Is this the corrupt Huckabee that uses $19K of taxpayer money to buy 4K podiums from her friends who don't sell podiums? She kept the dollar amount just below a threshold requiring more reporting.
The person is a bonified swamp creature.

u/paul-arized 1d ago
Surprised she didn't ship that lectern to MI to use at this joke of an event.

The Trumpsters have embraced "trolling the lib" even if it means they are stealing and lying to each other. It probably would have been hit in that crowd.

Please don’t take this the wrong way but bonified gave me a good chuckle.
Who has been bonifying her?

Don’t forget that she bought that podium from a friend who she then took a trip to Europe with… I wonder how that trip got funded. Weird coincidence I’m sure. Shortly after it all blew up, she castrated the state FOIA so that those pesky reporters couldn’t ask questions about who she was traveling with anymore. But don’t worry, the state’s MAGA AG said it was all cool. She’s a Trump grifter to the core and the state politics are brazenly corrupt.

These are the dangers when blindly voting for party over country. Some of the people running for office aren’t qualified to run their own thoughts let alone a state or federal government. But here we are.

That still doesn’t explain Huckabee’s presence. Any local republican would have been better than her. What do I know, I’m liberal. Magas process differently.

There’s a literal Senate race in MI over Stabenow’s seat. Why he didn’t have his hand picked bootlicker candidate with him I have no idea.

Perhaps they are under the impression they are going to lose it, so are not bothering?

Maybe, I would be surprised though. Critical thinking isn’t high on their list of abilities.

u/LuminousRaptor 21h ago
Last I saw Slotkin and Rogers were neck and neck. She's consistently up 1 to 3% in the polling being right in line with the top of the ticket. It's a winnable race for either side depending on turnout and how the swing voters swing.
No reason why Rogers shouldn't be there if the GOP wants to help down ballot races.... Unless of course they think he's not got the charisma to hold a town hall, but to that argument I'd say neither does SHS.

The Dems are running an ex CIA spook against an ex FBI, Trump endorsed carpet bagger. So we're screwed either way

That commercial seems like an SNL skit.
Dan Marino does one for Relaxium too. I don't know why. I guess he's broke.

Maybe not. Lots of celebs do commercials for MORE money not because they’re broke.
Two examples come to mind: Shaquille O’Neal and Nick Saban both do commercials and they’re definitely not broke.

u/Lylac_Krazy 21h ago
I see Shaq in pizza commercials, but he owns a chain of them. Cant fault a guy with his own skin in the game. He creates jobs.

u/barto5 20h ago
He does a lot more than that. And I’m not blaming him at all. Just noting you don’t have to be broke to do commercials.
O'Neal is is a spokesperson for The General, an insurance company. He's also promoted Buick, Pepsi, Epson, Papa John's, and many other brands and companies.

I love how on that commercial he is billed a former presidential candidate, with no mention that he was a governor for a decade. It's like he's begging you not to look too much into his actual employment record.

I enjoy thinking about Mike Huckabee, his wife, his friends, and everyone he knows having a hard time sleeping at night. "Sleep the fear away!"

“Relaxium”. Totally legit and effective and safe. Ask the My Pillow guy I’m sure he’ll vouch for it.

Not being able to sleep at night is SCARY according to Mike Huckabee. At best it's a placebo.

If Arkansas can elect Sarah after having Mike as governor, I don't think Trump has to worry about campaigning in Arkansas to win the state.

Couldn’t get a single Michigan politician? Sara auditioning for a show on newsmax or a spot on trumps cabinet, it really doesn’t matter to her.

Maybe she is going to be the VP pick when Trump runs again in 2028.

Vance/Huckabee 2028.
Please, God. Please.

Nah, Vance is getting booted out of the maga world after Trump pins the 2024 loss on him.

Create a couple of accounts on X and post it. Soon Trump will be repeating it

u/EmJayBee76 1d ago
He and his team just assume that most of his followers don't even know who their governor is

u/TheOnlyVertigo 1d ago
Oh they do.
If there’s one thing I have learned from living in Michigan is Trump’s supporters know who the Governor is in the state.
They call her the Wolverine Queen thinking it is an insult.
My father in law has called her Witchmer before.
They absolutely know who the governor is. lol

u/EmJayBee76 1d ago
Lol indeed. Thank you for that information, I didn't know but now I do. (Though this sounds sarcastic, I ate a gummy and popped off about something I didn't know about). See how easy that was kids?!

u/TheOnlyVertigo 1d ago
It’s all good.
I just know the absolute level of vitriol she gets from the hardcore MAGA morons.
She still beat the person that ran against her 2 years ago like she was owed money so it all worked out in the end.

Trump apparently said tonight something about climate change being a good thing for MI because they would have more beachfront property.
And his answer to another question - I think it was about the auto industry, was nuclear war. Wut

roll eyes
Fuck trump is such a desperate, transparent, chucklefuck. No surprise the man who shits in a golden toilet and has his name plastered all over every building and vehicle he owns doesn't have an ounce of subtlety in his body.
Can't even subtlety pander to black voters after a lifetime of being a racist POS

Easy to find a Michigan Republican. You don’t bring in somebody from a different state.

Next up, the Kamala Harris town hall in Texas with Gavin Newsom because Greg Abbott told Harris to pound sand.
Same energy.
And I only say this because I would not expect the state governor representing the opposing party to host a town hall like this, regardless of the candidates.
1
u/Godhri 21h ago
If you watch this town hall he has a hilarious and awful time mixing up bagram airbase and ANWR, then spends like five minutes explaining AGAIN why his rambling actually makes him a genius. He then reuses a story from the literal last town hall he did about being asked to do a town hall. Bro’s brain is cooked, maybe rfk gave him a brain worm.

u/Dapper-Percentage-64 21h ago
Sarah has a beautiful lectern . Must have forgotten it back in Arkansas

u/WordsWatcher 21h ago
The reason for having Whitmer there is that in a week, Trump can say, "So when I was in Michigan with the governor, I had an excellent debate that I crushed." And using just "the governor" is true - it's just not Michigan's governor.
