We just got word here at the Illinois Truth Team newsroom that there's been a fracture between Democrat candidate for Illinois Treasurer Mike Frerichs and one of his strongest supporters Frank.
They were going to go in on a side investment in what Mike believes to be a *VERY* lucrative market: earmuffs for men.
Turns out, it was over the naming rights of their newly proposed line of "Earmuffs for Men". Mike Frerichs favored calling them "Bruffs" for "bro-earmuffs", but Frank insisted on "ManMuffs".
It all came to a boil after word has gotten around about Mike Frerichs "Taxman" license plates.
Check out this transcript that was provided to us from someone who was at the breakfast this am:
Mike Frerich: Hey there, supporter Frank!
Frerichs Donor Frank: Don't 'supporter Frank' me. I know what you did. How dare you propose a Service Tax in Illinois.
MF: Come on, Frank. I don't even know what you're talking about?
FDF: You think I don't know? *TAXMAN*!!! To think...I almost split the profits of the ManMuffs with you.
MF: Bruffs.
FDF: ManMuffs!
MF: Bruffs.
FDF: ManMuffs!And see how it all went down in this video:
