100% spot on. Sunday was one of those “moments” that crystallized where the public is on an issue. It lifted the veil to what’s really going on in the rest of the country - people are, by and large, living their lives. It should have been a moment that the media celebrates but it won’t because it doesn’t serve their brand of fear driven politics and it largely involved a demographic that they loathe - southern white males that play golf. It was a statement sports moment that seemed to represent the vast majority of the population a bit like Bush’s first pitch at Yankee Stadium during the 01 World Series.
BTW - if Whitmer was going to violate her Covid orders you would think she would pick someplace a bit nicer than the Landshark. Maybe she wanted to take advantage of the 2 for 1 body shot special.
Well said, John. Good point about media bias...they do not like 'white males' in general, certainly not the southern kind. They are fearful of what they represent (liberty, religion, traditional American values...) I got a chuckle out of your Whitmer comment...Landshark has upgraded a bit from back in the day but 'dive' is still appropriate. Did she swallow the gummy shark? That's what I'd like to know:)
