LANSING — In response to James Craig’s campaign dress rehearsal that just concluded in Jackson County, MDP spokesperson Rodericka Applewhaite issued the following statement:
“As expected, James Craig just spoke for a half-hour without disclosing much more about where he stands on the issues, trying to have it both ways embracing Trump while once again refusing to condemn the Big Lie. This was a total thumb-on-the-scale event featuring heaps of establishment praise from MIGOP co-chairs Ron Weiser and Meshawn Maddock, Senator Mike Shirkey, and other local Republican electeds to see if their cherry-picked candidate can land the lines he’s told to deliver in what’s already looking like a rigged primary for those that have actually launched their campaigns.”
