Trump rally crowd chants 'lock her up' about Michigan Gov. Whitmer, target of alleged kidnapping plo

Source: USA Today

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump slammed Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer during a rally in the state Saturday, prompting repeated chants of "lock her up" from the crowd weeks after the FBI foiled a kidnapping plot aimed at the Democratic leader.

"Be careful of her and her attorney general because you know they're like in charge of the ballot stuff," Trump said during a rally in Muskegon, Michigan. "How the hell do I put my political and our country's political life in the hands of a pure partisan like that?"

Trump has frequently attacked Whitmer for her administration's effort to slow the spread of COVID-19 by imposing strict lockdowns of gatherings in the state, which the Republican president believes went too far . But the remarks combined with the "lock her up" chants drew renewed attention from Democrats following the kidnapping plot.

More than a dozen members of an anti-government group have been charged in the plot.

Guess who is the "real pure partisan" from this sentence? ...........................................

""How the hell do I put my political and our country's political life in the hands of a pure partisan like that?"

Trump is much too stupid to know that his support will go down to about 30 to 35% and it will be the worst loss in the last 50 years..(Perhaps worse than McGovern's "72" loss)
....And McGovern was sane, and Trump is insane.
