Whitmer: I censor myself when speaking publicly about Trump to receive federal assistance
MSN via Detroit Free Press ^ | May 24, 2020 | Meredith Spelbring

When asked if she censors herself when speaking about President Donald Trump, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's response was firm:

"Yes."

Axios' Alexia McCammond asked whether or not she feels she has to censor herself when speaking publicly in order to continue to receive federal assistance.

"Listen, the worst nights sleep that I've gotten in the last 10 weeks is when he has attacked me on Twitter," Whitmer says in the 30-second clip of the interview.

My husband, the most apolitical person I know, had been ripping her and dana nessel in ways I didn’t think him possible of doing. Heil whitmer has stirred a sleeping giant. We went out to buy flowers today, the crowds everywhere we went were huge, and a parade was just starting in a city south of us as we were coming home.

Hi.

I was dining with a couple yesterday from Detroit. The wife owned a restaurant and the husband was the sales manager for a large auto parts company.

When talking about Whitmer the explecitives were frequent. They didn’t hold back.

Michiganders are a liberty minded people.

Don’t forget about defective dams making both a lake and a city disappear.

Gretchen Dearest does have an option, of course. She can straighten up and fly right, or she can just keep on doing clown tricks and playing the “capricious and whimsical female”.

It ain’t cute, Gretchen Dearest. This is serious business, and pretending to be the guardian of “safety” in Michigan is a zero-sum game at best.

Probably some 90% of the artificial restrictions placed on Michiganders are completely meaningless, either to restrict the spread of the COVID-19 Wuhan virus, or to effect some kind of workaround to get the essential business of Michigan moving and in gear.

Many of the things termed “non-essential” are in fact HIGHLY essential, and the designation is both demeaning and purely arbitrary. Geographically, only a small part of all of Michigan has been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 Wuhan virus, and that among some well-identified demographics. Concentrate on THOSE, and the rest of Michigan will take care of itself without micromanagement.

"…in order to continue to receive federal assistance."

Possibly her intent is to “repurpose" taxpayer dollars that PDJT has committed for a specific purpose for anything that she feels like spending it for, ultimately to buy votes for Democrats, and to do so without accountability.

Corrections, insights welcome.

Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a "third term" in office imo.

Hmmm... it’s sad yet telling that all of her fellow Michiganders who are out of work and losing their businesses and livelihoods arent what’s losing her sleep...

None of Das GretchenFuhrer's friends stopped getting a paycheck.

I never looked at Whitmer closely on TV before yesterday, but she has a distinctly evil look on her face, rather like the stereotype of a witch’s face.

She’s like a dominatrix, only there’s no safety word to make her stop.

The girls in MI broke the glass ceiling and all they have to show for it is death, destruction, and boats locked down.

Hey now! It's not like Nessel and her boss Whitmer made Boyce Hydro raise the water level behind their dams, even though the Feds and Boyce Hydro argued against it.

Oh, wait - Nessel did EXACTLY on May 1st, a couple of weeks before the dams imploded...

My stereotype image of a dominatrix is Bettie Page.

Whitmer seems like the hex-casting sorceress to me.

They should chuck her into the deep end of a pool. If she sinks a drowns, or if she floats, take her out and burn her at the stake. Either way its a win.

About the only time I ever lost sleep over it is when the perfect response pops in my head hours later. Than I say - damn, I should have said that!
