In another comment in 2012, possibly responding to another reader, Jackson used a report about a Democratic lawmaker obtaining a protection-from-abuse order against a fellow Democratic legislator after their breakup to take a sarcastic swipe at the #GOP, mocking the notion that #Republicans were morally above such conduct.
@Nonilex LePage was one of the most disgusting, foul mouthed, homophobic and misogynistic governors to ever walk this earth.
Check his record. If anyone deserved to be trolled it was LePage.
There are much worse things.
@Nonilex I love it! Creative.

It's not illegal. I bet there are other people in politics doing this. Too bad the Dems don't ever get into serious oppo research. The point is these MAGAt drones can find something on almost anyone and use it as a weapon if we let them. Is this worse than Susan Collins insider trading and greenlighting a sexual abuser for the "Supreme" Court? I don't think so.
Using an online alias, “Canadians for LePage,” #TroyJackson posted dozens of times on The Bangor Daily News website, acc/to a CNN analysis, routinely mocking & criticizing LePage at a time when the 2 were caught in a political fight over Canadian loggers being allowed to work in #Maine.
After LePage vetoed one of Jackson’s bills restricting foreign labor on state-owned land, Jackson publicly accused the governor of being, “more interested in giving jobs to Canadians rather than Maine workers.”
Meanwhile, posting anonymously online as “Canadians for LePage,” #TroyJackson frequently disparaged LePage in the comments sections of news articles. “You are no more a woodsman than LePage is a Governor,” Jackson wrote in one exchange commenting on an article on the state’s budget.

“Oh yes, the Republicans never do any thing approaching this,” he wrote. “They are working hard on good government, night and day, and if they have just a one spare moment, they get together for bible study or a good game of tiddly winks. PLEASE.”
CNN’s KFile was able to link Jackson to the “Canadians for LePage” alias through multiple records, including an email address connected to Jackson, jacksonforsenate(at)hotmail.com.
News of Jackson’s anonymous online activity comes as he prepares to take on #Republican incumbent Sen #SusanCollins in a pivotal #Senate race this November. Jackson, a former logger & one-time president of the #Maine Senate, recently became the Democratic nominee after the high-profile implosion of progressive outsider #GrahamPlatner.
