Manage episode 445301313 series 1412618
Welcome back to your Daily Detroit! In this episode, we react to the aftermath of Donald Trump's controversial speech at the Detroit Economic Club. We explore the implications of his comments about Detroit and how they resonate with both local and national audiences.
Veteran political journalist Steve Friess shares his insights on the political landscape and the perception of Detroit in the media.
We also discuss the evolving political dynamics in Michigan, touching on the first debate between Elissa Slotkin and Mike Rogers. We examine the role of electric vehicles in political debates and how they have become a partisan issue, despite their growing popularity.
In addition, there's an upcoming Ann Arbor ballot propositions that could reshape local elections by removing party affiliations and adding municipal funding of local elections. We analyze the potential impact of these changes and are kind of puzzled why Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson has taken a stance against them.
Switching gears, we talk about the recent success and the importance of raising expectations for Detroit's sports teams. Steve is originally from New York, so adds a bit of that "Winning should be the expectation" flare.
