Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who has been under fire for some ridiculous overreach in response to the coronavirus outbreak, appeared on the podcast of former Obama adviser David Axelrod Thursday:

.@POTUS says U.S. has all the COVID-19 tests we need. In a new #AxeFiles, I asked @GovWhitmer about it

“We've never had enough… We're doubling our testing in Michigan this week. It still means that we're way under where we should be.”

The most nonsensical statements made during Covid19 goes to… Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer: Abortion During Coronavirus ‘Is Life Sustaining’ No,not exactly Governor. Abortion happens to be the opposite of life sustaining. Abortion is LIFE ENDING. https://t.co/oujdf1Txu4 — Christina Hagan (@RepHagan) April 17, 2020

We’ve seen it all now.

This horrifyingly Orwellian, but I'm worried Gretchen Whitmer doesn't know what basic words mean She says it's "ridiculous" to call abortion "elective" because it's the "ability to decide if & when she starts a family" Dems literally call it pro-CHOICEpic.twitter.com/sz5GtC86mJ — Elizabeth Harrington (@LizRNC) April 16, 2020
