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.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"0322KKKasich\"I don't agree with conservatives on many things, but one area we can all agree: John Kasich really is an asshole.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

But it's not real.<\/p>\n

Not only is John Kasich not at all moderate<\/a>, he has real issues. Politico has documented many instances of his volatile temper<\/a>. Although NBC News uses the word “cranky<\/a>,"  most other outlets, like Cleveland.com, prefer the term "jerk<\/a>”. That is the word those closest to him tend to use.<\/p>\n

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,<\/strong> "<\/strong>I don't need YOUR PEOPLE!<\/strong><\/a>"<\/strong><\/p>\n

(To be clear, that's not something nice people say.)<\/p>\n

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<\/a>… [emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
