C-SPAN's The
Weekly: It’s the war between the States – of the States
addresses!
“Folks
are moving here in record numbers to become a part of our winning way
of life. Californians and New Yorkers have never seen a state like
ours – one that trusts our people, and one that embraces and promotes
liberty and Freedom.”
That was Republican South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem
… her State of the State address …Now here’s Democratic Michigan
Governor Gretchen Whitmer – her State of
the State address:
“In some states, educators
are being undermined, micromanaged, and even criminalized just for
doing their jobs. In Florida, teachers
are disrespected and book bans are rampant—heck, just two
weeks ago, a district banned the dictionary! The dictionary!
In Texas, nearly 1 in 3 teachers aren’t even
certified.”
Governors who knocked other states – states whose
governors happen to be from opposite parties.

addresses.
Instead of the Blue versus the Gray, this civil
war—the rhetorical civil war—is the Blue versus the Red.
What were their attack lines?
