Restaurant Owner Jason Monn Running for Pennsylvania Governor
wnd ^ | 5 June A.D. 2021 | Yiskah Dean

Republican Jason Monn, a restaurateur and former mayor of Corry, Pennsylvania, has set his sights on the 2022 Pa. Governor race. The owner of Fat Monn’s Grub restaurant identifies himself as a family and community-oriented “common guy,” who understands the “struggles of the everyday Pennsylvanian.”

Monn was raised by a single mom and spent his childhood on welfare. Without a father figure to guide him, he grew up very fast and quickly learned how to take care of himself.

Monn’s experience in government began as a city council member in 2012. He was elected mayor three years later.

The impetus in driving Monn to seek the governorship came at the end of 2020, after watching working-class families suffer from the lockdowns...

Monn believes that good leadership depends on direct engagement with constituents and a healthy dose of humility, “we’re all links in a chain, you know, and if one of those links is broken, that chain falls apart, we have to be able to team up and work together.”

No candidate who is outside of the establishment can get elected in Pennsylvania.

Never know.

With the way the Establishment has been exposing themselves over the last 4.5 years, regular folks are having more andmmore trouble dealing with the state GOPs and their hand picked RINOs

And now that President Trump is back to bouncing around one can’t expect more of the same.

Mastriano is a big ugly but he has a higher starting point.

Trump is backing Mastriano; that’s good enough for me. Monn is a good back-up in case “something” happens to Mastriano.

Lou Barletta spoke at our Tea Party meeting in Allentown this week. He’s a true conservative & a big Trump supporter. He’s running for governor & I would vote for him.

Lou is another good conservative and as a former mayor he does have executive branch experience.

What I don’t want to see happen is too many conservative candidates in the primary diluting the conservative vote thus tipping it to a RINO.

I already have a Lou Barletta for governor sign in my window. He is a dynamic speaker. Lou’s brother died and his 18-month-old grandson was diagnosed with cancer in the final weeks of the senate campaign against Casey. It was just not meant to be.
