NateDo you approve of Whitmer's meeting with Trump? She says she was tricked, believing it was a private meeting, but it ended up being a recorded press conference.

TheicebaerTrump lädt Whitmer zum Gespräch und stellt sie dann vor versammeltem Stab bloß. Er verwechselt Macht mit Demütigung. Wo andere Vertrauen aufbauen, sät er Misstrauen und Scham. Trump betreibt kein Regieren, er inszeniert Erniedrigung – wie ein Diktator im Maßanzug. Wer Führung durch Fallen ersetzt, regiert nur noch über Trümmer.<a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/Whitmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Whitmer</a> <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/Dem%C3%BCtigungStattF%C3%BChrung" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DemütigungStattFührung</a> <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/USPoliticsFeed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USPoliticsFeed</a> <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/KeineStaatskunstNurShow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KeineStaatskunstNurShow</a>

Adam CookThe political ineptitude and economic incompetence of Governor <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23Whitmer" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Whitmer</a> is frustrating as hell for a state that is at pivotal economic time.

Adam CookThat matters because the <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23Michigan" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Michigan</a> economy is not robust and not appropriately-diversified so feckless leaders are sort of “forced” into a position of weakness.

Zoey 🏳️‍⚧️☀️“Whitmer told Bridge that ‘I know that there will be times when we're not on the same page and we'll be at odds,’ but said she is more interested in collaborating with Trump than fighting him.”EXTREMELY disappointing response from Whitmer to the current state of affairs.

nathans :ms_weed:Group says Michigan is at the cusp of achieving gender parity with women in elected office • Michigan AdvanceMichigan ranks third in the country for the state with the best gender parity for women in elected office, according to rankings from RepresentWomen, a non-profit organization tracking gender representation in elected office in the U.S.With a 49.5 out of 100 score, Michigan is at the edge of gender parity. The two states that outrank Michigan, Wisconsin and Maine, have achieved gender parity with Wisconsin scoring 51.8 and Maine scoring 54.1 this year.Michigan has never strayed far from the top ten states since RepresentWomen began compiling its annual Gender Parity Index in 2013, but since the 2018 election when women were elected to lead all three of Michigan’s statewide executive offices, the state has been inching towards parity.Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Michigan’s second ever female governor, often speaks on workforce and educational opportunities for women in the state, embracing a “wear pink, get sh*t done” mentality to femininity in politics.Last summer when the “Barbie” movie was coming out, Whitmer’s office came out with an unofficial “Governor Barbie” calling for empowerment for children and women to seek out their dream jobs and roles.“Together, we work to create spaces and structures that empower women to show up as they are and allow them [to] lead from the front,” Whitmer posted on “X” in July of 2023.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Politics</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#News</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Michigan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Michigan</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Whitmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Whitmer</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/GretchenWhitmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GretchenWhitmer</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/GenderParity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenderParity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/GenderEquality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenderEquality</a> <a href="https://michiganadvance.com/briefs/group-says-michigan-is-at-the-cusp-of-achieving-gender-parity-with-women-in-elected-office/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://michiganadvance.com/briefs/group-says-michigan-is-at-the-cusp-of-achieving-gender-parity-with-women-in-elected-office/</a>

Chuck DarwinMs. Harris is seeking to select a running mate on a highly compressed timeline, aiming to make her choice by Aug. 7 — a little more than two weeks after she entered the race to replace President Biden on the Democratic ticket.Besides Mr. Cooper, those known to be under serious consideration include Gov. Josh <a href="https://c.im/tags/Shapiro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Shapiro</a> of Pennsylvania, Gov. Tim <a href="https://c.im/tags/Walz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Walz</a> of Minnesota, Gov. Andy <a href="https://c.im/tags/Beshear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Beshear</a> of Kentucky, Senator Mark <a href="https://c.im/tags/Kelly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kelly</a> of Arizona and the transportation secretary, Pete <a href="https://c.im/tags/Buttigieg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Buttigieg</a>.The remaining leading candidates are all white men. All except Mr. Buttigieg have a history of electoral success in politically divided states. Mr. Beshear was elected twice in deep-red Kentucky, Mr. Walz represented a conservative House district before being elected governor, Mr. Shapiro won his attorney general race in 2016 when Mr. Trump carried Pennsylvania and Mr. Kelly has won Arizona twice in the last four years.Mr. Shapiro on Monday campaigned for Ms. Harris in the Philadelphia suburbs with Gov. Gretchen <a href="https://c.im/tags/Whitmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Whitmer</a> of Michigan, who may have been a vice-presidential contender had she not taken herself out of the running last week.Two people with knowledge of the vice-presidential vetting process said the list had been narrowed to five, though the Harris campaign has vetted a dozen potential running mates. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the private deliberations.The only other vice-presidential contender known to have withdrawn from the process is Adm. William H. <a href="https://c.im/tags/McRaven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#McRaven</a>, the former commander of the United States Special Operations Command, who publicly took himself out of consideration last week.Ms. Harris’s vetting process began last week and is expected to run through this weekend. She has yet to meet in person with any of the potential running mates. The initial candidate interviews with members of her campaign staff have begun over video calls.Several of those contenders have been campaigning publicly — and thus auditioning — for Ms. Harris in recent days. Mr. Buttigieg appeared on Fox News over the weekend and is set to appear on “The Daily Show” with Jon Stewart on Monday night. Mr. Walz has been a regular on CNN, MSNBC and Fox News — and even had a profile in the magazine Runner’s World. Mr. Beshear campaigned in Georgia.<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/29/us/politics/roy-cooper-kamala-harris-vp.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/29/us/politics/roy-cooper-kamala-harris-vp.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare</a>
