Whitmer: Trump’s Rhetoric Caused Hate Crimes to Increase ‘Exponentially over the Last Four Years’
Breitbart ^ | 10/20/2020 | Pam Key

Posted on 10/21/2020 6:08:56 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) said Tuesday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” that President Donald Trump’s rhetoric has caused hate crimes to increase “exponentially over the last four years.”

Cooper said, “When you heard the crowd at President Trump’s rally over the weekend, chanting “lock her up” referring to you— I don’t know if it surprised you given all you have been through and come to expect— but the fact that that’s where this has sunk, and the president still continues to attack you in the wake of this is stunning

She means hate crimes committed BY DEMOCRATS because they are the only ones inciting violence.

Oh, so it's President Trump's fault hate crimes are up?

First, are they really up, or are they just being accounted for differently? I honestly don't know, just asking.

Second, are we including "hate" crimes against President Trump and his supporters? Those are surely up.

But really, if you want to blame rhetoric for a loss of civility you leftists might want to look in the mirror. Who is calling people deplorables? Who is calling people racist? Who is calling people fascist? Who is rioting in the streets? Who is tearing down public statutes and monuments?

99% of the demonization, of issuing of public venom, etc. is coming from the left.

So in her mind, “Lock her up!” is justification for “Burn, Loot, Murder!”.

There’s something wrong with that mind.

Someone from Michigan tell me how she is viewed. Is she popular? Can she win re-election?

She is viewed as a despicable tyrant by most, but the Karen's and Chad's love her for making others wear face diapers.

She isn't up for reelection for two more years.

Fruitcake always looks good to me but every time I try it again I’m always left spitting it out.

The fact that MI state residents hate Whitler’s filthy rotten guts might have something to do with it.

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, AGAIN!

Nazi Governator Whitmer needs an extended dose of “ The Wabash Cannon Ball.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THEkraNUl8I

From the great Atlantic ocean
To the wide Pacific shore
From the queen of flowing mountains
To the southbelt by the shore
She’s mighty tall and handsome
And known quite well by all
She’s the combination
On the Wabash Cannonball

She came down from Birmingham
One cold December day
As she rolled into the station
You could hear all the people say
There’s a girl from Tennessee
She’s long and she’s tall
She came down from Birmingham
On the Wabash Cannonball

Our eastern states are dandies
So the people always say
From New York to St. Louis
And Chicago by the way
From the hills of Minnesota
Where the rippling waters fall
No changes can be taken
On the Wabash Cannonball

Here’s to Daddy Claxton
May his name forever stand
And always be remembered
‘Round the courts of Alabam
His earthly race is over
And the curtains round him fall
We’ll carry home to vic’try
On the Wabash Cannonball

Listen to the jingle
And the rumble and the roar
As she glides along the woodlands
Through the hills and by the shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine
Hear that lonesome hobo squall
You’re travlin’ through the jungles
On the Wabash Cannonball

Does anyone “of reasonably normal IQ” believe ANYTHING that Whitmer, the LIAR, claims??

Fake News

The threats on synagogues were called in from overseas

There was a Democrat “Human Rights Commission” agent who vandalized a synagogue in NYC during the 2018 election cycle.

And NONE of the Leftist Klantifa attacks and assassinations of Trump voters are called “hate crimes”.

There is definitely something wrong with her brain.

Even the slowest of us realize that if she were correct in this statement, the conservative states, those states with thousands of citizens who consider President Trump their hero, would be the most dangerous states in which to live.

Imagine all of those crazed Trump followers roaming the streets just looking for a lib to kill.

Instead the conservative states have the lowest crime rates.

Neah.
There are people who like fruitcake.
She’s more like Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter.
