Meshawn Maddock (screen capture)
Buttigieg, the former mayor of South Bend and a 2020 Democratic candidate for president, and his husband, Chasten, recently moved to the Traverse City area, where Chasten is originally from.
On Sunday afternoon, she shared a tweet from the Republican National Committee that featured video of Buttigieg talking about California’s plan to ban new gas-powered vehicle sales by 2035 and saying the country needs to “move in the direction of electric vehicles.”
“We’re so blessed this weak little girl moved to Michigan,” Maddock wrote in her tweet about the video. “Looks like he’s bringing all his California Dreaming here with him.”
Mind you, Maddock made the remark about a military veteran on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Whatever happened to class? Back in January, CNN reported that Maddock is being investigated for her part as a fake Michigan elector after the 2020 presidential election. Lavora Barnes, chairwoman of the Michigan Democratic Party, told Detroit News the state party will use the remark to fundraise and then added, “But I am not responding to homophobic crazy.” Twitter was less than impressed:
Homophobia is the most thought-out, detailed and consistent brand for the Michigan Republican Party — it has nothing else to offer. Congratulations to @CoChairMeshawn for shrinking your party for a generation to come! We couldn’t ask for a better spokesperson. https://t.co/TK4FjeOi2b

Homophobic bigot calling a veteran names. Classic GOP.

It’s 9/11 and you decided to launch a homophobic attack against a veteran who has served this country in ways you never will? Disgusting. You are so unfit to lead anything and the condition of the MIGOP shows it.

Lol Pete was literally awarded a Joint Service Commendation Medal for running transport missions through a war zone in Afghanistan. Meanwhile you’re married to this dude. pic.twitter.com/oxvdEDR3og

OMG — Have you no shame? Is it simply all about being as disgusting & divisive as possible? All the time–even today? On 9/11 you write revolting comments about a veteran & spout homophobia, trashy insults. Just SMH. Have some dignity. You embarrass the good people of MI.

Imagine being a woman and calling someone a girl as an insult. If weak little girls are so terrible, feel free to resign and not involve yourself in political matters.
