Not since Batman and the Joker battled for the soul of Gotham has there been a fight quite like this one brewing. Chief James Craig, one of Detroit’s longest-running police chiefs, announced his retirement as of June 1st. Word on the street is that Craig is gunning for Gov. Whitmer’s gig, but he side-stepped questions about whether or not he will throw down the gauntlet at Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s demon hooves and attempt to add her to the 5% of Michiganders who are unemployed. This could be huge. If Craig decides to run against Stretchin’ Gretchen in a gubernatorial battle for Michigan, and wins, it could have a huge impact on Michigan’s typically blue political future as well as the next presidential election.
