The woke and radical left in Michigan are doing so much damage that the majority of its residents are effectively blind to it because the Democrats in Lansing and elsewhere in the State operate in a shady and covertly stealthy manner. They are not “in your face” with it like they are in CA and CO, but don’t let the smooth taste fool you because they’re not the harmless moderates they appear to be. Is it just me, or does it seem like Gov. Whitmer, AG Nessel, SoS Benson (and she’s running for Governor!), have been keeping such a low profile that their silence is also deafening? The State of Michigan has become a testbed for this innovative strategy, the success of which depends heavily upon opacity while having the mere appearance of adequate transparency. It’s what they do, and they have new ways to do it if they think nobody’s looking.
They’re pulling the same stunt in North Carolina.
We can thank the GOPe for this, being in a deep red area I can’t adequately describe how often conservative leaning people don’t get to the polls, the lesser of evils in voting is long gone and many people just simply won’t support RINOs.
A side note and/or side symptom: In the last state election the MI state GOP lost both the state house and the state senate for the first time in decades, why is this? No red wave locally just like nationally. That’s because the state GOPe has done a pathetic (and that’s being generous) job over the years and has earned it. The RINO state house/senate did NOTHING after the stolen election in 2020, (dump of ballots in Detroit in the middle of the night) and WHitler could have vetoed every voting security bill but these losers didn’t even try and that's just the beginning.
No one turned out to vote for them to keep them in power, no more. Like the rest of the rustbelt states these states are really nice in a lot of ways, however they all have a YUGE blue dot on the map called 'uniparty' keeping the upper Midwest stagnant for two generations and still marching.
