Michigan Representative Elissa Slotkin, who is the Democratic nominee for Senate, expressed her disapproval of President Joe Biden's recent comments during an interview with a Detroit radio station. Slotkin described Biden's remarks as 'garbage' and deemed them as inappropriate for the political discourse.
Slotkin emphasized the importance of maintaining civility and respect in political debates, stating that the majority of Michiganders desire a functional government where Democrats and Republicans can engage in discussions in a civil and reasonable manner without resorting to name-calling.
She further highlighted her belief that such divisive rhetoric is unnecessary and expressed a sentiment shared by many that they are eager for the upcoming election to conclude.
Vice President Kamala Harris also weighed in on Biden's comments, stating that she strongly disagrees with criticizing individuals based on their political affiliations.
The reactions from Slotkin and Harris underscore the ongoing efforts within the Democratic Party to promote unity and respectful dialogue in the political arena.
