CBS reporter travels to Nevada, shocked by what Nevadans really think
Adrianna Diaz, CBS reporter, visited eateries in Reno, North Las Vegas, and Pahrump. Since Nevada is considered a swing state, one would expect to see a mixture of viewpoints regarding the 2024 election. However, Diaz discovered a reality that did not match what she expected. She found just found one Harris supporter in each of the eating places that she visited. The rest of the customers were excited about Donald Trump. Their responses showed that Donald Trump was right regarding what he said during the debate with Kamala Harris.
From Life Zette:
At a Reno barbecue joint, a group of women gathered around their table to chat about immigration. Their stance was crystal clear. “People are coming here for asylum? Baloney. They’re coming here for the freebies,” one of them remarked, summing up the frustration many Americans feel about unchecked immigration policies.
In North Las Vegas, a man dining at a Mexican restaurant voiced his irritation with inflation, using tacos as a prime example. “Tacos used to be what? A dollar, a dollar fifty? After the pandemic, they don’t go under three dollars.” His comment cuts right to the heart of the issue: the rising cost of living has hit everyone, and working-class folks are feeling the pinch.
Pahrump wasn’t any different. At a local diner, a woman criticized the government’s reckless spending and inflation woes. “I think they think if they keep throwing money at it, it will fix the problem. It’s the same as an old house, oh, let’s just keep fixing it. Sometimes the solution is to tear it down and rebuild.” Her sentiment echoed the dissatisfaction with Washington’s failed policies.
