Gretchen Whitmer At DNC Calls Kamala Harris 'Total Badass'

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer got one of the most valuable speaking slots at the Democratic National Convention ― on its last night and in prime time, just a few speakers before presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ acceptance speech. “One day, when you’re just trying to get everyone out the door, a news alert goes off,” Whitmer said, describing an imaginary crisis. What if it’s that man from Mar-a-Lago?” By contrast, Whitmer said, Harris is “tough, tested and a total badass.” Of course, people have said the same thing about Whitmer, who famously sparred with Trump during the COVID-19 pandemic and has emerged as one of the nation’s fiercest defenders of abortion rights. When Biden announced his decision, Whitmer quickly said she wasn’t interested and backed Harris ― and then, shortly after that, said she wasn’t interested in becoming Harris’ running mate.
