Kasich’s NeverTrump Vote Embodies What’s Wrong with Elites
PoliZette ^ | 2 Nov 2016 | Eddie Zipperer

Well done, John Kasich … You can sleep well knowing that you helped a possible felon under FBI investigation win the election.

Members of the ruling elite have a seemingly unlimited capacity to misunderstand populist movements. Like polar bears in an ice age, they benefit from the problems that are ruining the lives of others. Unlike the polar bears, they created the problems that are ruining the lives of others.

Populism doesn’t come raining down on the Jeb Bushes and Hillary Clintons of the world because of random bad luck. Populism is always an equal and opposite reaction to actions that harm ordinary people. In this case, globalization — which is great for giant corporations, the politicians they fund, and the media outlets they own, but bad for ordinary people — is the culprit. Hence, the freak out.

It’s good to be a polar bear like John Kasich. He has the luxury of being outraged by Donald Trump. There’s pretty much no trade deal on Earth that can outsource his job as governor of Ohio. Kasich announced yesterday through his spokesman that he broke his promise to support the Republican nominee and wrote in Arizona Sen. John McCain for president.

Don’t Blame Ohio, he is persona non grata with Ohioans now!

He is a traitor to the nation and the great state of Ohio where he wouldn’t even show up for the national convention in Cleveland.

Just another Globalist has been hack politician.

PUKE!

Or maybe his own sense of morality kept him from voting for a bigot.

Trump is far from a bigot. People who think that have allowed themselves to be brainwashed by the media. Funny thing is all these politicians and media people did not have a bad word to say about Trump all these years that he has been well known...until he decided to run for President. Hmmm

It is kind of telling how they all made such a big deal about the “pledge” to support the nominee, and played it up in the media as much as they could, yet when it comes down to it, they have no honor or integrity.

Instead of playing games like this Kasich should be leading an investigation into voting in Cleveland, where it was reported that Republican poll-watchers there told they shouldn’t show up in certain districts where it was expected there would be no - that’s zero - votes for Trump in the election - in 2012 there were apparently sixteen districts where no votes were recorded for Romney - Kasich, as governor of the state, should have state lawyers looking very hard at such bizarre voting patterns and at why Republicans can be turned away from monitoring the polls without any apparent pushback from the government - it’s sickening passivity like this in the face of obvious provocation that’s put Trump where he is today.....

Wow, we live in an age when a man very publicly and proudly breaks his word.

The citizens of Ohio will never ever be able to trust anything he says.
