GOP candidate in New Hampshire points out his opponent is a millionaire after accusation

A Republican congressional candidate in New Hampshire criticized her Democratic opponent Thursday night, reminding her that she is a multimillionaire after the Democrat accused her of favoring the rich.

“She believes we should give the richest and largest corporations a break and hope for the best, hope that the results trickle down to hard-working people,” said Democratic congressional candidate Maggie Goodlander, who is married to national security adviser Jake Sullivan. Republican Rep. Lily Tang Williams said during a debate.

“I take a completely different approach. I believe the middle class deserves a tax cut, and I believe we will do a lot for this country by ensuring we do not continue these disastrous tax policies.”

In response, Republican Rep. Lily Tang Williams raised her hand and responded to Goodlander, saying, “You’re rich. They are worth $20 to $30 million. How do you know that normal people are suffering? Are you going shopping? Do you go to Walmart to buy food? I'm talking to these people and you pretended to be a renter in Nashua a few months ago to run for this vacant seat with millions of dollars from Washington, DC, Insider. … I don't have the money for it When you put out a TV commercial, you act like you're poor and complain about the high rents.
