In your attempt at defending Snyder, one thing you failed to mention was that he did have the option to veto RTW, and instead he chose not to.

Given that it was a lame duck session, it was highly unlikely that the legislature would have gathered enough votes to override his veto.

Yes, but a veto may have hindered his nomination for another term within the republican party, or his biggest benefactors may have put the arm on him. One of his biggest supporters stands to benefit quite nicely with RTW.

True.

As I said, it was political.

And let's call it as it is, Snydely lied.

Your own statement contradicts your claim.

You need to contact Snyder. Maybe he'll give you a job in his administration, since you're one of his biggest cheerleaders. I hope the "divisive" Snyder is a "One Term Nerd".
