Republican Gubernatorial candidate Hirsh Singh excoriated the Guadagno-Piscopo tag team this morning as little more than an embarrassing side show.

“After months of generating free publicity for his radio show, comedian Joe Piscopo has delivered his punchline by cashing-out and endorsing the status quo,” Singh said. “It’s sad how elites in government and media collude with each other at the expense of the people.

“Kim has no plan to fix the school funding formula, end affordable housing mandates, or stop the legislature from imposing new taxes on us,” Singh added. “She’s not prepared to take on Phil Murphy and no comedian is going to help her.”
