This year’s presidential election is a tempestuous rollercoaster ride of ugly, personal attacks and disordered aggression and not enough about the real issues at hand.
2020 certainly has blown away all of our expectations of how this election year would play out as Donald Trump is on his way to be reelected and Joe Biden, the Democrats, and even some corrupt Republicans are hanging on by a thread.
In a prerecorded address, Kasich stood at a fork in a gravel road to symbolize the divergent paths he said the country could go down based on the outcome of November’s election.
“Many of us have been deeply concerned about the current path we’ve been following for the past four years,” he said during a roughly two-minute speech. “It’s a path that’s led to division, dysfunction, irresponsibility and growing vitriol between our citizens.”
“I’m a lifelong Republican, but that attachment holds second place to my responsibility to my country,” Kasich continued. “That’s why I’ve chosen to appear at this convention. In normal times, something like this would probably never happen, but these are not normal times.”
It was like something out of a late-night infomercial. Nothing anyone said had any real meaning behind it, it was all smoke and mirrors.
