In reply to the discussion: Kasich Should Run A Primary Campaign Against Trump [View all]ChoppinBroccoli
(3,785 posts)25. Those Of Us In Ohio Can Tell You That You Want No Part Of K-Suck
Immediately upon taking office in Ohio, he started pushing through all kinds of disastrous Right-Wing bullshit. Remember Scott Walker's union-busting bill he passed in Wisconsin? Kasich put through the exact same bill in Ohio, but he got his ass handed to him when the people of Ohio voted it down on referendum. He also fully supports the old Bush agenda, privatization of everything, charter schools, trickle-down economics, the whole thing.
And while he might seem like a breath of fresh air when compared to Trump, believe me, he's no picnic. We Ohio voters have had to fight his disastrous agenda at pretty much every turn. Calling Kasich a moderate Republican is sort of like calling Moe the smart stooge.
