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.
So, according to both Reddit and Lemmy, we need to be a ONE political party system, where we vote on ONE type of President every election… that’s called communism.
Who’s saying that? How are single party states a left wing thing? For every communist totalitarian there have been many right wing totalitarians, not to mention royalty. Right wing media is lying to you. Question this shit.
This entire sub is saying not to vote for Trump because “democracy will end!” Which we all know is bullshit. Democracy will go on. It’s a scare tactic from the Left. Everyone around here is basically saying that we should only support a Democrat President. That’s supporting one party, one person. Americans are very diverse, we need different candidates with different perspectives.
