Well, though I am not a fan of Snyder, Flint did that to themselves.

Flint didn't want to continue to pay Detroit for their water, so the politicians in Flint decided to take it back over. They didn't take into consideration that there is lead in the water pipes that has to have certain chemicals in the water to prevent it from leaching into the water supply.

The media and the Democrats like to blame Snyder and the Republicans for the Flint Water debacle, but it wasn't their fault.

Then, in typical Democrat fashion, the Democrat leadership in Flint misappropriated the funding for fixing the problem.

All that to say, Snyder may have been a crap Governor (seems to be standard fare here in Michigan), but he didn't poison Flint.
