Michigan needs a coup d’état

RE: Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer threatens to shutdown pipeline that carries half of Ontario’s fossil fuel supply from Alberta.  Spectator editorial 1 Feb 21.

Are y’all in Ontario missing Trump yet?  The progressive climate crazies seized power in the U.S. and are now threatening the lives and livelihoods of their soul-mates in Ontario. All for the good of the planet, you understand.

Cutting off Ontario from half its supply of fossil fuel?  We didn’t mean to be taken this seriously this quickly! The expression the editorial was searching for to describe the prospective action of Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer was casus belli.  I’m not sure Trudeau could use this term with Joe Biden, because these days Biden barely grasps English, never mind Latin.  But suddenly cutting off Japan out of self-righteousness from oil is what led to the attack on Pearl Harbor.

The wicked witch of the mid-west was beloved when she was a thorn in the side of Donald Trump and abusing power left and right over the pandemic.  Now, completely mad, she’s going to abuse it to the detriment of Ontario.  What is needed in Michigan is a coup d’état, but unfortunately both the Lieutenant Governor and Attorney-General of Michigan are Democrats, and Trump arrested a group of plotters who were going to kidnap Whitmer.

None of this would be happening if Trump were president, and y’all know it.  Trump was many things, but he understood business and economics and his word was good.
