Former Ohio Republican Gov. John Kasich delivered a forceful endorsement of Democrat Joe Biden for president during the first night of the Democratic National Convention, lambasting President Trump’s time in office without mentioning him by name.
“The stakes in this election are greater than any in modern times,” Kasich said in a speech recorded outdoors at the intersection of two gravel roads. “Many of us have been deeply concerned about the current path that we’ve been following for the past four years. It’s a path that led to division, dysfunction, irresponsibility and growing vitriol between our citizens.
“Yes, there are areas where Joe and I absolutely disagree, but that’s OK, because that’s America,” Kasich added. Story continues“Donald Trump has no clue how to run a business, let alone a country,” Whitman quipped. “I think both parties have to have new ideas, and I think this country is moderate,” Kasich said. “People on the extreme, whether they’re on the left or the right, they get outsized publicity that tends to define their party. You know, I listen to people all the time make these statements, and because AOC gets outsized publicity doesn’t mean she represents the Democratic Party. She’s just a part, some member of it.
