This power-hungry idiot is in the running to be Joe Biden’s vice presidential pick! This puts her inches away from the presidency.

In late March Michigan Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer limited access of doctors from prescribing the lifesaving drugs hydroxychloroquine and Z-Paks to save senior citizens in the state from coronavirus.

Hydroxychloroquine and Z-Paks have are widely used by doctors the world over to treat the coronavirus.

Democrat lawmaker Karen Whitsett said she had to beg for hydroxychloroquine that saved her life because her tyrannical governor limiting access to the drug with an executive order!

Now the far left governor is banning travel between homes for Michigan residents! So kids can no longer play at their friends’ house.

Families cannot travel for Easter.

What's with Michigan anyways?

Here is a list of the top ten most populated states in the country:

California (Population: 39,747,267)
Texas (Population: 29,087,070)
Florida (Population: 21,646,155)
New York (Population: 19,491,339)
Pennsylvania (Population: 12,813,969)
Illinois (Population: 12,700,381)
Ohio (Population: 11,718,568)
Georgia (Population: 10,627,767)
North Carolina (Population: 10,497,741)
Michigan (Population: 10,020,472)

Yet Michigan is number 3 in coronavirus infections, with deaths of over 1,000 already.

What's with Michigan anyways?

Detroit?

I'd check to see if a disproportionate percentage of infections are there, before blaming the whole state.

But, that's just a comment on this infection; as to how a climbing clod like Whitmer comes to power, I have no idea.

[Texas Eagle]

The crazy is just beginning. And 95% of these control freaks will get re-elected by their brain dead constituents.

[Mr. Jeeves]

You can't look at total population. You have to look the percentage of the population that practices Third World sanitation standards.

Michigan is probably near the top.

[hecticskeptic]

So I have a cottage in MI that I want to visit and I’m from out of state. I wonder if I can go and visit it....

[SmokingJoe]

You are probably right.
Been to Detroit a couple of times but that was long ago. Can’t say I know too much about the place.

[rockrr]

The same is true of Washington state. One mass infection at one senior care facility in one suburb of Seattle earned us the notoriety of an epicenter of disease for weeks.

[crusty old prospector]

The contagion is a disease of urban squalor.

[gibsonguy]

For those thinking WTF, here is the deal. What happens in the state of Mi will be determined by Detroit, Half WHit’s base. In Detroit the last few weeks has been party time. With crowds of people partying at older people’s places because they have houses. That’s why we can no longer drive between houses even if it’s from your farm to your brothers and there isn’t a virus case within 50 miles. Any restrictions on the city will applied everywhere in the state because it would be racist to do it any other way. Got it?

[basalt]

she better hope Biden chooses her..cuz shes gettin hammered here in Michigan..compare Indiana and Ohio’s responses. Eve the media turned on her...pure bubble-head who thinks her lil “cutesy” act fools everyone.

[G Larry]

This is simply another attention grabbing attempt.

Its unenforceable, nobody is checking, and likely an illegal order.

re: “Yet Michigan is number 3 in coronavirus infections, with deaths of over 1,000 already.”

So?

Find the relevant factor that makes this so ...

[ThunderSleeps]

If you scratch a leftist/socialist underneath (and usually not too far underneath) you'll find a fascist. This {censored} governor is no different. In fact she's a prime example. Power-hungry, perhaps even power-mad.

I wonder what it will take for the people of MI to regain their rights when this "crisis" has passed? I wonder if the governor will ever admit the "crisis" has passed, will every willingly relinquish all this power and control she's claimed for herself?

[VanDeKoik]

Almost ALL of them are down there!

But people in the west, northern-lower, and the UP have to adhere to these stupid edicts?

[BitWielder1]

This lockdown is a preview of what socialism will make permanent.

Got it.

[Libloather]

Time to build a wall?

[SmokingJoe]

Well several posters have already supplied the relevant factors.

re: “What’s with Michigan anyways?”

Overcast ... (clouds, in a word. No sunshine a good part of the year.)

“It was the first Friday of March, and everyone among the tight circle of active and retired sheriff’s officers who had been gathering annually for 20 years knew exactly where to be: Bert’s, a legendary Detroit hangout.”

Seems they didn’t believe there was a crisis. Ohio had declared a Shut Down on the same day (3/6/20)
