Gretchen Whitmer’s newfound friendship with Donald Trump appears to be short lived, as the Michigan Democrat governor slammed the president a day after appearing with him at an event.
The 2028 presidential hopeful was humiliated by Trump in a made-for-TV moment in her home state.
While speaking to Michigan National Guardsmen on Tuesday, the president spotted Whitmer in the crowd and then called her up for a spur-of-the-moment address.
Both that and a bizarre moment where she covered her face with folders and looked embarrassed during a trip to see President Trump have drawn ridicule from liberals.
Speaking to left-leaning Pod Save America Wednesday, she appeared to have finally rediscovered her dislike for Trump when former Barack Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau asked if the U.S. was in a constitutional crisis.
‘We are, I think that no one is above the law. The thought that we’ve got an administration that is just blatantly violating court orders should, I think, scare everybody. This is a very serious moment,’ she said.
