As Patty McMurray reported earlier, last week Trump supporters found themselves scratching their heads over the potential selection of former US Rep. and FBI Special Agent Mike Rogers, who recently ran for US Senate in Michigan as a Republican, as the potential next FBI Director.
Although President Donald Trump won the state of Michigan, after days of counting in the senate race, the very unpopular former CIA analyst and former US Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D) was called the winner of the race by a very slim margin.
Instead of questioning how it was possible that President Trump did so well in Michigan, yet he lost by a small margin after days of counting in a state with 9 days of early voting, Mike Rogers conceded almost immediately, without even so much as a whimper.
Maybe Rogers did not complain about his loss since he was very vocal trashing President Trump in 2020 for contesting the highly controversial and improbable results of the 2020 election.
From Rogers’ November 21, 2020, Detroit News op-ed:
President Donald Trump’s attempts to influence the electoral processes in Michigan, and elsewhere, is cause for both concern and alarm, and should be roundly rejected by both Democrats and Republicans alike.
By attempting to use the trappings of the Oval Office to influence state officials, he is violating norms of behavior and setting a dangerous precedent for the future — not just here, but internationally. American democracy must be about more than one person or one party, and right now the president should honor the office by acting accordingly.
The president is certainly within his rights to contest results where he believes there may have been inaccuracies or impropriety, and there are legal mechanisms for doing so. These efforts are unlikely to deliver the results he believes they will.
His victory in 2016 was much closer than his loss in 2020, and both votes were held fairly and with bipartisan observation. It is well past time that the president accepts that he lost and begin the peaceful and orderly transition of power to President-elect Joe Biden.
The reality for Trump is that he lost the election, and not just in Michigan. The 2020 election was perhaps the mostly closely watched in history.
Recently, shocking comments by Rogers have resurfaced exposing his allegiance to the security state.

There’s literally no worse appointment possible than choosing Mike Rogers for FBI Director, or for any government position.
He’s the single most devoted loyalist to the US Security State and all of its multi-faceted abuses. It doesn’t get worse than Mike Rogers. https://t.co/HNU6GZx8p2

Rogers also went on NPR to argue that the “Nunes Memo” that revealed illegal FBI spying on the Trump campaign and his family members, should be suppressed.

Mike Rogers would be a horrible pick for FBI Chief.
Kash Patel is the obvious choice to clean up the deep-seated corruption in the FBI.
