because I wanted the same opportunities for my children that New Jersey offered my parents, grandparents, sister and me. I want the best for my family, my community and our state, but those opportunities are fleeting. New Jersey is already unaffordable for many. I fear that my family, like so many others, will be forced to find opportunities for a better life in another state. That is why I am skeptical of the direction Phil Murphy wants to take New Jersey. We are one of only eight states in the country whose entire statehouse is controlled by Democrats. Our ability to check Phil Murphys radically liberal agenda from inside the system is on life support. Now more than ever, New Jerseys citizens must be vigilant. They must keep close watch on the Murphy administration, and hold it accountable. New Jerseys taxpayers cannot afford to be the personal piggybank for his liberal policies.

Don’t export your liberal rino GOPe politics to our states. You made your bed with Christie, now lay in it.
(Wait. I live here.)
I'm wondering if New Jersey is going to be the first state to go into receivership, or the third.
If you cut out the cities and leave the beautiful parts of the state (NW, South and Central NJ) it is a relatively conservative bunch of people. The problem is there aren’t enough of them to offset the cities and the crazed liberals in places like Bergen and Mercer counties.
Don’t forget Camden County.
Exactly. I’m 15 miles from the wrong side of the Delaware.
... and Essex and Hudson and Middlesex...
American citizens, in olden days, would have protected themselves with the non-violent threat of “tar and feathers”.
We left the Garden State after 52 years there, in 2006, precisely because we could see this day coming.
Years of working against the Demons went nowhere, and the GOP was RINO at best and complicit with the Demons at its worst.
When Bret Schundler lost the governor’s race in 2002, I knew NJ would not recover, ever. The trajectory was set and even Christie could not stop it.When the housing prices peaked in late 2005, we cashed out.
Seriously, NJ is one of the most beautiful States in the Union, but the Demons have turned it into a real sh#thole and brought it to financial ruin.
Yet, the people in NJ don’t get it. The older ones are voting with their feet, being replaced by immigrants who take rather than give. This is a recipe for disaster.
The industrial and corporate powerhouse that NJ was 40 years ago is now gone forever.
The Demons are now presiding over the carcass of a once proud state.
