"Michigan GOP in Turmoil: Infighting, Adultery Claims, and Leadership Disputes"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Reuters
The Michigan Republican Party is embroiled in turmoil, with accusations of adultery, corruption, and incompetence leading to deep divisions within the party. The fight to oust the current party chair, Kristina Karamo, has escalated, with allegations of adultery against a party member and a police investigation. The turmoil has raised concerns about the party's ability to support former President Donald Trump's re-election bid in a battleground state that Democratic President Joe Biden won in 2020. The infighting has also led to a significant decrease in campaign donations and threatens to leave Republican activists disillusioned and less likely to volunteer or vote.
