Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer Accuses Trump Of Inciting Domestic Terrorism
October 18, 2020The Sunday morning "news" shows that serve as launching pads for the week's chosen anti-Trump propaganda were buzzing this morning with the latest manufactured crisis.
Michigan's rabidly authoritarian Governor Gretchen Whitmer was trotted out to promote the big lie that President Trump is inciting domestic terrorism, a tiresome old trope that has been bandied about for years but is being relaunched in the weeks prior to the election.

The Democrats have their panties in a bunch over Trump's Saturday rally when he paid a visit to the Wolverine State and the crowd which was clearly deeply distrustful of Gov. Whitmer for her draconian lockdowns chanted "lock her up" which at least theoretically falls under their right to free speech.
The rally took place in Muskegon with Trump working to capitalize on resentment for Whitner over her cruel and arbitrary decrees that were recently ruled unconstitutional by the state's high court but she has flouted the ruling and continues to rule with an iron fist.
According to Whitmer:
“It is dangerous, not just for me and my family, but for public servants everywhere who are doing their jobs and trying to protect their fellow Americans. People of good will on both sides of the aisle need to step up and call this out and bring the heat down,”
Whitmer played the victim card to the hilt after the FBI busted up an alleged plot to kidnap her that has the suspicious appearance of instead being an entrapment scheme conveniently timed to be revealed weeks before the election for political means.
Via CNBC, "Michigan Gov. Whitmer says Trump is inciting domestic terrorism after ‘lock her up’ chants at rally":
Michigan’s Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said on Sunday that President Donald Trump was fueling domestic terrorism a day after his criticisms of her Covid-19 mitigation efforts during a rally in the state spurred his supporters to chant “lock her up!”
“The president is at it again, and inspiring and incentivizing and inciting this kind of domestic terrorism. It is wrong. It’s got to end,” Whitmer said during an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
At his campaign rally in Muskegon, Michigan on Saturday, Trump criticized what he called Whitmer’s “draconian, unscientific lockdown.”
“You got to get your governor to open your state and get your schools open. The schools have to be open, right?” Trump said.
Schools throughout the state have already been permitted to open, though many are dealing with new coronavirus outbreaks.
His comments came less than two weeks after 13 individuals were charged in connection with a plot to kidnap Whitmer and “try” her for treason. A 14th person has since been charged. Whitmer had previously suggested that Trump, who has attacked her lockdown measures as being overly harsh, was “complicit” in the plot because of his rhetoric.
Whitmer said that it was disturbing to her that the president had resumed his attacks “10 days after a plot to kidnap, put me on trial and execute me” was uncovered.

As for the plot that Whitmer keeps harping on, defense attorneys for the alleged kidnappers claim that it was just "big talk between crackpots" according to a Detroit Free Press story.
That chatter nonetheless was given high priority from the same FBI that couldn't be bothered to investigate the Hunter Biden laptop and dispatched a team of agents to investigate a hate crime hoax by black NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace.
The same FBI that devoted vast resources to a plot to entrap General Michael Flynn and President Trump that was presided over by officials at the highest levels including fired director James Comey so there is reason for skepticism as to the nature of Whitmer's claims.
The hyping of the Muskegon rally as Trump inciting terrorism is clearly an orchestrated slime campaign with Speaker Nancy Pelosi appearing on ABC's "This Week" to chew the fat with Clinton operative George Stephanopoulos who is coming off of giving Joe Biden a tongue bath at last week's rigged town hall.
According to Pelosi:
“The president has to realize that words of the president of the United States weigh a ton and in our political dialogue to inject fear tactics into it, especially a woman governor and her family is so irresponsible.”
That the Democrats and their winged monkey in the media are leeching onto the "lock her up" chant at a Trump rally is a sign that nothing else that they have thrown at the POTUS is working and they will be emptying the cabinet over the next two weeks to see if something sticks.
