Rotten To The Core: Marie Gluesenkamp Perez Insults Washington’s Farmers

Washington families already knew Marie Gluesenkamp Perez was out of touch, but now she’s taking shots at one of the state’s most iconic industries, calling apples “gross” while discussing school lunches and insulting the farmers and agricultural workers who help power Washington’s economy.

What makes it even worse? Red Delicious apples make up roughly 25% of Washington’s apple production and remain a symbol of the state’s agricultural heritage.

“Delusional Marie Gluesenkamp Perez has become a rotten apple for Washington. Mocking one of the state’s most iconic products and disrespecting the hardworking farming communities behind it proves just how out of touch and arrogant she’s become.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
