From the Associated Press (currently suing officials of the Malignant Fascist's regime for First Amendment violations) on the Malignant Fascist's White House dinner for governors:
"[Michigan Governor Gretchen] Whitmer said she sat next to Trump at a White House dinner on Saturday night.
'I was the only Democrat at the table. I was a little surprised. I think everyone in the room was a little surprised, to be honest,”'she said. 'But I took the opportunity to talk a little bit about tariffs.'" (our emphasis)
Are you proud of that, Governor? It likely means you're going to be the target of a brief MF charm offensive, followed by threats to comply. The article continues:
"At discussion panels and news conferences at the meetings, state leaders struck a conciliatory tone.
'We always hope that people can disagree in a way that elevates the discourse and tries to come to a common solution,' said Democratic Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado, the association’s chair, when asked about the Trump-Mills exchange. 'I don’t think that disagreement was necessarily a model of that,' he said. [snip]
'We’re not going to sit idly by and let our rights be attacked,' [NY Governor Kathy Hochul] said. 'We’ll work with you when there’s common ground, no doubt about it, let’s build great projects and infrastructure. There’s areas where we’re going to work with you on immigration and getting the violent criminals off our streets....'" (our emphasis)
Conciliatory tone? Their bending the knee is cowardice, as the MF starts to dismantle the Government they rely on for assistance, throwing their constituents out of work, not to mention the MF's other assaults on democracy.
At least there were some signs of resistance:
"Hundreds of miles from Washington, another 2028 contender took a different direction.
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, in his State of the State address on Wednesday, compared the Trump administration to the Nazi movement and criticized members of his own party, declaring, 'Going along to get along does not work.'
Pritzker’s response resonated with some key voters.
'We didn’t elect Democrats to become collaborators with our oppressors,' said Lori Goldman, founder of 'Fems for Dems,”'a Michigan-based group focused on voter turnout.
'We are beyond angry and we are organizing against Democrats that sell us out,' she said." (our emphasis)
Take note of these Dem Governors who, after the MF attacked one of their own for her stand on transgender rights, met and dined with the MF, who has zero intention of working with them on anything that doesn't benefit him. Sell outs need to get voted out.
