Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer called for unity and condemned Donald Trump for stoking division during the coronavirus outbreak during a press conference in which she addressed a plot to kidnap her.
Members of two domestic terrorist groups have been charged with Whitmer’s attempted kidnap, which she said she ‘never could have imagined’ when she took office.
Referencing the first presidential debate, when Trump told far-right group the Proud Boys to ‘stand back and standby’, the governor said he is ‘rallying’ groups such as the ones that plotted her kidnap
