EASTERN MICHIGAN — The weather is changing in Michigan as Election Day draws near. Leaves are turning, the air is getting colder, and Michiganders are anxious to get back to work after a brutal seven months of pandemic lockdowns.

Last week the state’s governor, Gretchen Whitmer, who made a name for herself with some of the harshest lockdown restrictions in the country, was rebuked by the state supreme court. Her rolling and often arbitrary executive orders, which closed businesses across the state and left thousands jobless, violated the Michigan Constitution, the court ruled.

Sounds great to me. Whitmer is a petty tyrant.

Her orders violated Michigan's Constitution? I wonder if Rat Party Marxist whores like her understand that they're not only required to protect rights guaranteed by a state's Constitution but also rights guaranteed by the UNITED STATES Constitution. Residents of every state,every county,every city in the country have certain inalienable rights,God-given rights.

They’re running the ballot-printing machines in Detroit overtime. Gonna have to find a LOT more ballots in church basements and car trunks than anticipated.

Michigan Governor (gag) Gretchen Whitmer launched the harshest lockdown restrictions in the country......
her arbitrary executive orders closed businesses across the state left thousands jobless.
She was b****-slapped by
the state's supreme court, asserting Whitmer violated the Michigan Constitution.

Now, Trump might be looking at a huge Michigan win.

Yet, a-n-o-t-h-e-r blue state trending Trump is Nevada....he should send a big thank you card to the missteps of Steve Sisolak, Gov of Nevada....

Gotta love the Covid-19 fallout as the governors (and mayors) started channeling their inner Adolf's and began issuing inane orders like in the 1940'a era booted brownshirts.

EXAMPLE Democrat Cali Gov Gavin Newsom signed a bill allowing judges to decide whether to list a man as a sex offender for having oral or anal sex with a same-sex minor. The bill lowers the penalties for adults who have sex with ‘willing’ same-sex minors. Judges decide if the adult has to register as sex offender if the offender is within 10 years of age of the victim. (Excerpt) Read more at thegatewaypundit.com ...

============================

IT ALL STARTED WITH A TRUMP ROLL---One of Trump’s best trolls:

When Covid surfaced, he quietly said he would not interfere in the states, b/c (drum roll please)....”the governors and Mayors know what they’re doing.”

ROTFLOL....this unleashed the liberal Dems who began dictating to their citizens, issuing orders left and right.

Recalls, threats of impeachment, protests, outright defiance as the people rose up against the liberal know-it-alls. Democratic govs and mayors are now taking big hits for the riots, unrest, destruction and violence they’ve allowed to explode across the country.

I live in the area they are referring to. Many many Trump signs and one Biden sign. A lot of flags of cars and trucks and huge Trump banners. This area is going red. Bigly and yuge.

We finally identify the Obama legacy. A solidly red Michigan with jobs, updated infrastructure and religious liberty.

There’s no question that Dem tyrants have unleashed passionate Trump supporters in several states.

The question is whether that passion translates into actual winning.

Many people have been brainwashed by the media. And there’s an entire generation of feelings-driven voters who don’t like Trump’s aggressive, manly style.

Trump was propelled into office by the fury of those who had seen too much.
<><>They’d watched for decades as an insulated elected class—Democrat and Republican alike—broke promises, failed to solve problems, and blamed it on the system.

<><>Trump voters watched the swamp take over—IRS targeters, self-righteous prosecutors, zealous regulators—armed with stunning powers and a mentality that they were entitled to make the rules, to tell the little people what was best for them.

<><>Voters fumed over the double standard. Hillary Clinton deleted government emails with abandon, while a 77-year-old Navy veteran went to prison for building a pond in contravention of “navigable water” rules. (h/t Kimberly Strassel)
