Full discussion: Ex-Michigan governors call for return to civility in politics

Описание: Michigan's four living former governors, two Democrats and two Republicans, gathered in Lansing on Wednesday to address what they described as a crisis in the nation's political climate.

The discussion, organized by several groups including Michiganders for Civic Resilience, aimed to promote civility and productive discourse across political divides.

Former Governors Jennifer Granholm, Rick Snyder, Jim Blanchard, and John Engler emphasized the need for respectful political conversations, despite differing opinions.

"The greatest threat to America in my view is us, and that's our lack of ability to get along with each other," Snyder said.

The panel addressed several contentious topics, including election integrity, media distrust, and social media divisions. They also touched on immigration operations in Minneapolis and how to handle disagreements on such issues.

The former governors agreed that political discourse must evolve to allow for productive conversations on hot-button issues.
