Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) on Sunday suggested that President Donald Trump appeared at a campaign rally in his state on Saturday without a direct invitation from the House candidate he came to tout.
Kasich, speaking on ABCs This Week, said he asked state Sen. Troy Balderson, the Republican candidate for a U.S. House seat in a Tuesday special election, point blank why he invited Trump to campaign for him at his event in Delaware County.
I asked him the other day, Why are you bringing Trump in, said Kasich, who has been one of the GOPs harshest critics of the president. Kasich said Balderson told him, Well, I dont have anything to do with it.

As soon as I heard Trump was appearing in Ohio my very first thought was “what will John Kasich do to undermine him?”. Didn’t take long to find out.
I believe Kasich will say just about anything to get the media to fawn over him, and by bashing Trump, he figures it’s the easiest and fastest way to win the approval of the media. To put it more bluntly, I think Kasich is a liar.
BYE TROY!
what an embarrassing governor Ohio doth hath!
wherefrom did they ever dig this idiot up, anyways!?
creepers!
Crybaby didn’t get the nod so he’s pouting yet again.
Jim Jordan was awesome!! The crowd went wild for Jim Jordan and chanted Speaker of the House!!!
Only an idiot wouldn’t want The Donald there.
Definitely a jerk.
Does anybody know when Kasich’s term as Governor is over? He needs to have his “position” perch taken away from him so he is relegated by the presstitutes to the “past governorship” as he should be.
I don’t know what to make of it, but nowhere on Balderson’s Twitter feed does he say thanks to the president- though he RT a couple of other people acknowledging POTUS at the rally.
I don’t know Ohio politics so can’t say if Balderson is playing both sides or if he just isn’t a Trump guy.
I remember the idiot had to be talked out of giving the speech.
Trump’s win shut him down.
Great, so even if he wins, we have another cheap labor express stooge.
John, nobody really cares what you have to say anymore. Accept that and get on with your life.
I have no trouble believing that Pres. Trump’s people reached out with an offer to show up. Obviously, the campaign worked closely with Trump and his people. The strange thing is that Kasich would characterize this as “didn’t invite.”
.
Kasich is intestinal gas.
The entire crowd had Trump signs; a few supported the House candidate too.
.
Kasich ugly on the inside and the outside.
How could even one moron vote for him? He’s like a little boy who is getting revenge on the kid who wouldn’t let him ride his new bike and now he won’t let him in the clubhouse.
To hurt and shun Trump during the convention in his state was unforgivable. If I can’t win then I’ll spite you. He should be booed off the stage.
Voters allow someone with that maturity level to get into office?

Note the Blue (Dem) tie!
