Helena, MT – Transplant Tim Sheehy wasn’t just a trainwreck on the debate stage – his whole day was a disaster.
Protesters greeted him at the debate and called him out for his disparaging comments about Native Americans, his event with Charlie Kirk was disrupted by multiple attendees who called out questions to him (including Gallatin County-based financial expert Marc Cohodes), and a mobile billboard parked right outside of the debate blasted details about his pure privatization health care plan.
Get the quick recap of Sheehy’s disastrous debate day below:
Sheehy was met with protesters calling out his offensive and disparaging comments, making it clear that Sheehy had lost their vote. In response, Sheehy called the Native protesters “maniacs”:
