It maybe shouldn’t have been such a shock, though. All three of the “blue” states Trump won actually had a history of electing Republicans at the state level. Michigan in particular had been fully taken over since 2010 by Republicans, who then spent years gutting unions, restricting abortion, loosening environmental protections, and generally just turning a Republican policy wish list into law. So Trump winning Michigan was, in a way, just the culmination of a years-long drift to the right there. But by 2022, something had changed dramatically. In a midterm election where Republicans were favored, Democrats won every branch of elected government in Michigan — governor, state House, and state Senate. The state Senate in particular had not been under Democratic control since 1984. And Democrats got busy using their new power immediately: repealing much of the right-wing legislation of the previous years, passing strong LGBTQ protections, quadrupling a tax credit for the poor, and allocating a billion dollars for the auto industry to transition to electric cars.

U.S. President Donald Trump visited the Ford Rawsonville Components Plant in Ypsilanti, Michigan on Thursday and met with African-American leaders as part of his tour in the facility. The visit came a day after Trump threatened to withhold federal funds over the state’s expanded vote-by-mail effort. “We don’t want them to do mail in ballots because it’s going to lead to total election fraud,” Trump said, allowing for some exceptions including himself “Now, if somebody has to mail it in because they’re sick, or by the way because they live in the White House and they have to vote in Florida and they won’t be in Florida. But there’s a reason for it, that’s OK.” Trump said he may support another fiscal stimulus bill to help prop up the economy during the coronavirus outbreak, though he did not provide any details on what he would like to see in such legislation. “I think we will. I think we’re going to be helping people out, there could be one more nice shot,” Trump told reporters at a Ford factory. Trump was not seen wearing a mask while delivering his remarks or talking to reporters, however, he said he did wear a mask while touring some parts of the facility “but didn’t want to give the press the pleasure of seeing it.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca/news/6969041/trump-china-hong-kong-protests/ Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Like Global News on Facebook HERE: http://bit.ly/255GMJQ Follow Global News on Twitter HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global [More]
