DeWine tried so so hard to be a good little minion to trump, so he wouldn't get primaried on his right.

The Petulant Orange Crybaby must be doing nothing else today but watching TV and making a list of every Republican who has called Joe Biden “The President-Elect” so new can tweet out his vile verbal diarrhea. Isn’t that so special.

The rules in Ohio never barred political or religious events - so they were not "waived" - so asserting that they were waived for Republican events is inaccurate.

They should have been barred all along, but that's a different criticism than selectively waiving them.

Pepper's statement implies politically motivated special treatment to Republicans. It wasn't. It was general stupidity that applied equally to all political (and religious) events (i.e. to Black Lives Matter & to the angry mob at the statehouse door protesting face masks)

You're either the best friend of OrangeLoser, or his worst enemy. (I'm exaggerating "best friend" and "worst enemy", of course.)

We've watched as ally after ally of OrangeLoser falls out of favor and he turns on them. And they're still shocked when it happens to them.

Jordan is not particularly well liked by state house level gop-ers.
He would need them.

His ugly history at Ohio State Uni, his looking away from the sexual assaults in the wrestling program is just now starting to move through the public awareness of cost

(https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/30109042/ohio-state-pay-58m-settle-sexual-abuse-lawsuits-related-former-team-doctor

snip-"COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio State University will pay $5.8 million to settle lawsuits by about two dozen more survivors over decades-old sexual abuse by a now-deceased team doctor, Richard Strauss -- bringing the total settlements so far to $46.7 million for 185 survivors, the university announced Tuesday.&quot

There are 200+ more suits against OSU in the works.

Gym Jordan isn't getting support from the pols who he would need, cause he is tied to a costly scandal that will cause the state money.

And that's why so many Republican enable him, even though, behind his back, they can't stand him.
