[Karah Rucker]

Michigan’S DEMOCRATIC Governor – Gretchen Whitmer – is facing CONSERVATIVE backlash after a recent social media post.

THE GOVERNOR – PLAYING ALONG WITH A TIKTOK TREND – WHILE PROMOTING THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

THE CLIP IS SHORT – ONLY 8 SECONDS LONG – 

HERE IT IS.

THE VIDEO WAS POSTED BY PODCASTER LIZ PLANK.

THE GOVERNOR – SPORTING A “HARRIS WALZ HAT”.

LATE NIGHT TALK SHOW HOST STEPHEN COLBERT GETTING IN ON IT OVER THE SUMMER.

THE TREND? PLAYING THE SONG “DILEMMA” BY NELLY –

AND HAND FEEDING FOOD TO SOMEONE.

THE DORITOS CHIPS HELD BY WHITMER – BEING A PLAY ON WORDS.

THE CAPTION OF THE VIDEO — IS A PROMOTION OF THE CHIPS ACT PASSED BY PRESIDENT BIDEN IN 2022. SAYING “Chips aren’t just delicious, the CHIPS Act is a game-changer for U.S. tech and manufacturing. DONALD TRUMP WOULD PUT THAT AT RISK.”

SOME REPUBLICANS ARE BLASTING THIS VIDEO AS TOO CLOSELY RESEMBLING A CATHOLIC TRADITION OF COMMUNION –

A FORMER TRUMP ADVISOR – FIRING BACK ON X –

“Let’s be clear what’s happening in this video. 

Gov. Whitmer of Michigan is pretending to give communion to an leftist podcaster on her knees, using a Dorito as the Eucharist while wearing a Harris-Walz hat.

Do they want ZERO Catholic votes for Harris?”

TWO REPUBLICAN STATE SENATORS ARE ALSO CRITICIZING THE VIDEO –

CALLING IT “WEIRD.”

WHITMER’S OFFICE RESPONDING TO THE CRITICISM.

SAYING “The governor’s social media is well known for infusing her communications with pop culture. The fact that people are paying attention to a video promoting President Biden’s CHIPS Act proves it’s working.”
