Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) claimed Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump’s pardons have excused political violence, and that has created a “really dangerous precedent.”

Co-host Sara Haines said, “Governor in your memoir, True Gretch you write about being the target of a far-right militia kidnapping plot. We talked about that a lot during the height of the pandemic.”

She asked, “Did Trump’s pardoning of roughly 1,500 January 6th rioters bring back your own experience with political violence and what message do you think that sends?”

Whitmer said, “I think it does send a bad message, right, that we tolerate, excuse and help people who have taken their grievances to mean violence against their fellow Americans.”

She continued, “It’s never acceptable. It’s not acceptable when I am the target. It’s not acceptable when Donald Trump is the target of it.”

If only hypocrisy made me trust her more and like her better ...

People lost their finances, freedoms, and lives under her watch during COVID.

Too many Michiganders have been gaslit and abused for so long ... they are in a perpetual state of Stockholm Syndrome.

Not unlike California ...

We are not called "Michifornia" for nothing.

Trump didn’t excuse Antifa riots and BLM riots. You did and all your Progressive political comrades.

The “kidnapping” was a total BS set up by the FIB and a couple of entrapped patsy’s. It was just disgusting.

Hypocrisy and projection...it truly is all they have.
