I remember.
Recall, also, his deer-in-the-headlights look when it was apparent he had won? Nobody was more surprised (especially since he probably ran as a publicity stunt for his ailing radio career and nobody else wanted the dummy) and I think he never expected the win in a million years. All of a sudden, he was in charge like the bully given the deed to the china shop.
Still, he did a couple things that no other pol has had the guts to do - he lowered auto licensing to a new, low, equal level (so his kids Porsche didn’t cost so much) and, secondly, he had the stones to return over-collected taxes to the rightful owners rather than blowing it (illegally) as a surplus.
Nonetheless, everything else he did was to enrich himself and outside the duties of the office (TV, doll, books, etc.). Lastly, he pissed on Minnesota CC reform people by granting himself a carry permit and nobody else. Nice guy.
I would’ve loved to have seen Chris Kyle clock that nitwit.
I think we got something close to $1,000 from Jesse’s tax rebate. That took some nerve to get done.
A full three years after we moved south, MN tax department found we had short paid the state by $600, so they got some of it back.
