    Dave Weigel Retweeted Ben Shapiro

    We need a name for this particular fallacy: Trump won a state, therefore anything he does is popular in that state. I’ve been saying “the 2016 fallacy” but that’s lame.https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/1202618505461288960 …

    I’m sure Michigan voters will resonate to the message that we must have a president respected by Emmanuel Macron and Justin Trudeau https://twitter.com/jonfavs/status/1202416825692119040 …

        Yeah, but even if Trump had lost...Michigan voters wouldn't have cared about that message. The two are mutually exclusive.

        I think it's more important for people to stop giving a chit what Ben Shapiro says and thus denying him any type of platform.

        Relations with Canada are actually a moderately important issue in Michigan.

        Indeed. I wonder why it failed for Obama in Indiana after 2008. His margin there was higher that Trump's in Michigan and Wisconsin. But you won't hear Ben talk about that.
