Dana Nessel took the stage on night three of the Democratic National Convention as she gave a speech warning against a second Trump term.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel issued a new warning on Saturday about what a possible second term for former President Donald Trump might pose, saying that “what we saw in 2020” will “pale in comparison to what we are likely going to see in 2024.”
Amid the four-day Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago, Vice President Kamala Harris formally accepted the Democratic presidential nomination on Thursday and will face off against Trump, the GOP presidential nominee, in November.
Nessel, a Democrat and the state’s first openly gay attorney general, took the stage on night three of the DNC as she gave a speech warning against a second Trump term and wished the conservative majority U.S. Supreme Court good luck prying “this wedding ring from my cold, dead, gay hand.”
In a Saturday interview appearance on MSNBC’s The Katie Phang Show, Nessel added to her Wednesday DNC remarks as Phang pointed out her speech “addressed the very real dangers” a second Trump presidency and the current Supreme Court pose.
“There’s no question about it. We have a very different [U.S. Supreme] Court now than we had when marriage equality became the law of the land in 2015. We’ve lost three judges who ruled in the majority on that case.
