“supports Second Trump Term”—The Governor of Michigan Says He Will Not Vote for Biden Because of The Gaza War!
CNS News– On Sunday, Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer rejected demands to boycott Joe Biden over his Israel-Gaza conflict, claiming it could help Trump win re-election. “It’s important not to lose sight of the fact that any vote that’s not cast for Joe Biden supports a second Trump term,” she said on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday. “A Trump second term would be devastating. Both on fundamental rights and democracy at home and in international policy.
This man supported Muslim bans.” Whitmer, Biden’s 2024 campaign co-chair, said she didn’t know what to anticipate from the protest vote. The sole Palestinian-American Democrat in Congress, Rashida Tlaib, urged Democrats to vote “uncommitted” in Michigan’s 27 February primary last week.
A country that embraces war, weapons, and destruction is unacceptable. To support life. We stand up for every life lost in Gaza… You can elevate our voices this way. Don’t make us more invisible. We feel ignored and unseen by our administration, she added in a Twitter video.

“If you want us louder, vote uncommitted here.” Layla Elabed, Tlaib’s sister, manages to Listen to Michigan, which is encouraging uncommitted votes. At least 30 public leaders in southeast Michigan, including Dearborn’s Arab American mayor Abdullah Hammoud, endorse the group.
“Biden must earn our vote through a dramatic policy change,” the group states online. “President Biden has been a successful candidate by representing a broad coalition, but he’s not representing the vast majority of Democrats who want a ceasefire and an end to his funding of Israel’s war in Gaza.”
Michigan is an important swing state in November, but Biden will easily win the Democratic primary there. Biden needs a Democratic base and moderate support to win. In recognition of it, Biden sent top advisers to Dearborn to speak with officials earlier this month. Jon Finer, a deputy national security adviser, admitted administration mistakes during the meeting.

“We are very well aware that we have missteps in the course of responding to this crisis since October 7,” he stated, according to a New York Times recording of the meeting. “We left a very damaging impression based on a wholly inadequate public accounting of how much the president, administration, and country value Palestinian lives. Indeed, that started early in the war.”
