'Chlamydia is more popular than Donald Trump': Former Michigan GOP operative
"Former President Donald
Trump won the Michigan primary on Tuesday, but former Michigan Republican operative Jeff Timmer rained on his parade by noting how much support rival Nikki Haley got despite the fact that she has no shot at winning the nomination.
"It's not just that Donald Trump continues to lose three or four out of every ten Republican votes," said the political operative, whose bio notes he's also
a Senior Advisor to the Lincoln Project. "It's that those voters are never ever ever coming back to Donald Trump. Chlamydia is more popular than Donald Trump among college-educated white voters, especially white women, and even non-college-educated white mainstream Protestant women."
Trump came out of Michigan with 68.2% of the Michigan vote while Haley ended with 26.6%.
However, Trump's dominance in the state apparently
fell off from previous elections in traditionally Republican hubs like Oakland and Kent Counties.
This is where Timmer sees vulnerability in the 45th president's pursuit of the White House.
Meantime, incumbent Biden took the state easily despite
tens of thousands voting "Uncommitted" as a protest launched by some Democrats fuming over his support of Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.
"The fact that Donald Trump will never get the votes — that's the biggest story out Michigan tonight," he said. "The way it should be covered Donald Trump's results are much weaker than they appear to be and Joe Biden's results are stronger than expected.""
What did Biden get? Something like 96% of the vote? And this is a swing state? Funny how confident people are Trump will win looking at those numbers.
