Gretchen Whitmer responds to calls by some Democrats to vote ‘uncommitted’ in Michigan’s primary on Tuesday
Gretchen Whitmer, the Michigan governor, pushed back on calls to not vote for Joe Biden over his handling of the Israel-Gaza conflict, saying on Sunday that could help Trump get re-elected.
“It’s important not to lose sight of the fact that any vote that’s not cast for Joe Biden supports a second Trump term,” she said on Sunday during an interview on CNN’s State of the Union. “A second Trump term would be devastating. Not just on fundamental rights, not just on our democracy here at home, but also when it comes to foreign policy. This was a man who promoted a Muslim ban.”
Whitmer, who is a co-chair of Biden’s 2024 campaign, also said she wasn’t sure what to expect when it came to the protest vote.
Rashida Tlaib, a Democrat who is the only Palestinian-American serving in Congress, urged Democrats last week to vote “uncommitted” in Michigan’s 27 February primary.
How very intersectional of you.
You also missed the entire point of my post. Yelling ‘vote harder’ at the people who are disgusted with genocide who engage in political discussions online won’t be more than a drop in the bucket in comparison to the people who aren’t terminally online and are disgusted by genocide so they don’t vote.
Your guy Biden is throwing the election to Trump, and you’re blaming everyone but him.
Good job.
You’re also setting the stage for blaming leftists for his failure, thus ensuring the further right wing drift of the DNC.
Good job.
I’m also 43, every single election I’ve heard the same exact argument from the DNC. Every. Single. Election.
And nothing changes.
You know the definition of insanity? That’s the DNC.
