Former Gov. John Kasich (R-OH) said Wednesday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) was shameful for spending money to promote Rep. Peter Meijer’s (R-MI) opponent, Trump-backed challenger John Gibbs, who defeated Meijer in a GOP primary Tuesday.
Guest-anchor Pamela Brown said, “Governor Kasich, you have Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Republican election deniers could soon be overseeing elections. Just how dangerous would that be?”
Kasich said, “It’s very dangerous, and I hope they all lose. If you can’t accept the result of this last election and you want to run, what’s that going to do to the process? So I hope they all lose. It’s terrible that that happened. By the way, what is interesting in Michigan, this guy Gibbs who beat Meijer, Meijer voted to impeach Donald Trump, the Democratic Party itself put money into the Gibbs campaign because they thought he’d be the weaker candidate and they were able to defeat Meijer who actually stood up and voted to impeach Trump. Now, you go figure that one out. That’s kind of wacky and not good for the future of the way we do elections in this country.”
Brown said, “It’s a big risk. It’s true. The DCCC put all this money behind Meijer’s opponent, who won last night. How much of a sure bet is it that he would lose in the general?”
Kasich said, “Think about how wacky this is. This is completely wacky. The Democrats who say they want reasonable Republicans in office then go and defeat the reasonable Republican and endorse somebody who is a Trumper. It’s just crazy. Shame on them. That’s not the way this should have worked.”

I like it, and we should do the same for their extreme choices in their primaries.
Reasonable Republicans = Weak Republicans
We don’t need anymore appeasers.
Kasich is apparently a racist, assistant Demoncrat.
You know, his dad was a mailman.
I wonder what he was eating when he said it.
Nobody cares what this loser blowhard has to say.
Shut your mouth KA-Sick.
You're discovering that Democrats are insane at the same time you're throwing in your lot with the Democrats. Think about how wacky that is, John. This is completely wacky.
On another topic, wasn't your dad a mailman?
That cartoon really does look like him!
IF the Democrats are going to subsidize Donald Trump’s endorsed candidates, then he should endorse every non-Democratic Candidate..
Lack of self awareness is a condition all politicians share, but this creature takes it to another level.
Shame on Kasich, we don’t need a Woker getting involved.
Kasich is so disconnected from the real GOP, which is now the MAGA party under Trump. Trump's endorsements counted more than money.
Bush League Republicans think it is very dangerous for non-Assistant Democrats to win primaries.
They won’t assist Democrats.
“This is completely wacky. The Democrats who say they want reasonable Republicans in office then go and defeat the reasonable Republican and endorse somebody who is a Trumper.”
What’s wacky is thinking you can trust the commies, Kasich.
Is he really that stupid?
Gibbs won because he worked harder than Meijer knocking on more doors and giving more speeches. And Trump's endorsement was certainly a factor. Attributing Gibbs victory to Dem money is just sour grapes by out of touch Kasich.
Too bad his son is not a male man.
