Where is Joe Lombardo?
While Nevada faces real problems—skyrocketing housing costs, teacher shortages, attacks on reproductive freedom—Governor Joe Lombardo is doing exactly jack shit about it.
​
He’s not leading. He’s not solving. He’s not even pretending to care. Instead, Lombardo’s playing MAGA’s errand boy, more interested in cozying up to Trumpworld than doing the actual job Nevadans elected him to do.
​
Craven to the core, Lombardo’s strategy is clear: do as little as possible, avoid tough decisions, and hope nobody notices—as long as it gets him re-elected. But we do notice. We see the vetoes. We see the inaction. And we see right through him.
​
Nevada deserves a governor who shows up, not one who hides behind political games and empty headlines. So yeah—we’re asking: Where Is Lombardo?
Because this guy isn’t doing a damn thing for us.
Have you seen our governor?
When the Trump administration froze critical federal grants and loans—money Nevada depends on—Joe Lombardo didn’t sound the alarm. He didn’t fight back. He didn’t even ask Trump to reconsider. Instead, he quietly floated cutting state services and hoped no one would notice. If you’re waiting for him to stand up for Nevada, bring a chair.
Trump’s tariffs are jacking up the price of building homes and schools in Nevada—bad news in a state already reeling from a housing crisis. So what did Governor Lombardo do? He brushed it off, saying “tariffs are the great unknown” and promised to “adjust on the fly.” Translation: he’s got no plan and no spine.
While Nevada’s Attorney General fights back against Trump’s harmful policies, Lombardo calls those efforts “unfortunate.” Seriously. That’s his response to standing up for reproductive rights, clean air, and fair wages. He’s not just refusing to lead—he’s criticizing the people who are.
