IS JOE TRILLO JUST A "SPOILER" IN GOV'S RACE?

The gubernatorial race here in Rhode Island is getting...to use a hockey term during these Stanley Cup playoffs...CHIPPY. Former longtime GOP lawmaker now running as an independent, Joe Trillo, is blasting Cranston Mayor Allan Fung, vehemently denying he's running for governor as an indy to help incumbent Gina Raimondo win re-election. Trillo tore into Fung accusing him of spreading lies about his opponents. Trillo says he's not in the race as a "spoiler" and vowed he won't back out. He called himself Fung's "worst nightmare" citing the Cranston mayor's 36% showing in the last governor's race and the fact Fung's popularity hasn't grown according to a recent Eyewitness News/Roger Williams University poll. Trillio questioned how Fung deserves crdit for the development of Garden City and Chapel View shopping plazas giving developers NOT Fung the credit. Trump says Daffy Duck could have been in the Mayor's office and those 2 centers would look the same." Daffy Duck? And it's only April!
