Whitmer and Gov. Gavin Newsom are examples of 2028 Democrats who are trying to portray themselves as centrist Democrats .

Democrats disagree over how to deal with the president, considering the GOP 's popular vote win in last year’s election.

Democrats seem more emboldened to disagree with the commander in chief following the president's poor polling.

Michigan Democrats have also reserved judgment concerning their governor, Gov. Whitmer , whose response to the Supreme Courts repeal of Roe v. Wade before the 2022 midterm elections salvaged her reputation, damaged during the COVID-19 pandemic.
