Another proud week for Michigan

A platform in the republican party

Amidst a Detroit Metro Times story this week about a republican Facebook page (since shut down) wherein members advocated for the burning, shooting, beating, and raping of (among others) Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, M-08 representative Elissa Slotkin, Michigan congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, and Minnesota congresswoman Ilhan Omar, State Senator Peter Lucido (R--of course--Shelby Township) responded to a question about his participation in said group by Michigan Advance reporter Allison Donahue by suggesting that a group of boys nearby could have " a lot of fun" with her.  And then proceeded to explain away his remarks as just the way he talks to young women.

How this utter cretin could even still be a state senator is beyond me. 

While Lucido did eventually give the usual half-assed republican apology, it's important to remember--especially as we vote this November--that Lucido and those who commented in the above noted Facebook page are not the exception in today's republican party, they are the rule.

And we should let any business thinking about setting up shop here in the Wolverine State know exactly what Michigan republicans think of their female employees, and their mothers, wives, and daughters.

Fuck Donald Trump,
