I live in Michigan. I despise Whitmer. Many of us do. There was problems with the elections there also.

Amy Benzing's avatar

Same, she was horrible during the Covid era. The not being able to buy gardening items, paint in a one stop shop store. She’d do anything to win.

KRISTA SG's avatar

Yep! Couldn’t buy paint at Meijer or Walmart but could at Sherwin Williams.

Diane Brown's avatar

Why not? That’s crazy!

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

Agitprop lies. Just making shit up.

Grape Soda's avatar

She’s so obviously a tinpot totalitarian. Nurse Ratched during the lockdown. This author seems to think flattering articles in our propaganda press mean she’s actually popular. lol. Also, here’s a news flash: that kidnapping plot was straight up FBI entrapment and whitmer was um, balls deep in that little op. If the Dems do install Whitmer, they must have thorough confidence that they can make enough ballots happen to get her in. Just how naive do you have to be to think abortion and roads are enough to win over the entire electorate? And that covid episode? Some of us - a lot of us - are still deeply pissed off about the absolutely unnecessary power grab it enabled. Whitmer was one of the greediest of the power grabbers. No wonder the Dems like her. The rest of us not so much.

And obviously no one has driven on the roads here in Michigan they suck massive balls !!!

I was thinking the same thing! It gives off serious Dolores Umbridge vibes.

She’s in lock step with Newsome and Pritzker. No thanks.

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

As if the red states are providing a quality of life that is worth reelecting? Get a grip. A majority of them are bitching about undocumented migrants which contribute more than they receive, opposite of the red states so they’re bitching about the people who subsidize them. So typical.

AlmostLastRepublicaninSeattle's avatar

If she is as bad as Newsome, then that’s probably who they will pick. 🙈 Bottom line is that it won’t matter who they decide on. If the plan to let all the “ newcomers” acquire voting rights goes forward, the election may not be a sure thing for Trump.

It’s been said that migrants are already being handed propaganda encouraging a vote for a Democrat president in ‘24. Is this the reason for the endless increase of illegals entering our country? It seems logical, but not ethical. It’s NOT “cheating” if you twist around everything America stands for.

Why shouldn’t migrants get to vote? Why shouldn’t we open our borders and allow them to enter unvetted while many have been fighting to legally become citizens? Seriously, why are we sending money to Ukraine to help their border control & not using it here?

The whole thing is disgusting & an embarrassment right now. The U.N. & global Covid planners( cowards) are loving the chaos.

It’s all part of the bigger picture. Well, my God knows “ the plans” & HIS plans are greater. This is spiritual warfare & it’s time to choose sides. Choose carefully. 😇💕

Kathryn's avatar

This is all true, and she’ll probably bring along Dana Nessel her Attorney General. Nessel said she wants a drag show in every classroom. Look it up!

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

What a bunch of absolute lying bullshit you could order seeds or plants from any catalog any nursery any seen house in America the entire time. Shut the fuck up. You’re really fucking stupid if you think anyone is that stupid.

McKenna's avatar

Michigander here. Big Gretch's handling of the pandemic is what red-pilled me. People here in the upper peninsula DESPISE her. I remember her going on a vacation with her family on a private jet while the rest of us were locked down.

She's got a great wardrobe of blazers, but that's about all she has to offer. Her and Newsome would be my hunger games nightmare.

Jessica Reed Kraus's avatar

Which means they’ll probably run together 😵‍💫

Lilli Daavettila's avatar

Fellow Yooper here.. she’s affectionately referred to as Whitler in this house.

Grape Soda's avatar

Can you imagine the wave of utter smugness coming from that combo?

Shannon's avatar

She is the Dolores Umbridge of American politics. I’m guessing they know this election cycle is going to be super volatile and they want to keep Newsom as the contender for ‘28. Either one would be absolutely horrific for the US.

Melanie Gore's avatar

She is a tyrant and we'd be more screwed than we are now if she won. I don't understand how abortion is an important issue when there are so many more things to be worried about like the open border. That problem is literally changing the landscape of America. It's been my biggest worry since 2021.....that and the corrupt justice system.

S’ra Albion Black's avatar

The USA has not had an open border since 1920! I wish you people would learn facts instead of just listening to (and repeating) political falsehoods.

It's these lies that actually make the whole thing worse.

A new poll by America’s Voice found that disinformation about “open borders” contributes to Central American migration to the U.S. The poll, released Sept. 26, found that more than one in four Central American respondents heard and approximately one in five believed rhetoric that the “border is open.”

So if you don't want more illegal people trying to get in STOP SAYING WE HAVE OPEN BORDERS!

Shannon's avatar

So how would you describe the border situation and explain the enormous influx of illegals crossing over with no consequences? Why is the migrant crisis the worst we have ever seen? Why is the Biden administration fighting Texas to remove barriers on the border to discourage illegal crossings?

Jane L's avatar

Better question is why are the House Republicans not passing the bipartisan legislation to fix immigration?

Spoiler alert - the answer is that they don’t want to give Biden a win before the election. They are putting party before country.

Shannon's avatar

Do you know what was in that bill? How many illegals they would have to allow in before the law is even triggered? Ill give you a clue- thousands. It fixed absolutely nothing. We have immigration laws in the books now that Biden and Myorkas are refusing to enforce. If you are claiming asylum then go to a port of entry. We all know the majority of people if not all who are crossing illegally have legitimate asylum claims. There are more children in cages under Biden, and more women getting trafficked and abused at the border than ever before. This problem did not exist when Trump was in office. If Biden actually wanted it to end - then why do they continually sue Texas from enforcing the immigration laws. Follow Bill Mulligan- he has been reporting from the border for a couple years now- it’s a humanitarian catastrophe all caused by this administration.

Hmmm.... maybe learn to compromise on things everyone can agree on? If a bill is DOA when it arrives at the Senate, then passing it in the House is little more than showboating.

Paula's avatar

The compromise is CLOSE THE BORDER! That should be the goal of every American. The crime and destruction this has caused can never be reversed. Dang Jane wTF up.

ALERT to Michigan citizens. Please sign Citizens For Local Control petition. Information available at micitizenschoice.org.

The purpose of the petition is to return LOCAL control over green energy which was recently quietly snatched away by Act 233 of 2023 and given to the State. The APPOINTED Michigan Public Service Commission will have control over your land use, not the elected officials!! You want a wind turbine project or solar field next to or on your property with NO SAY in the matter?

Turbines can exceed 800 feet, main and kill animals, hurt your health, lower your property values. EMINENT DOMAIN anyone? Confiscation of property OK with you?

Please find an sign a petition. If you can, gather signatures in your voting district!

Many regards

Elle J's avatar

More screwed than if DJT won?

Melanie Gore's avatar

Um, yes! Look at how well the country was doing when he was POTUS.

Bad Sandy's avatar

Oh please. He’d save your ass but you’re too brainwashed to see it.

Dani's avatar

Lifelong Michigander here. Her covid policies were some of the strictest in the country, yet she was caught violating them several times. We weren’t even allowed to buy seeds for our garden because they were deemed “non-essential” and blocked off in stores. We were threatened not to travel unnecessarily throughout the state or out of state, and people weren’t allowed to use a boat with a motor. The orchestrators of the supposed kidnapping plot were all acquitted. Her SOS and AG are deeply corrupt. Her slogan “fix the damn roads” is just that, a slogan. Our roads are still trash. It’s a running joke with Michiganders that you know you’ve left Michigan because the roads are nicer.

Peggy's avatar

God forbid they would grow a carrot and not depend on big gov

Bad Sandy's avatar

Right. Farmer’s are a threat. Which is why people are dumb enough to believe cow farts are destroying us and we need to eat lab grown meat instead. 😂🤣

Old Comers’ Granddaughter's avatar

Seriously, Jessica you have to look further into her. She’s the absolute worst!!!!!

McKenna's avatar

Do you remember when the marinas were closed yet her husband was putting his boat in? FML. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Carrie Aulette's avatar

And now she is “fixing” honestly every single road so it’s impossible to go anywhere! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Karen's avatar

Whitmer is not as popular in Michigan as they are trying to make it sound. She’s mostly despised. And as someone commented earlier there were massive voter fraud issues in Michigan.

Carrie Aulette's avatar

Michigan lifer here, you are 💯 correct!

KRISTA SG's avatar

Michigander here! So true! Most despise her.

Dawnea's avatar

Chilling prospect. She’s Newsoms twin and we in California know what that would mean

Audrey Jeanette's avatar

All I remember from the pandemic is my Michigander parents complaining about Whitmer's protocols (not all, obviously, but mostly). My parents are true outdoorsmen and couldn't even go fishing (a way they sustain their regular food source) because of the boat ramps being blocked off and threat of major fines. Fishing... outside... in your own boat... away from people....

Peggy's avatar

And her husband was out, boating!!

Audrey Jeanette's avatar

Exactly, a true slap in the face to residents. I heard all about her vacation home while my parents were being told not to travel outside of their county of residence. Was interesting for me to simultaneously experience the walking contradictions of Newsom while they were experiencing Whitmer.

Grape Soda's avatar

Zero chance of catching covid = not about protecting your health. Pure power grab.

Jaclyn Clever's avatar

Oh yeah she wanted masks on everyone 2 and up! She’s the literal devil.

McKenna's avatar

Yet her husband was allowed. Insane!

Bad Sandy's avatar

It was so logical that our beaches and open air spaces were closed but we had dots on the floor at Target 🙄

Jaclyn Clever's avatar

I live in Traverse City, where her dumbass husband tried to skip the line with his boat launch. I DESPISE this woman (for so many reasons), but I don’t doubt she will take Joes place. She is a power hungry tyrannical idiot. And I’m sorry, but abortion up until birth for any reason isn’t a woman’s right- it’s straight up murder. She makes me sick.

Tetiana Alonso's avatar

100%. I’m Pro Choice but you can’t tell me an abortion of a full term baby because they no longer want the baby not because of medical reason is anything but Murder

Jaclyn Clever's avatar

Even if there’s a medical reason to get the baby out, you don’t have to kill it first. You can deliver it alive.

Elle J's avatar

No one aborts full term babies.

Tetiana Alonso's avatar

Correct they murder them.

M Gazelle's avatar

Full term abortion would be birth

arlette.delong's avatar

Please explain how you abort a baby at birth.You may also look up the definition of the verb abort

Brittany's avatar

Agreed ❗️❗️❗️

Old Comers’ Granddaughter's avatar

Anons (of the Q variety) have been saying they would replace Biden at the DNC convention for over a year now. We mostly figured it would be Michelle Obama, but she’s not pulling as high as they thought she would. I hate Gretchen Whitmer. I knew exactly who she was as soon as she said her name, but I live in Ohio and referred to her as the Wicked Witch of the North. She was an absolute dictator during Covid. She helped with the 2020 Steal. Eff Gretchen Whitmer. May she melt into oblivion!!!

RMP's avatar

I live in Michigan. Whitmer allowed nursing homes to accept Covid patients. A lot of people died. This is posted in the Detroit Free Press.

From the Detroit News, Whitmer declined the state's nursing home association leader recommendation to house quarantine patients in empty facilities.

This needs to be answered for.

Peggy's avatar

Best reason to keep her out of any and all of our lives. But thousands died at so many of these tyrants hands. Half- HALF the country doesn’t even know this… or even know of the current deaths… or that poisons were injected … etc. etc. etc.

Peggy's avatar

God. No.

Tyrannical wanna’ be communist.

Her husband went boating during lockdowns-kept others on dry land!!

I see someone else already mentioned citizens of her state weren’t allowed to buy seeds- my God in heaven, NO!!

Playing the woman card are they? How’s Harris working out??

AND I keep screaming from the rooftops… how do they DITCH Harris??? Will she settle for money over power???

( Doesn’t SHE realize she’s not equipped for the job?? )

Jessica Reed Kraus's avatar

scary thing is, anything is possible in this election.

MissssMe's avatar

Oh my gosh, no! This woman was the absolute worst during the Covid lockdown people weren’t even allowed to go to the grocery store to buy anything into food! My parents literally were permitted from buying paint to paint the laundry room During Covid!!! She also has been a hypocrite just like Newsom, where she’s out boating and partying with her friends or being a dictator to the public. Demanding compliance she is the absolute worst

MissssMe's avatar

Sorry, this was incoherent, but I am doing talk to text because I wanted to post as soon as possible’n

Karen's avatar

It is also worth mentioning that the Republican party in Michigan is a total mess. And I say that as a Michigan Republican. She really hasn't faced a hard election. Tudor Dixon was destroyed by Never Trump Repubs. Her first election she ran against Bill Schuette who was as interesting as drying paint.

Also, check out Dana Nessel aka Whitmer's Henchwoman. You think Biden has gone after his political enemies? Nessel, the Michigan AG, has gone after almost all elected Republicans since Big Gretch took her throne. It's terrifying.

Melanie's avatar

The Michigan GOP members are at best, totally inept and at worst, sabotaging the party.

KG's avatar

You didn't mention Shitmer's stance on illegal migration. She actually wants Michigananders to pay to house illegals and help them get jobs and transport them to said jobs on our own dime !!! Also, she and her minions are on the warpath against homeschoolers in the state as well. Lastly, her leather jacket look is played out.

Esther's avatar

Rachael Denhollander told us at a private speaking engagement that Whitmer wasn't going to prosecute Larry Nassar for abusing girls, Rachel being one of them, rather letting him plead guilty to a child porn charge. She didn't want the investigation to get in the way of her run for governor. The lead investigator had to pick up the phone and ask for intervention from the Attorney General's office. Turns out Nassar assaulted hundreds of girls. Whitmer was too busy playing politics and looking out for herself to try to get justice for abused girls. Wish someone would dig further into this story!

Courtny's avatar

God what a nightmare he was! Such a stain on our state’s history; the amount of blind eyes that were turned on his behalf is astounding.

Sarah DiGloria's avatar

Absolutely evil when an adult, who is supposed to protect and safeguard children , instead turns a blind eye.
