I'm 700+ miles from Michigan. Never heard of this guy until 2-3 days ago. He ha's popped up in my feed so much, I've seen at least 3 videos involving him in that time. I'm curious enough to ask, but not enough to sit through more videos of him thinking that loud repeating of words win an argument. Do clips exist of him not being a victim of something and yelling the same things over and over?

[@trevorgomes6632]

Same here and the answer to you qustion is no.

You think that councilman Eric Mays is out of order? How about the whole city of Flint starting with its mayor? How about the whole state of Michigan starting with its governor? They've been out of order for decades! If I were a resident of Michigan and a resident of Flint, I'd encourage every individual to vote Eric Mays in as governor of Michigan who will take care of Flint AND Detroit with an iron fist!

[@mayavenuemisfit814]

He has ran for mayor of Flint twice (2015 and 2022) and didn't even make it out of the primary round either time. He runs unopposed in his city council ward, which is probably the only way he's able to hang on to that seat. How do you figure he's going to win a statewide election if he can't even win one in his own city without running unopposed?
