Michigan Democrats rally against Trump's visit to Macomb

Shelby Township — Democrats are showing their opposition to President Donald Trump’s campaign-style visit Saturday to Washington Township.

A crowd of 50 and growing are gathered at UAW Local 400 in Shelby Township for a counter-demonstration and potluck teach-in event. They hope a blue wave of Democrats will get elected in November to help the party retake control of Congress and statewide offices in Michigan.

Dan Colling, a Lake Shore Public Schools board trustee and event organizer, said the rally was important to hold because of Macomb County voted 54 percent to 42 percent for Trump in 2016.

“The spotlight was on Macomb after the election, and people were wondering how could a county that elected Obama twice vote Republican, and that’s because Macomb often votes for change,” said Colling of St. Clair Shores. “They voted for Trump because they don’t see conditions getting better for working families and are worried about public schools.”

2. "and they're worried about public schools"?

WTF is wrong with these people? Were they worried there weren't enough charter schools? Did they not even think?

I'm at a loss about America anymore. It's getting dumber by the second.

6. "Dumber by the second"

that is what I said for over a year before the election as the stage of GOP candidate kept shrinking down to a single fucking moron who I said would win ever since the golden escalator announcement. Every time I write that on DU someone tells me to speak for myself but then other DUers share my opinion like you just did. Americans are getting dumber by the minute and I think it is becoming more of a fact than an opinion.
