Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union, tyrannical Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) smeared Florida’s Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, calling his governing style “incredibly destructive.”
Asked if DeSantis poses a real threat to Democrats if he ends up being the Republican presidential nominee, Whitmer replied, “I don’t really know Ron DeSantis, so it’s hard for me to say anything real substantiative, other than I’ll say this – when I took my oath of office, I took an oath to be the governor for all of the people of Michigan. I don’t wage culture wars. I fight culture wars because I’m focused on solving problems. I think it’s incredibly destructive when people just try to pit others against one another, stoke fear. I think that’s a really destructive way to lead. And so that, you know, we’ll watch and see what happens. As I said, I don’t know him.”
Host propagandist Jake Tapper said, “You just described him, in your view.”
The COVID lockdown queen Whitmer said, “I think that there are people who are out there that stoke fear and anger and misinformation to help themselves politically. And I’m not saying, you know, who I think falls into that category. I’m just saying, that’s not how I operate. Every governor takes an oath to serve all the people in their state, whether they voted for them or not. That’s what should drive every decision.”
The Democrats fear DeSantis precisely because he is effective at pushing back in the culture war that the Democrats themselves started and have been waging for half a century.
