Montana: Senate Candidate Russell Fagg Backs an Internet Sales Tax

Breitbart: Montana Senate Republican candidate Russell Fagg admitted to and then backtracked regarding his support for an Internet sales tax.

In February, Fagg spoke to the Voices of Montana and was asked whether he would support an Internet sales tax.

Fagg admitted, “To answer your question directly, yes I would support an online sales tax.”

In March, Fagg backtracked on his comments regarding his support for Internet sales tax, arguing he never said that.

“I actually did not say I would support an internet tax,” Fagg suggested.

Meanwhile, rancher and state auditor Matt Rosendale, who is competing against Fagg in the Montana Senate Republican primary, strongly opposes a sales tax in Montana.

“NO sales tax in Montana, period,” Rosendale tweeted in April.

Montana Democrats even oppose an Internet sales tax.

Fagg, as a state legislator, was the deciding vote to back a four percent sales tax. Fagg’s wife also donated to the ballot initiative to support the tax.  more here

  1. An “Internet sales tax” could just be what triggers a tax revolt in this country.

    What we need to do is cut government in half. It’s mostly bloated bullshit.

  2. Unfortunately Montana has been populated by California expats over the last few decades, so a republican thinks he has to run as a democrat lite to get the big city hipster votes.

    Piker.

    In the spirit of compromise, in memory of “Maverick” McCain, will you both support my plan to take an axe to government, if we also follow up with pikes?

  5. A couple of weeks ago on Pinko’s show this was the guy I said to vote for. Do your home work on people you want to support, we need people that can WIN and help P.Trump. Rosendale can beat Tester with the help of the people Montana.
    All of you folks in Montana on iOTW need to get out and help him (Rosendale).
