President Donald Trump and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer traded barbs following the foiled kidnapping attempt of the Democrat governor, with Whitmer accusing Trump of being “complicit” and he saying she was exploiting the incident to launch an unfounded attack against him.
“My Justice Department and Federal Law Enforcement announced today that they foiled a dangerous plot against the Governor of Michigan. Rather than say thank you, she calls me a White Supremacist,” Trump wrote in a tweet. While Whitmer did not explicitly label Trump a “White Supremacist,” she falsely claimed he has not condemned white supremacists and instead egged them on to action.
