Biden says Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer is on his list for vice president
LA Times via MSN ^ | 3/31/20 | Matt Pearce

Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who has drawn attention for her scrapes with President Donald Trump over the federal government’s coronavirus response, is on Joe Biden’s list of potential vice presidential candidates, he said in an interview Tuesday.

The former vice president made the remarks during an appearance on MSNBC, after host Brian Williams asked if Whitmer had “lengthened” Biden’s shortlist due to her performance during the pandemic.

“She hadn’t lengthened the list - she made the list, in my mind, two months ago,” Biden said in a brief clip released by MSNBC.

**SNIP**

“We’ve had a big problem with the young, a woman governor from - you know who I’m talking about - from Michigan,” Trump told Fox News personality Sean Hannity in an interview. “We can’t - we don’t like to see the complaints.”

“Now that I’ve got your attention, Mr. President - attack tweets won’t solve this crisis,” Whitmer, 48, said in a response after Trump criticized her on Twitter. “But swift and clear guidance, tests, personal protective equipment, and resources would.”

I never put much thought into who could possibly be a worse choice than Hillary..., but I can see that you not only put some thought into it, you found a winner.

Stacey Abrams is not pleased, and without her on the ticket, Biden might lose GA!

Well, that should work. A governor who can’t run her State, on a national ballot as the second, behind a senile leftist sexual predator.

Biden/Whitmer - 2020!
Incontinence and Incompetence!

Our Governor is truly dumb enough to accept being Biden’s running mate.

I mean, if she can’t see that Biden is losing it, quickly in fact, she really is Wittless.

What “smart” Democrat would turn down such an offer? Probably most of them!

My Michigan relatives used to make jokes about Minnesota voters and now their voting choices are the joke.

Remember when obamy told Uncle Creepy not to run. Even Barry knew. Anyone would be foolish to want their name associated with his unless they made it plain they’re doing it to become POTUS when he’s deemed too incompetent to continue.

The worst Presidential candidate ever chooses the worst Vice Presidential candidate ever. No surprise here. They should be called dumb and dumber.

“Biden will NOT be picking the VP”

She might have been gropable once upon a time, but I'm not seeing it now.
