This former Republican presidential candidate just admitted he's voting for Democrats now

Kasich said people who are confused about who they should vote for should cast ballots for “unifiers.”

“I early voted,” the governor said. “I didn’t vote for all Republicans. I vote for people that are unifiers. People that have courage. I don’t have to agree with them, but I want to have respect for them. I don’t want them to spend their time engaging in vitriol.”

The former 2016 presidential candidate said because “our leaders are not leading,” everyday Americans must rise up to make change as they did in the civil rights and anti-Vietnam War movements.

I'm so over people saying they hoped he would win the primary because he would be so easy to beat.

I want a Republican candidate for president who won't end the world if he wins. A repeat of 2016 is simply unacceptable - and I'm afraid that is exactly what will happen if Trump is the 2020 candidate.
