Nevada AG: Trump’s Atlantic City Disaster Was Just the Warm-Up

Nevada AG Aaron Ford warns that Trump’s “encore” is destroying Las Vegas and lays out the plan to fight back

I just sat down with Nevada Attorney General, and now Democratic candidate for governor, Aaron Ford, and he told me how the people of Nevada have had it with Donald Trump’s fraud and broken promises.

Trump’s latest gimmick was supposed to be “no taxes on tips.” Sounds great… until you realize that international tourism has collapsed because travelers around the world don’t want to spend their money in a country run by a corrupt, unstable embarrassment. Tourism from Canada alone is down nearly 40%, and Vegas visits have dropped by more than 11%. That’s tens of thousands of union workers whose actual incomes have been slashed (reports say by more than half!!!) all thanks to Trump’s trade wars, anti-clean-energy tantrums, and outright hatred for working families.

Sound familiar? It should. Trump already ran the exact same scam in Atlantic City. He promised “the most successful hotel in the world” and left behind a bankrupt shell and thousands of unemployed workers. Now he’s trying to do an encore in Nevada.

And to make matters worse, Nevada’s MAGA governor, Joe Lombardo, is openly siding with Trump over his own constituents. Even as they suffer. When working people in his state pushed back, Lombardo literally told them to “go f*** themselves.” That’s not just us saying that or speculating. We uncovered the actual audio and released it ourselves.

Aaron Ford laid out the contrast perfectly. While Lombardo vetoes bipartisan bills that would lower prescription drug costs, tackle housing prices, and protect clean energy jobs, Ford actually worked across the aisle in the state legislature to deliver real solutions for Nevadans.

It’s not just that Ford is running against Lombardo. Lombardo is running against the people. And the people are waking up.
