John Kasich New Book: Trump Won Election Because America in Spiritual Decline
Breitbart.com ^ | 29 Apr 2017 | Katherine Rodriguez

Ohio Gov. John Kasich claimed in his new book that the reason President Trump won the election was because America is in a moral decline.

In Two Paths: America Divided or United, Kasich blamed Trump’s electoral win on groups ranging from the media to dishonest politicians, but he also said one of the main reasons Trump won was because of the spiritual decline in America.

“I happen to believe that you can’t guide an entire society without a shared religious foundation,” Kasich wrote. “I saw Trump’s reckless entreaties as a weakening of our shared American values — even more so, a coarsening of our shared American values … Donald Trump gave the impression of a man who would do or say anything to get attention, even incite a crowd to violence.”

Kasich also noted that Trump “gave millions of disenfranchised voters a voice.”

Kasich is the wannabe theocrat that lefties are always worrying about - and they love the guy.

If he meant *evil spirits*, he may be on to something.

America is in spiritual decline and people like Kasich bear responsibility.

I remember seeing a Breitbart article last year on John Kasich, about how he doesn’t believe in making political decisions that are based on the Bible’s teachings. In other words, personal faith should not guide a political decision.

And he considers Donald Trump being elected a decline of spirituality in this country?

“I’m always telling my young son, Baron. I’m always with my kids, all of them. I’d say, children, small little bites,” Trump said at a rally in Rhode Island on Monday. “This guy takes a pancake and he shoves it in his mouth It’s disgusting. Do you want that for your president? I don’t think so.”

Why is Kasich even still around to be nothing but another pos rino?

This ahole has done nothing but cause trouble.

His picture should be in the dictionary as the definition of RINO right under Ryan.

Kasich went to Washington as a representative many years ago. He went to Washington a marginally moral man but a conservative with principals of government and economy. He left Washington no longer a Conservative of principle nor economics nor constitutional defender.

Kasich was a damn good man with weakness. Washington DC appealed to his weakness, He is no longer a good man. Today he is just one more political hack.

K street corrupts, that is their job!

Kasich is a dumbass.

Who, in their right mind, would ever want to read one word he wrote? Even if it was just “the”, the fact he wrote it would taint the word permanently.

States react differently to Governors who hate their job and State they work for... I wonder how this will play out?
