'That woman from Michigan' shirt is hot seller for Farmington Hills business owner

To Amanda Burden, “the woman in Michigan” goes beyond the words Donald Trump used to attack Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

“I think it's also something about women just kind of taking back their power,” the Farmington Hills resident said by phone Tuesday. “It’s like, yeah, I am that woman from Michigan – whether you know my name or not, I'm still going to be fighting for the people of my state.”

And she has the shirt to prove it.

of the outrage I've personally felt about this since it was happening last week and this past weekend.

[text subject line:] tshirt shows that Michiganders "get it"

The sociopathic current president of the United States has held the lives of your valiant doctors, nurses, and their desperately ill patients in your state HOSTAGE in order to openly try to destroy your governor.

Which he did, so far with impunity, solely for his own personal aggrandizement and political advantage, as murderously as he did with the lives of Ukrainian soldiers last year.

Support The Governor.
