He’s a Bushie RINO who has done such a bad job that they have elected and re-elected a Democrat governor in a red state.
Typical.
I cannot speak for him as I do not know much about him, but it wasn't his fault. I have lived in NC and have for decades. Gov McCory (Republican) ensured that a democratic candidate would replace him. McCory was the ultimate RINO, dancing to the RINOs' songs in Charlotte. The fact that he was an idiot did not help. McCory did not ignore his base, he abused them, so they stayed home.
String citing a bunch of posts from a blog proves nothing. Do you not think that there are armies of people posting to blogs (this and others) strategically stirring up noise? Whatley has Trump’s confidence, for the moment at least. That’s good enough until proven otherwise. And proof is not found in blog posts.
I know Whatley personally.
I have worked with him as an APO over 40 GOP Precinct Chairs here in District 12 in NC. (He was part of this district or the adjoining district depending on the redistricting map.)
Whatley is a huge Trump Supporter. And, he is the reason there was no 4AM vote drop here in NC. He is a fighter. That is why Trump likes him so much.
Donald Trump told Whatley, “Michael, I really like North Carolina. When I went to bed on election night I had a small lead in North Carolina. When I woke up the next morning, I had a small lead in North Carolina.”
