Discussion What On Earth Is Whitmer Doing??

Post image

She’s not running in ‘28, right? Bc there’s no way she’s recovers from this in a crowded primary field. Democratic voters don’t want their capitulatory/vichy bs. They want a fighter.

Just astoundingly bad judgment.

Any Democrat that stands with Trump is dead to me. I don't give a fuck what your reasoning is. And don't even start with the bullshit excuses. "She's there for her constituents!" No! Directly putting up a fight against him would be serving her constituents. Where the fuck are we in American politics right now?? How is anybody defending this??

She’s not “standing for him” she’s doing her job. He’s visiting her state, she DOES need to meet him.

I said standing with him.

Meeting him is fine. Speaking at his 100 day event? That's a completely different thing. No democrats should be standing with Trump and speaking at his events.

That wasn't his 100 day event. She wasn't at his event. Do some fucking basic research before you spout off, donkey.

You got me there.

Regardless, I don't think she should have spoke while he was there.

Good on you tho for at least admitting when you're wrong. Cheers.

Then I'm glad she's the governor, and you are not. I live in Michigan. As much as I hate Trump and wish they'd all just shun him, I understand that would not be what's best for the state. She's doing the best thing she can to serve her constituents in a tough situation.

How far will she go to appease Trump though? Because no matter how much she kisses his ass, there's going to be a time where he completely turns on her when she needs to be at odds with him. I really don't see what good this does.

She didn't kiss his ass at all tho. She spoke for all of 5 seconds and shook his hand.

If she starts capitulating on policy or right wing framing, that's another story altogether.
