Kasich says ‘even clowns were embarrassed’ by the Texas GOP convention
Former Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) bashed the Texas Republican Party’s proposed platform, part of which claims that President Biden was not legitimately elected president and that homosexuality is an “abnormal” lifestyle.
Kasich says ‘even clowns were embarrassed’ by the Texas GOP convention
“What happened in Texas was a clown show, and I think even clowns were embarrassed by what they saw down there,” Kasich said.
The former Republican presidential candidate said that when people who are interested in “common sense in politics” leave the political field, the “crazies” take control.
Kasich argued that extreme ideals have taken over on both sides of the aisle.
“If you let the extremes dictate who the nominees are, what the policies are, then you’re going to end up in extremes and things that don’t make sense and further polarize the country,” Kasich said.
The Texas state Republican Party received condemnations from Democrats and praise from former President Trump for approving a resolution to reject the results of the 2020 presidential election.
