For My Fellow Nevadans: Trump Sycophant, Joe Lombardo, is a Pathological Liar

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Like his Fuhrer, Nevada Governor, Joe Lombardo, has accomplished nothing for the people of his state, while lies, claiming successes which are in reality revelations of his support for millionaires and billionaires.

Last year, Lombardo approved ads placed by real estate developers falsely claiming that with the increase in availability of new homes and apartments, housing costs and rental rates would be reduced.

Less than 50 percent of all Nevadans can afford a new home. A large number of newly constructed single family homes are purchased by corporations who will overcharge their renters and make huge profits. Like the rest of America, in Nevada, it’s all about profits for the super-rich.

[Many Nevadans cannot comfortably afford apartment rents, with the state ranking as the second most rent-burdened in the U.S.. In 2024, nearly 58% of Nevada renter households were cost-burdened (spending >30% of income on housing), and a minimum wage worker cannot afford the average rent. The state has a severe shortage of affordable units, particularly for low-income residents.]

DESPERATE TO WIN REELECTION, LOMBARDO IS LYING ABOUT HEALTCARE TO RECEIVE YOUR VOTE

Last week, Lombardo began placing television ads claiming that he is responsible for the growth of all forms of mental and physical healthcare in Nevada. This is far from the truth.

[Key Healthcare Findings for Nevada Ranking: Generally ranked 41st to 50th among states, depending on the study, with a C- grade.

Access & Quality: The Reno Gazette Journal reports that Nevada ranked 50th in the nation for quality of care and access to care.

Physician Shortage: The state ranks 48th for primary care doctors per capita and 49th for general surgeons, creating a significant healthcare workforce crisis, according to a National Institutes of Health article.

Women's Health: Nevada is among the worst states for women's health, ranking low for prenatal care, cancer screenings, and high uninsured rates, says The Nevada Independent.

Insurance: Approximately 15% of adults in Nevada are uninsured, contributing to low rankings in care access.

Disparities and Regional Rankings

Nevada ranks 35th for healthcare services for Black residents and 36th for Hispanics, while Asian American/Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (AANHPI) residents fare slightly better at 25th in the nation, according to the Commonwealth Fund.

The West Health-Gallup Center on Healthcare gave Nevada a D+ for the cost of healthcare, highlighting affordability issues.]

ARE YOU SHOCKED THAT ANOTHER “REPUBLICAN” IS A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR?

Like Trump, he is owned by big business. He has no interest in the future of most Nevadans.

Lombardo has a single goal: “Make Nevada the ‘Mississippi of the West’ Again.”
