Michigan Governor Goes on a PR Crusade Blaming Trump for the Kidnapping Plots Against Her

Last Thursday, 13 people were charged by state and federal authorities over alleged kidnapping plots against Michigan democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer, as well as targeting law enforcement officers and trying to “instigate a civil war.”

In early 2020, the FBI was made aware that a group of individuals were discussing the violent overthrow of certain government and law-enforcement components. They wanted to bring others together to take violent action against multiple state governments that they believe are violating the Constitution.

Without evidence, Whitmer wasted no time blaming President Trump [1]for the kidnapping plots.

Whitmer and her surrogates were all over the media pushing their story about Trump’s rhetoric causing the kidnapping plot to happen…CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, Washington Post, op-eds, press conferences, Tweets and more. It was a never ending cavalcade of lies and accusations about our president.

Whitmer tried to tie Trump to the anarchists who plotted to kidnap her by saying, “When our leaders speak, their words matter. They carry weight. When our leaders meet with, encourage or fraternize with domestic terrorists, they legitimize their actions. And they are complicit.”

The democrats and their leftist media friends compared these anarchists to ISIS but have never done the same when talking about Antifa or Black Lives Matter who use arson and other violence in their attempts to overthrow the government and go after police and politicians.

Whitmer blamed Trump for encouraging extremism, which is a lie, and failed to mention that she not only praised the racial justice protests that turned into riots, she actually participated in one.

She failed to mention that nowhere in the indictment is the word “Trump.”

She failed to mention that these anarchists have been seen on video [2] saying Trump is the enemy. One of the suspects arrested appears on video saying, “Trump is not your friend, dude. And it amazes me that people actually believe that, when he’s shown over and over and over again that he’s a tyrant.”

She failed to mention that many of these anarchists wanted to go after and kill cops, which is definitely not an idea held by Trump supporters.

Some of the words of these anarchists sound very Antica-like when one of them said, “I’m just so sick of it. That’s what it’s gonna take for us to take it back, we’re just gonna have to everything’s gonna have to be annihilated man. We’re gonna topple it all dude. It’s what great frickin’ conquerors, man, we’re just gonna conquer every f-ing thing man.”

One of the videos of the suspects even has an anarchist flag in the background that is often seen at Antifa riots. Another, Daniel Harris, is a Black Lives Matter supporter and attended a protest in June [3].

These are anarchists, not Trump supporters, and Whitmer knows it.

However, the truth does not stop the democrats and Whitmer, acting as co-chair of the Biden campaign, from taking advantage of the situation and condemning Trump for days on every media outlet available.

Criticizing Trump for things, real and imagined, is Whitmer’s favorite hobby. Her democratic friends expect no less from her.

And Biden, who is usually without knowledge of what’s going on around him, and lying about what he DOES know about also blamed Trump. He said on Thursday, “The words of a president matter. They can move markets. They can bring peace. They can bring war. They can heal divisions or incite violence.”

This from a man who says Antifa is an idea [4] and waited months before condemning the arson and rioting going on in our country.

And let’s see… who was it that foiled the plot against the governor? Oh yeah, it was Trump’s Justice Department. It was the FBI.

Trump responded to Whitmer’s idiocy in a Tweet by saying, “Rather than say thank you, she calls me a White Supremacist—while Biden and Democrats refuse to condemn Antifa, Anarchists, Looters and Mobs that burn down Democrat run cities.”
