Remember when Trump referred to Michigan governor Gretchan Whitmer as “that woman in Michigan”? So, of course she’s gotten all sorts of glowing praise from the utterly unbiased media. What does the media think of this?

While some are saying this is fake, well, um
(WNEM) On Thursday, April 9, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer extended her “Stay Home, Stay Safe,” executive order through the end of April.
As part of Executive Order 2020-42, Whitmer also placed restrictions on stores including how many people are allowed in the store at a time and what type of items they can sell.
Large stores must also close areas of the store that are dedicated to carpeting, flooring, furniture, garden centers, plant nurseries, or paint.
So, no seeds.
(Bridge) Brian Tillery walked into Home Depot on Friday morning and did a double take.
“What — they’re not selling paint?†he exclaimed.
Signs taped to orange buckets lined with yellow caution tape told the story:
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s latest stay-home order to battle the coronavirus pandemic allows home improvement stores to stay open, but only to sell “products necessary to maintain the safety, sanitation and basic operations of residences.†(snip)
Whitmer’s order also requires large retailers to close carpet or flooring, furniture, garden and plant nursery sections, either by blocking them, placing signs in aisles, posting prominent signs or removing goods from shelves. Bottle return sections at grocery stores must also remain closed.
Starting Monday, large retailers cannot advertise products that are not groceries, medical supplies or items necessary to maintain the safety, sanitation and basic operation of residences.
If you own a second house in Michigan, you are not allowed to travel there. Landscaping businesses are closed by her decree.
Whitmer doesn’t care – she’s too busy auditioning for the role of VP.
I hate to say it but the feds may have to step in here soon, this is ridiculous. https://t.co/FP911yDW0J

Strange when a Democrat like Andrew Cuomo or Gavin Newsome seem reasonable.
