Michigan AG says as far as her department is concerned, Trump is 'no longer welcome'

On CNN Thursday, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, who had warned President Donald Trump to follow the law on protective equipment at his speech at the Ford plant, suggested he will not be allowed to hold similar events going forward, and that she will be speaking to Ford about its failure to enforce the law and their own policy.

“Is the president no longer welcome in Michigan?” asked anchor Wolf Blitzer.

“Well, I would say speaking on behalf of my department and my office, that’s exactly right,” said Nessel. “Today’s events were extremely disappointing and yet totally predictable … the president is like a petulant child who refuses to follow the rules. I have to say this is no joke.”

“I think the message he sent is the same message since he first took office in 2017, which is, I don’t care about you, I don’t care about your health, about your safety, your welfare. I don’t care about anyone but myself,” said Nessel.

Reckless Endangerment

reckless endangerment n:

the criminal offense of recklessly engaging in conduct that creates a substantial risk of serious physical injury or death to another person. Whether you meant any harm or not, creating a situation that puts someone else at risk is illegal.

Examples can include driving carelessly, car accidents, workplace accidents, child abuse, hospital abuse, etc.

Note: Reckless endangerment is a misdemeanor but can be a felony when a deadly weapon is involved.

She articulated the issues and the concerns with Trump's conduct today very clearly.

That does not seem likely to play well for Trump where Biden is already +5.5% in the poll of polls for that battleground state.

Funny isn't it how all those brown skinned people we have in the filthy private for profit concentration camps, malnourished, dirty, pining for their parents - these same assholes that now want to break the rules for their FREE-DUMB smugly said the immigrants who came here seeking asylum in good faith were interned in the camps because they broke the rules.

So, I guess brown people have one set of rules and white people yet another...
