Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel — a former Michigan GOP chair herself — shares Weiser’s confidence about the party’s ability to compete in the midterm elections.

“As a lifelong Michigander, I’m proud of the great work the MI GOP continues to accomplish on behalf of the Republican Party,” she said in a statement. “The phenomenal partnership between the MI GOP and the RNC will be instrumental in our efforts to hold Biden, Whitmer, and congressional Democrats accountable for their failures and ultimately take back the House and Governor’s mansion in 2022.”

Do these people just make stuff up about everything ?

1. Liar. Born in Austin, TX. So...there goes that claim.

4. I was born in New York

Raised in Pennsylvania. I’d say I was a lifetime Pennsylvanian.

9. I left at 1 year old. I'm sure I could be forgiven.

11. This is hair-splitting that most people don't engage in

If somebody moved to PA at 12 months old and lived there their whole life, most people would accept "lifelong Pennsylvanian" without complaint. You're insisting on an accuracy without a truth. It's piddling.

2. She's riding on her Grandfather's coat-tails.

I'm pretty sure she spent her childhood holidays in Michigan visiting former Governor Grandpa, but actually grew up in New York, Texas, and Utah.

3. Born in Austin, but went to high school in Bloomfield MI, where she seems to have spent most...

of her life except for college at Brigham Young. She did have a couple of jobs out of state, but I'd call her a Michigander as much as anything else. We're all Americans, and we move around all the time-- I've lived in Florida, New Jersey, and Germany, but don't dare suggest I'm not a New Yorker.

She's a major Trumpon, and doesn't get along much with Uncle Mitt, but her politics are enough to savage her, so we don't have to accuse her of "lying" about something like this. She is 100% behind the orange ass, and pushed for the Arizona recount, among others, so she really should go. But, it's not up to us.

I just know that even though I have spent most of my life in Missouri, if I attempted to say I was from here, all the peeps “from here” would disagree.

6. Well, yeah, there's that thing about if you weren't born here you aren't from here...

Around these parts, if your great grandparents didn't own a farm around here you are a newcomer. Not an uncommon attitude.
