41. Let's not forget that there is a whole lot of moblike politicians in Macomb County.

I live here. There is a rabid trumper in my neighborhood and he is very "involved" in the GOP political scene though he isn't a politician. He has no morals, ethics or consideration for others. There isn't any law or rule he thinks applies to him. He once said to one of my neighbors whom I'm very good friends with that "they can't touch me because I know people higher up at the county level". The Shelby Twp. clerk is one of the fake electors. Then there's Lucido who several women have claimed harasses them at work. Lisa McClain is my rep and she had zero experience, but the powers that be ensconced her lily white, Catholic ass in the House if she would do their bidding. Her very first vote right after being sworn in was to not certify the election of President Biden.

I could go on but I don't trust the people who run Macomb County and that includes Mark Hackel who is supposedly a Democrat but when recently questioned who he'll support in the election he waffled. My memory is fuzzy on this, but wasn't his father in trouble for something when he was the county sheriff?
