Whitmer to promote Michigan industry on European swing — including a stop at Davos

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer will travel to Europe next week for a five-day trip to promote the state’s recent economic developments and with hopes of attracting new businesses in the automotive and clean-energy industries.

The Democratic governor will travel to Norway first before heading to Switzerland to speak at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos next week to speak on a panel to discuss “The Return of Manufacturing.” She will be a part of a bipartisan group of governors in Davos that includes Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican, and Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, a Democrat.

“We are taking this opportunity to tell Michigan’s story around the world with leaders and decisionmakers in other countries,” Whitmer said in a press release Wednesday. “We’re building something in Michigan that everyone should want to be a part of.”

The trip, which will be Whitmer’s first in Europe to discuss the state’s economic development, will focus on Michigan’s recent mobility and hydrogen investments, while discussing future investment opportunities in Michigan with world leaders and business executives.

Michigan was one of seven Midwestern states to team up to accelerate the development of hydrogen as a clean-energy alternative for automobiles and factories that rely largely on climate-warming fossil fuels. The partnership followed a federal infrastructure law enacted in 2021 that included $8 billion for the U.S. Department of Energy to fund regional “hubs” that would step up clean hydrogen production and distribution.

She is 100% selfish and arrogant. Was an abortion rights activist before getting into Dem politics and was deeply disappointed she wasn’t chosen instead of Kamala and won’t let that happen again. Starstruck about herself when she sees a TV camera within range.

Is that stop in davos before or after her planned reunion with the satanic sisters of the coven, for a planned sacrifice?

Even her eyes give the appearance of a possessed and demented individual.

MI Gubner Moleface did the exact same thing many years ago, it went nowhere. These Euro countries are going to invest in their own borders, we offshore most everything to the chicoms anyway. WHitler and Granholm appear to be long lost sisters...

I guess rooting for a plane crash would be wrong.

They have the same cadre of advisors in Lansing and Ann arbor. You will find a very dedicated group of self-serving communist elite there.

"I guess rooting for a plane crash would be wrong."

Yes, it would. But leaving her stranded in Ukraine is OK. No problems with that.

By going to a few places promoting Michigan she gets the taxpayer to fund her Davos Trip.

LOL…
1. Draconian lockdowns and arrests in the next pandemic.
2. Trying to kill the pipeline from Canada.
3. Horrendous crime.
4. Unreliable energy in the future.
5. One of the worst business climates in the USA.
6. People (workers) fleeing.

Sure. Move your factories there.

If one thinks she's there to 'sell Michigan' , I've got a bridge to sell also...

She's there to receive tutelage and commune with her world communist death cult buddies.

Whitmer is there to pickup her bag of money from the WEF.
The EU heads are and have been caught literally with bags of cash from the mideast countries.

Davos is the place to go where all GREAT LEADERS are being taught about new ways and means how to tyrannize and screw their constituency.
