Paul LePage, Gouverneur du Maine, songe à démissionner


Depuis son entrée en fonction Paul Le Page déclenche régulièrement des controverses. Il ma récemment laissé un message obscène sur le répondeur téléphonie d'un adversaire politique. Peut-il demeurer en poste?

 "LePage said that in the wake of his most recent controversy, even state legislators from his own party have begun to turn on him. The governor said he met with GOP leaders from Maine’s House of Representatives and Senate and added that he would speak with his staff before announcing any future plans.

“It’s not about me. It’s about making sure that we can move the state forward,” LePage said. “It’s one thing to have one party behind [you], it’s another thing to not have any party behind you.”

Voici la teneur du message de Paul LePage laissé à Drew Gattine:

 “Mr. Gattine, this is Gov. Paul Richard LePage,” the governor can be heard saying in a recording of the message obtained by the Portland Press-Herald. “I would like to talk to you about your comments about my being a racist, you c--ksucker. I want to talk to you. I want you to prove that I’m a racist. I’ve spent my life helping black people and you little son-of-a-bitch, socialist c--kscuker. You … I need you to, just friggin. I want you to record this and make it public because I am after you. Thank you.”
