Bridge Delay Sparks Political Fire | Winnipeg News

The Gordie Howe International Bridge’s opening has been delayed amid political drama, with Democrats seizing the moment. A key Michigan Senate candidate, Mallory McMorrow, is blaming President Trump for the holdup, linking it to the Moroun family’s financial ties to Trump’s campaign and their longstanding opposition to the bridge. The Morouns, who own the rival Ambassador Bridge, have reportedly met with Trump officials and donated a million dollars to his PAC. While the U.S. and Canada are working to resolve issues, the delay is fueling a political firestorm—McMorrow’s ad attacks Trump directly, while the Republican candidate vows to reopen the bridge if elected. Trump himself has claimed the U.S. needs compensation, sparking controversy over the project’s timeline. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
