New Jersey Mayor Derek Armstead was caught opening government food boxes to the poor, removing letters from President Trump and replacing the letters with his own.
The Democrat mayor wants his constituents to believe they came from his office.
This is dishonest and unsanitary.
But he is a Democrat.
---------
A letter from President Donald Trump that accompanied U.S. Department of Agriculture fresh food boxes for Linden was replaced by one from the city’s Democratic mayor, Derek Armstead.
Food boxes were opened by local public works department employees. Trump’s letter was removed and a letter from Armstead was added.
“The original letter in these boxes was removed, and the mayor had city employees put in his letter on work time,” said Councilwoman Gretchen Hickey, a Democrat and an Armstead political rival.
Armstead acknowledged that his message was added to the box, offering local residents the impression to recipients that the food came from him.
“Whenever I do a delivery, I always add a letter from the mayor,” Armstead told the New Jersey Globe.

Agree.
Sounds like the lady needs to change communities she lives in. Depending upon her age, that may be almost impossible without outside help.
Yes. Like the Mayor in NJ they want to make it look like “the leader” was the source of the food. When in reality it was not.
Yep.
maybe. yes.
she got more govt help when she was in Michigan than she gets now in Tennessee, alas. Tennessee says her ss disability is something like ten bucks above their cutoff amount, so they don’t help her and she goes hungry
her Michigan brother was actually hurting her situation, and her Tennessee brother did say he would help .. so she moved TO Tennessee.. but alas his help seems to have petered out
Frankly her medical condition now would not permit another relocation
as you note, it is not always possible for a person to move. in her case, I could help her with the costs but she is simply unable physically to pack and travel now.
thanks anyway, whatever help we can find for her will have to be made available to her in Tennessee and preferably delivered to her since she can’t drive to pick stuff up
With reason New Jersey was found to be the most despised state in the nation.
I’d not heard that, but it does not surprise me.
Our socialists who like to be called liberals are quick to learn from the Chinese communists CCP “If you can’t come up with something on your own just steal it from someone else” What they have done for a long time.
Sounds credible. I already knew that I have no business even passing through there.
included in the box is a letter from Trump on White House stationary that includes guidance to reduce the risk of being infected with COVID-19.
Get 'im, Gretchen! Keep making noise about this!
Thank for the photo.
He should be personally billed for the complete cost of this food distribution.
In addition he should be charged with campaign finance violations in the same dollar amount for implying that he sent the food and attempting to sway voters.
Better check this clowns garage. Anything that wasn’t cheese was probably removed.
I have no idea what his letter amounted to.
Underlines mine. Funny way to describe something being replaced.
Yes he overruled President Trump. I’d say that is a temporary victory that will eventually bit him.
What a scumbag! Credit is due to President Trump and a lowlife mayor takes the spotlight?
What the hell is going on? Armstead should be replaced.
PS Linden is the home of Oil tanks and idiots.
