Hey friend,
One of the most bizarre things I’ve heard since Republicans announced their choice of Senator JD Vance as their VP nominee is that his background as an Ohioan will help Trump in states like Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan.
Whoever has said that clearly doesn’t know much about Michigan — we wouldn’t support a Buckeye for dog catcher, never mind as Vice President of the United States. Because although Michigan is full of independent-minded voters, one thing can always bring us together as a state: our dislike of Ohio.
And unfortunately, being a Buckeye is not even the worst thing you can say about Vance. He suggested that women should stay in violent marriages, celebrated the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and opposed exceptions for women needing an abortion after rape and incest.
He also supported plans to cut Social Security and Medicare and privatization to a ton of federal services, among many other issues that he’s on the wrong side of.
Those aren’t Michigan values.
