Colorado Governor Brushes Off Trump's Aurora Lies: 'He's Not Running Against Me'
HuffPost
Gov. Jared Polis also said "it's great" that Trump is "distracted" by attacking him — instead of focusing on his actual opponent in the presidential election.
Colorado Gov. Jared Polis doesn’t seem to mind being attacked by former President Donald Trump.
Polis (D) appeared on CNN Friday after Trump spoke in the town of Aurora and called him a “coward” and a “fraud,” and falsely claimed that immigrants have “invaded and conquered the city.”
The governor took it all in stride.
“I’m glad he was talking about me because he’s not running against me,” Polis told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. “He’s running against [Vice President] Kamala Harris. ... The more lies and attacks he wants to say about me, the better, because I’m not on the ballot.
“So I’m glad to distract him however I can,” he continued, before praising Aurora.
