I can't speak for anywhere else, but our state's unemployment rate owes nothing to either President Trump or President Biden. Our governor put a recovery plan in place and followed it, first statewide and then county by county and it has worked. Our current unemployment rate sits at about 4 percent and we have more open jobs than people to fill them in all sectors from food service to industrial and technology. He took heat from the Covid deniers, all governors did and still do, but when you look at surrounding states, our daily numbers are lower, positivity rate is lower, vaccine rate is higher and if a county has number issues then restrictions go back in place.
Any gains in Michigan have been in spite of our failure of a governor.


Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

I wish I could screen shot and post it here, but my unemployment extension got cutback due to the Michigan economy getting out of crisis unemployment. I will see if I can find the template online or an article.
Here's an article on that: https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/mic ... -benefits/

I guess we don't need the $1.9T handout...
No, but you need to stop bagging on Gretchen and realize how awesome she is.
They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Gretchen Whitmer is terrible. She has no tangible accomplishments.
