Governor Whitmer's Bizarre Barbie Obsession Takes Twitter By Storm

In a recent tweet, Whitmer, or someone on her team, wrote, "Come on Barbie, let's go govern," accompanied by a photo of a Barbie doll dressed as the governor herself. The caption read, "This Barbie is the 49th Governor of the great state of Michigan, and just like [Barbie], fuchsia is my power color."

While Whitmer's attempt to use the Barbie brand to promote her office's initiatives is certainly unique, it has left many wondering about the priorities of their elected officials. One tweet suggests that Whitmer plans to address the state's infrastructure issues, stating, "I'll be fixing 'the damn roads' from 'Ann Arbor to Escanaba' so that my Barbie doll can 'cruise through the Great Lakes State, enjoy scenic views, and turn every journey into an adventure.'"

Another tweet focuses on "electrification" and "battery manufacturing," presumably in relation to electric vehicles. However, this tweet raises eyebrows as it highlights Michigan's involvement in funding the child slave trade in Africa, which is closely linked to the sourcing of materials for electric vehicle batteries.

Whitmer's social media presence doesn't stop at just one Barbie-themed post. Several tweets from the governor's official account feature the brunette doll holding a Michigan flag and engaging in various activities around the state capital. These videos have drawn criticism for their hyperactivity and lack of professionalism.

These tweets serve as a reminder of how little some elected officials think of their constituents. It is disheartening to see public figures trivialize their roles and prioritize personal interests over the concerns of the people they represent. Such behavior also makes it challenging to distinguish between genuine posts and parody accounts on social media platforms.
