Remember Erick Erickson? He was a rising star who destroyed his career when he dumped Trump from the Red State Gathering because Trump offended Megyn Kelly. Years before that Erickson had to chauffeur Kasich around Georgia for a couple of days so he could go to a few campaign rallies. He said that Kasich was the most pompous, arrogant jerk of a politician he had ever met in his life, this coming from a person who has met more than his fair share of pompous politicians. It's a good glimpse into how politicians view themselves as contrasted with the little people who they want to "serve"
TERM LIMITS!!
Pols like this are why conservatives need to find DINOs to run in ‘Rat primaries in case their Pubbie candidate is an overweening a$$.
Another ego-maniacal swamp critter.
Send him home to rotate on his toothbrush.
Not a veteran. Yech!
I read through it and it seems folks are stretching a bit to deplore his “demands”. Simple to stock the trunk with the items he wants and maybe at monthly intervals and how much trouble to keep a coat hangar in the car. The drinks/public image bits also make sense in these times. I wonder what sort of demands others make that don’t get put out in the public eye because someone wants to erode his/her image to folks.....
Just a suggestion folks...
Before you get all wee-weed up over this article,
you might want to check out this guy’s voting record.
100% Pro Life
“A” Rating from the NRA
Does NOT believe in anthropogenic climate change
Backed Trump on the immigration ban
Wants to reduce the Department of Education and supports Charter Schools and School Vouchers
Voted repeatedly for Obamacare repeal
Against ANY government healthcare regulation that costs money
Opposes Federal Regulation of Agriculture
Just a thought here, but do you maybe suppose that this article might just be a hit piece on a guy who is a strong Conservative?
And maybe he is an ass.
If he votes the way we want, then at least he’s *our* ass.
Just exactly how I had John Katich pegged. An arrogant asshole who thinks his sh*t don't stink.
Talks about himself and his "accomplishments" as if he were God's gift to the political world.
NOT.
Driving Mr. Crazy.
How our elected representatives sacrifice to serve the nation.
If I was a Congressman, I’d want my paid staff to work just as hard and with as much attention to detail as this memo suggests.
The memo was written by his staff, so it sounds like they know what helps him and what doesn’t. Which means he has hired well.
It is not the demands per se that are offensive; it is the fact that we are paying for it that is offensive. The arrogant a$$holes that are in the Fake Congress forget that WE are their masters, not the other way around.
BTW, all I need to know is they accept no responsibility. “Edson blamed the memo leak on Rokitas presumptive Senate challenger, Rep. Luke Messer (R-Ind.)”
New York hit piece on an Indiana Republican looking to unseat the incumbent Democrat Senator
This guy fits right in.
Do some research on Queen Sheila Jackson-lee.
So what’s it pay?
I’d do it for $160,000 a year.
Then again you never know, maybe someone else with an axe to grind is just making stuff up...
But, but John Kasich is just a humble son of a mailman!
If he is paying enough for the job, I guess he can demand anything he wants.
Reminds me of Blagojevich. He referred to his bag of hair accessories as “the football”.
This story is total BS. Todd is from my Home town in Indiana - he is a regular guy who has a good family and supports many local charities and causes. Hopefully he will be the candidate who defeats “Jackass Joe” for the Senate seat in Indiana.
