Sometimes the fact that DeWine is totally spineless works out to Ohioans’ advantage.
Same with the infamous Ohio House Bill 6 where First Energy bribed (allegedly, for now) the Ohio House speaker and others tens of millions of dollars in order to get over a billion dollars in subsidies. When the feds arrested Speaker Householder and there were calls to repeal HB6, DeWine said that it shouldn't be repealed. The next day the spineless governor said it should be repealed and replaced when he saw which way the winds were blowing.
