I have written her asking she call up the Michigan National Guard. I’m very proud that I got to vote for her and AG Dana Nessel.

So proud I photographed the ballot.

However, I am absolutely disgusted with the reputation Michigan is getting with these idiots. You and I both know that they could care less if a barbershop isn't open today (grooming doesn't seem to be their strong suit), but they just want to get their mugs in the news. With people like these there will always be another issue they won't be happy with. They live their lives with negativity and hatred and are just overall miserable people.

I'm not familiar with Michigan, but from the news it seems like a lawless state.

Last poll I saw 80 pct of Michiganders were against what they were doing.

It's amazing how that picture of those guys armed at the State House changed my perception. I think I read they're having another one tomorrow?
