Michigan Gov. Whitmer attempts to quell growing criticism after her husband dropped her name while trying to get his boat in the water for the Memorial Day Weekend. 'My husband made a failed attempt at humor,' Whitmer says.
Dowker has since deleted his Facebook post and the company, NorthShore Dock LLC, has deactivated its Facebook page.
During Tuesday's press conference, Whitmer blasted state Republicans — who pounced on reports about her husband's boat launch request — for egging on demonstrations and noted that her family has been subject to “rampant rumors and violent death threats.” “My husband did go up to our place in Antrim County, and raked some leaves and came home, so he was there,” she said. “We did not all pile in the car to go enjoy our second home, although that would have been permitted if we had.”
