Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) issued an apology after posting a video appearing to mock the sacrament of the Eucharist, noting that she “would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith.” 
In a statement provided to Fox2 Detroit by Whitmer’s office, the governor explained that the video, in which she can be seen wearing a Harris-Walz camouflage hat and placing a Dorito chip on the tongue of Canadian author and journalist Liz Plank, was “supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs.” 
“Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith,” Whitmer said in her statement. “I’ve used my platform to stand up for people’s right to hold and practice their personal religious beliefs. My team has spoken to the Michigan Catholic Conference. What was supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs, has been construed as something it was never intended to be, and I apologize for that.”

    It took me a while to realize who Gretchen Whitmer reminds me of. (My condolences to Jack Palance's family).

    “Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith,” Whitmer said in her statement ../ Kind of stupid aren't you, Gretch. You just did.
The apology is nice but the fact that you would ever do something like this can't be forgotten or ignored. You're sick.

    She puts the Dorito on a kneeling person’s tongue. She even holds the Dorito the way a priest would hold the host. She must be completely fried in the head to miss that symbolism, or she is a liar, and she “apologizes” because she got caught.

    She’s guilty of blasphemy and how many times this year has she been forced to issue apologies? I think it’s 2 or 3. It’s like she does this crap on purpose. She looks like she belongs in a horror movie.
