Kasich: The Trump Show Is ‘Winding Down’ — ‘He Has Jumped the Shark’
Breitbart ^ | July 10 2020 | PAM KEY

Posted on 07/11/2020 3:02:03 AM PDT by knighthawk

Friday on CNN’s “OutFront,” former Gov. John Kasich (R-OH) said voters were no longer interested in President Donald Trump’s “show.”

When asked about Trump’s lowering poll numbers, Kasich said, “I kind of think she’s jumped the shark. That’s ‘Happy Days’ when Fonz jumped the shark, and that was about the end of the show. I’ve been saying that I think he has jumped the shark. People wanted him to mix it up. They said, let’s take a chance on this guy. This is about our families. It’s about our kids going back to school. It’s about mom and dad. It’s about grandma, grandpa. The guy won’t wear a mask. We’re behind the curve on all this. He’s dismissing it. When you do that, you are now messing around with people’s lives, and people don’t like that.”

He added, “So, you can see the Republicans beginning to retreat, and we see independents retreating in mass. It’s a very hard thing to fix. It’s never over until it’s over. As Yogi said, it ain’t over till it’s over. But at this point, losing all these people, including increasing numbers of the religious faithful is very, very difficult. It’s a very tough thing to dig out of.”

My hate for the moribund GOP will know no bounds post Trump.

Maybe we can re build a new Whig Party their platform sounds good to me.

"The Whigs favored an interventionist economic program known as the American System, which called for a protective tariff, federal subsidies for the construction of infrastructure, and support for a national bank. The party also advocated modernization, meritocracy, the rule of law, protections against majority tyranny, and vigilance against executive tyranny. The Whig base of support was centered among entrepreneurs, planters, reformers, Protestants, and the emerging urban middle class, but it had relatively little backing from farmers or unskilled workers. The party was active in both the Northern United States and the Southern United States and did not take a strong stance on slavery, but Northern Whigs tended to be less supportive of that institution than their Democratic counterparts. "

Kasich’s Medicaid expansion will bankrupt Ohio.

Nobody ever mentions that.

If Kasich said it we know it is wrong

He is a poor analyst and is never right any more

Kasich was. Kasich isn’t

Once again, the Left, the political establishment, the Never Trumpers are all too willing to show their lack of understanding. The fact of the matter is: you, Mister/Madam politico, talking head, educrat-Deep Stater-think tanker have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting. I doubt there is a single Trump supporter right now, right this very minute anywhere in this land who thinks that any of today's ills are the result of Trump. No. They think back to just before Covid hit and all the progress, all the success, all the world changing that was going on and realize it was because of Trump this massive economic uptick, this re-establishing of the American brand, the spirit of optimism came about - and all from someone outside the political class! What is happening in our country right now is a result of the mad throes of diseased institutions (media, academia, politics) using adversity (the virus) being hurled to full effect at the weak, the lame, the halt and then blaming Trump for it all.

The media/press has forsaken its charge to be a fair and impartial guard against tyrannical governance, thus an arm of protection for the people. Democrats urge on the protests, the lockdowns, the destruction seeking power for themselves, forsaking those in their cities who most depend on them for true charity. Republicans, complicit in their silence and cowardice neglecting to stand up for true American values - the kind that have made this the greatest nation in the history of nations. The Deep State dragging its heels to unleash true justice on those of the "favored class" who have broken our laws and betrayed us, thus committing acts of treason against every American and endangering our very existence as a people. It goes on and on. Sadly, people like Kasich, who I once liked when he was in congress, have become dull in their thinking, believing that they alone are the ones who can see us through this mess, rather than realizing they are the cause of it.

The tone deaf can never sing on key. The background "music" playing in the land is nothing but discordant noise and many in the choir whose voices are depended upon to lead the song, have forgotten the words. And Donald Trump begins each rally with: "I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free..." Music to my ears!

A fool and a tool. That basically describes Kasich to a tee.

Losers who ran for President and lost are some of the most nakedly envious, spiteful people in public life. Romney, Kerry, McCain, Ted Kennedy (who found out on the pre-campaign trail just how few would be going for it), and, lest we forget, Al Gore.

Must give props to Ben Carson, Bob Dole, Rand Paul and even Ted Cruz (who got ahold of himself after the Convention), for their good behavior.. Mike Huckabee, always a joy, and father of a developing political superstar. If they are guilty of covetousness, they’re not letting it show.

On this issue, Lindsay Graham has gone both ways, so to speak.

Afraid not, K-suck. It is the Left that has jumped the shark.

Just the fact that he would go on CNN disqualifies anything he would say.
