Republican leaders are employing desperate machinations to steal their own nomination from Fecal Dump Trump. They have built their party around rabid racists, homophobes, misogynists, nativists,. clan members, seditionists, and hate mongers of every kind. Now the leaders have lost control of that base, who are choosing Fecal Dump as their candidate. One of the alternatives, that the leaders are promoting, is John Kasich (R-OH). The media portray him as a moderate and a great guy. I call him KKKasich for good reason.
I don't agree with conservatives on many things, but one area we can all agree: John Kasich really is an asshole.
One of the biggest successes this election cycle has been John Kasich's scheme to convince people that a) he's a moderate and b) he's a nice guy. To be fair, in a GOP race that has the frontrunners trying to out-hate and out-asshole the other, it probably wasn't that hard to do.
But it's not real.
Not only is John Kasich not at all moderate, he has real issues. Politico has documented many instances of his volatile temper. Although NBC News uses the word “cranky," most other outlets, like Cleveland.com, prefer the term "jerk”. That is the word those closest to him tend to use.
I have another term for him that perhaps you can guess when you hear this story. When he was first elected, Kasich told the media he had to pick an all white cabinet because he said he couldn't find any qualified diverse candidates. When a black Ohio legislator offered assistance, he told her bluntly, "I don't need YOUR PEOPLE!"
(To be clear, that's not something nice people say.)
So it's no surprise that Sheriff David A. Clarke Jr. hit the roof when he heard Kasich disparaging an officer for giving him a ticket that he clearly deserved… [emphasis added]

Barf Bag Alert!!
Republicans have sown the wind. We are all reaping the whirlwind. It wasn’t hard to see coming. In fact, I predicted this in 2010.
As for KKKasich, what can I say. I could call him a fascist or a Nazi, but he deserves a fouler label. KKKasich is a Republican!.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Also, he was working for one of the Wall Street firms that tanked the economy when he was pulled over above…that doesn't smell good to me.
And yet there are people who call Bernie a curmudgeon. What a world!
Parody may not be my strong suit, but sometimes I just can't resist:
K-K-K-Kasich, horrible Kasich,
You're a c-c-c-candidate that we abhor,
When the s-s-s-sun shines on the convention,
We'll be glad to k-k-k-kick you out the door.
K-K-K-Kudos!
B-B-Bingo!
The word 'idiot' is appropriate here but not for the officer. Kasich is the IDIOT!
I remember much earlier in the campaign hearing Rachel say that Kasich was a moderate. I thought she had fallen and hit her head! From what I have seen since, he is no more a moderate than I am the Queen of England. I wonder if Rachel wants to eat those early words?
As governor, Kasich cut funding for education by $700 million and funding for nursing homes by $340 million. He doesn't stand for working families, and he's 'concerned' about about raising the minimum wage. Kasich doesn't seem to care as he said he opposes government-required paid sick days for workers.
Not a good man, concerning his citizens of Ohio or elsewhere.
Here is a moments ago clip where Kasich criticizes Obama on Brussels attack response:

Thanks for this video clip, Pat. Brussels is trying to get back to normal as fast as it can and so does the whole of Europe, showing both the resillinece of the people living and working in Brussels and their determination to not live in fear of terrorism. And what does Kasich do? Trying to make it all about America and in turn using that to put down Obama. He wants America to put up a worldwide system in which it can pick up on these terrorists. Arghh… you already have that, you moron, its the system Europe has been rallying against for years because you put taps on everyone, including our heads of state! And of course he's campaigning again for boots on the ground against Da'esh. Some moderate, huh.
Ditto Lona!
Not only did he NOT yield to the emergency vehicle, which he clearly did not, he had his RIGHT turn signal in when he entered the roadway!!! That could have been another ticket if the cop was such a HARD ASS!!! What a moron!!! ABSOLUTELY KKKASICH!!!
All of my friends in Ohio hated him when he was governor, and yes, most of them are progressives, with the exception of my beloved niece, who somehow became a Republican, much to my dismay and disbelief.
Obama does not need to return to Washington to deal with the Brussels attack. Obama knows exactly what is going on. Air Force One is more, lots more, than just a plane carrying him, his family and his staffers.
Once again KKKasich shows his true colors as an imbecile or as others have aptly described him: moron, asshole, jerk. KKKasich is NOT a moderate; he is an extremist like many of his fellow republicans. I remember when he said to a black legislator, "I don't need YOUR PEOPLE!"
Yes, he is tempermental, cranky and a sourpuss. KKKasich is unfit to be in the Office of POTUS.
I also remember what Rachel Maddow said about KKKasich as she was "pushed", "pressured" into saying what she said about KKKasich as the least GOP [mad hatter], my emphasis. I could not find the video.
Kasich's "Irony Meter" is clearly on the fritz!
According to the CC he says,
And yet by the CC count, he called the police officer an "IDIOT" at least three times.
(I suppose by Rethuglican standards, the fact that he didn't call the office a "F\/*KING IDIOT" three times DOES show respect.)
There was little need to go back as far as 2008 to show the 'real' Kasich; whenever Kasich was 'home' throughout his campaign, he turned back into the nasty little man with hard line Republican views that belied his TV appearances. And even on the road he made some rally speeches for 'friendly' audiences that echoed his true bigoted Republican feelings. But then, compared to Drumpf or Cruz, everyone is a moderate and yet few voters seem to fall for it. Kassich has only one win to his name and that is his own state but he's still in the race while other contenders with more wins have left long ago. I think he was the backup plan for GOP's golden boy Rubio and still sponsored to be the moderate against Drumpf and Cruz, both of which the GOP leadership fear and dislike intensely. But a leopard can't change his spots (sorry, leopards) and Kasich can't even keep up a 'nice-guy' or 'moderate' appearance for more than a few hours and revert to his KKK-self, so the GOP will soon look for someone else to replace him.
Thanks all! Hugs!!
Many good comments, except those by "K" hole, who was a leader in the impeachment hearings aginst Pres. Clinton. At that point Clinton's presidency essentially ground to a halt, the very result the GOPigs have sought for Obama!
