Michigan Dem Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow purges X account following The Post’s report on her social media history

Morrow, 39, purged her X account of roughly 6,000 posts, including all her tweets posted prior to 2020, CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski reported on Wednesday.

The journalist noted the social media cleanse came after The Post’s April 2025 scoop on McMorrow’s tweet history.

The deleted posts even included jabs at the purple state she is now running to represent.

“Aaaand it’s snowing. Screw you, Michigan. #NYCtoLA,” read a now-deleted April 2014 X post.

“There are days like these that make me miss California even more,” McMorrow groused on Jan. 5, 2017, the day before President Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton was certified by Congress.

She also removed a bizarre post where she mused about “Middle America” breaking away from the country weeks before Trump’s swearing-in as the 45th president.

“I had a dream that the US amicably broke off into The Ring (coasts+Can+Mex+parts Mich/Tex) and Middle America,” McMorrow wrote in the since-deleted tweet.

McMorrow, currently a state senator who is running in the hotly-contested Democratic primary to replace retiring Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), has positioned herself as a moderate in the race and is considered a rising star in the party.

She expressed frustration last year that Democrats give off “elitist” and “academic” vibes, but her social media history includes posts suggesting Trump supporters are poorly educated and agreeing with users who voiced criticism of rural voters.

“We’ve downplayed the importance of quality education for all, replaced it with fear and blaming and anger, and here we are,” McMorrow posted on Election Day 2016.

“All of this talk about coastal elites needing to understand more of America has it backwards,” then-journalist Patrick Thornton wrote in a November 2016 post McMorrow elevated.

“It is much of white working class America that needs to reach outside its comfort zone and meet people not like them,” Thornton continued. “Many rural Americans have isolated themselves from the rest of the country. They live in very unrepresentative areas.”

“[P]eople on the coasts could stand to meet more rural and exurban people,” Thornton acknowledged, before adding: “Rural and exurban people need to see more of America.”

McMorrow reposted the thread and added: “I’m from rural New Jersey, this rings 100%. Empathy should go both ways, but Trump’s base fears what they’ve never seen.”

CNN’s examination of McMorrow’s deleted posts also uncovered a series of tweets where she described herself as a California resident and voter as late as July 2016, despite writing in her 2025 autobiography that she “relocated permanently” to Michigan in 2014.

McMorrow also joked about cars being “dead” and compared Trump and his supporters to Nazis in others, according to the outlet.

“Pushing for [a] future where we don’t own cars. … Cars are dead,” the Michigan pol wrote in one thread.

“Dr. Seuss, 1941. We’ve been here before, America. #AmericaFirst #NoMuslimBan,” McMorrow wrote in January 2017, linking to a Dr. Seuss cartoon about Nazi Germany, days into Trump’s first term.

“Please watch the full 4-minute mini doc that a dear friend created with Walter, a 91-year-old Holocaust survivor, warning about the parallels he sees between the rise of Nazi Germany and America today,” McMorrow urged her followers in October 2020.

A McMorrow campaign spokesperson described the tweet purge as “pretty standard for candidates,” in a statement to CNN.

On the timeline of McMorrow’s move from California to Michigan, the spokesperson claimed it “was a process” that was not complete until mid-2016 and that the Senate candidate considers 2014 the start of that move.

On her anti-car tweet, the spokesperson said McMorrow “started her career as a car designer and doesn’t want to ban cars. She’s been repeatedly endorsed by auto unions.”

“These are normal tweets by a normal person,” Hannah Lindow, McMorrow’s communications director, said.

“As Michigan’s Senate majority whip, Mallory has spent the past eight years fighting and delivering to make people’s lives better: higher wages, universal pre-K, no kid going hungry in schools, comprehensive gun violence prevention laws, and more. And she’s tweeted about that too.”

McMorrow’s campaign did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
