Michigan Senate Candidate Stands by Tweet Insulting Rural America, Despite Deleting It Earlier

Michigan Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow defended her stance on a tweet she deleted last year, in which she suggested rural America could learn from coastal elites, during an interview with CNN on Sunday. The tweet's contents and tone sparked criticism, but McMorrow stood by her words, indicating that she remains committed to the idea. The comments were made more than two years ago when McMorrow was a state senator, but they resurfaced in recent days due to renewed attention on her Senate campaign.
