John Kasich: What has happened to the Republican Party?

Just a day before the Republican presidential candidates meet for their third debate, John Kasich​ spoke about his opponents during a rally in Ohio. "I've about had it with these people," Kasich said. "It's just crazy. What has happened to our party? What has happened to the conservative movement?"

Now you have to live with it. When they write the history of the late 20th and early 21st century, all historians will agree the GOP sucked.

It started with Reagan, and ended with with Bush, McConnell, Boehner, Cruz, Paul, and lastly, Trump and Carson.

I mean, look at all the damage these people have caused to all Americans.

It's over John. Get out and don't look back.

He is just about as radical as the rest of the Republicans only now he recognizes it as something he must hide. Just last week he said we must cut social security "for the good of the nation".

Don't let this typical Wall Street supply sider, austerity promoting liar influence you.

Kasich is Hukabee without the bible baggage.
