Detroit Democrats plan to vote Saturday to censure and bar any future endorsements of a Democratic lawmaker who credited President Donald Trump with advocating for the drug that she said cured her of COVID-19. State Rep. Karen Whitsett, D-Detroit, broke protocol by meeting with President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence during an April 14 meeting of COVID-19 survivors, during which she credited hydroxychloroquine for saving her life.

Man... how hateful can one be? Can you imagine the media's uproar if the republicans would have done this to a republican meeting with Obama or Clinton? And some republican's did and sometimes republican's applauded specific actions of both Obama and Clinton... why? Because, 1) we recognize something good can happen from a politician of an opposition party and 2) we are not filled with hate... that's the biggest one... hey democrat, it's alright to leave the party of hate, actually any of democrats reading this, you too can leave the party of hate!

Well, that shows how much Democrats have evolved. Now they're just censuring blacks who leave the plantation. They used to lynch them.

Much like a bully, they need to show how it will be if they stray off their orchestrated narrative, for any/all who dare speak out of turn.
Believe gang members also do something similar, to ensure others know the consequences if they too dare step out of line.

Seriously, The Democrat party in America is willing to let people die on purpose to try to destroy Trump. These are evil people. No other way to describe it. Just plain evil.

Co-morbid buffoon...if it were he that were dying of this scourge, he would accept any potential remedy. That is what Rep Wilson did. All she did was tell of what meds saved her life. I would extol the virtues of the life saving remedy as well! Not her fault that her remarks were well circulated and to the benefit of many who have suffered.

It is not a good idea for the leftist and liberal Democrats to harass Karen Whitsett, as there are bound to be other corona virus sufferers who have recovered and feel the same way as Whitsett, who will speak up thus biting the Democrats right on their politicized butts.

Example A of why there are no independent thinking or bipartisan democrats in congress. Straying from the dogma or saying nice things about Trump is a cardinal sin.

Democratic legislators have as much political freedom to stray from their paras members of the North Korean parliament. She ought to cross aisle to the side constantly fighting each other. It may be messy and frustrating herding cats, but it is the best representation of what it means to live in a free republic.

Ms. Whitsett, you might want to rethink your party. Again, they don't want you to speak your own mind. They want to control you. All they want is unfettered power and they don't care who dies.

I watched the April 14th meeting at the WH. This rep has Lyme Disease (The article just says she had an underlying condition). She repeatedly thanked the President for his understanding of Lyme Disease. He guided her to the WH doctors to see if they could help her in her recovery from Covid 19. He was very respectful of her and her husband, as well as they of him. She started out her story by saying that she didn't know that expressing thanks was a political thing. Looks like her home state proved her wrong.

Is it terrible to wish that some of these Democrats get COVID and have to choose between taking HCQ or being loyal to the Democrats?

Sounds like a great reason for Whitsett to break ranks and come over to the 'right' side....

The party of Don't Break Our Protocol.
How dare you give any republican credit for anything good. It is against our party rules. It only matters what the people can be made to believe from the mouths of us Marxist Communist democrats and that does not include acknowledging anything positive or good from anyone other than one of our Marxist Communist democrat comrades.

So they won't censure a treasonous crook like Pelosi or Schiffty, but they will censure an honest democrat who told the truth. I hope we can all call or email her office, for she needs our support. She did good.

As an extreme Caucasian, I'm starting to feel like I'm a victim of the "racial disparity" that Gov Gretchen mentions ( but only once per paragraph) in every screechy/whiney interview.
