“Thank you for everything that you have done,” Whitsett told Trump and Vice President Mike Pence at the White House on April 14. “I did not know that saying thank you had a political line…I thought just saying thank you meant ‘thank you.'”
Now they will censure her. I thought we were all in this together?
Maybe it's done all the time. If a republican says something e.g., "thanks" to a democrat, they get censored too, and are told they will NOT be supported for their campaign?
I really don't know the answer to the above. If it's commonly done, I'm fine with it, even though I don't like it.
If not commonly done, then she should make a big deal out of it, based upon "we're all in this together." And then, flip them off.

Here’s where the story truly turns bizarre. Jonathan Kinloch, the chairman of the 13th CDDPO, is quoted as saying, “At the end of the day, we have political systems. We have political parties, and political parties exist for a reason. [Endorsed candidates and officials] do not belong to themselves. They belong to the members and precinct delegates of the Democratic Party.”
Excuse me, but did you actually just say that the elected Democratic officials belong to the delegates of the party? I think there’s a word for a system where some people belong to other people, isn’t there? Oh, that’s right. Slavery. And not to put too fine of a point on this, but Representative Whitsett is black, just in case you hadn’t noticed.
