Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer refrains from commenting on protesters chanting 'Death to America' at an anti-Israel protest, but discusses the potential impact of President Biden's handling of the Middle East conflict on Michigan's vote in the upcoming election.
Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer remained silent on protesters recently chanting, 'Death to America' at an anti-Israel protest in her home state, but did weigh in on whether President Biden ’s handling of the war in the Middle East could cost him the battleground state in November . 'The state of Michigan is always going to be a close race, no matter what, under what scenario.
Earlier this month, viral video circulated online showing protesters at an Al-Quds Day rally in Dearborn chanting, 'Death to America' and 'Death to Israel.' Whitmer has remained silent on condemning the chants, while the Biden administration condemned 'these abhorrent and antisemitic remarks in the strongest terms' in comment to Fox Digital last week.
Welker did not specifically ask Whitmer about the protest earlier this month or the chants, but her lack of condemnation on the matter for more than a week has resulted in critical op-eds and outrage from state Republicans. Fox News Digital reached out to Whitmer’s office again Sunday, asking whether she condemns the chants, but did not immediately receive a reply.
