Some folks on social media have noticed something strange happens to Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer when she’s asked about a controversial topic: a communications problem. It happened during a June 9 CNN segment about the Hunter Biden trial. It was before the verdict, but it’s clear that Whitmer wanted no part of this interview, and the audio magically vanished:

Whitmer will be one of Biden’s go-to gals in this re-election bid since he must win Michigan to win re-election. The state is chock full of Muslim voters who hate the Biden White House’s Israel policy, but the more significant issue is the independent voter bloc that isn’t high on the president. Whitmer could help on that front, but what good is the governor if she can’t stand the media for more than 30 seconds when pressed about the issues? Also, the governor doesn't have some shoddy kidnapping plot she can use to weaponize against Trump, a subplot of the 2020 election that was utterly ridiculous. That so-called plot was another in-kind contribution to Democrats from the FBI.
Someone else found this clip from a local media outlet that asked the governor about her COVID protocols at the height of the pandemic. During that segment, the audio also cut out. How convenient.

You can literally see at the 18 second mark when someone signals Witmer that this interview is about to end
