Five MORE Times Bernie Moreno Lied To Ohioans By Claiming He Sold Off All Of His Businesses While Investing $50 Million To Open New Car Dealership

Columbus, OH - After NBC News caught Bernie Moreno "preparing a return to the auto industry," Moreno is "under scrutiny" for lying to Ohioans and claiming he "sold off all of his businesses to avoid conflicts of interest."

Five More Times Bernie Moreno Lied To Ohioans That He "Sold Off All Of His Businesses To Avoid Conflicts Of Interest" While Taking Steps to Open A New Car Dealership:

1. MORENO: "I've sold all my business, divested myself from any conflicts of interest because I believe something pretty obvious that when you run for office or serve in office you should have no conflicts of interest. So every one of my businesses is gone." [00:16, 8/5/24]

2. MORENO: "I've sold interest in every business, I don't have any individual stocks. Because I think it's important to set an example when you go to DC, you should have zero conflicts of interest." [06:08, 3/20/24]

3. MORENO: "… if you hire me to go to Washington DC, you should know that I'm going there to serve you with zero conflicts of interest, so no individual stocks, no companies." [1:59:57, 7/29/23]

4. MORENO: "​​I've divested myself of all conflicts… This isn't about building wealth, or becoming famous, or getting stuff for my family, this is about serving my country."

INTERVIEWER: "You still have your businesses, though. Correct?"

MORENO: "Nope, sold them."

INTERVIEWER: "They're all, they're all gone. All gone?"

MORENO: "All gone, yep." [00:34, 5/22/23]

5. MORENO: "I've sold all my businesses so I could focus on campaigning all day, every day." [49:34, 6/25/24]
