THE ONLY CANDIDATE TO TAKE ON OBAMA AND BIDEN - AND WIN
In 2013, Bruce fought the Obama-Biden Administration during the government shutdown, which forced the closure of his business and many others across the country. Like David vs. Goliath, Bruce fought and won the battle, paving the way for his and many other businesses to reopen. Bruce has the courage to fight government overreach.
