> We certainly have our share of dumdums here in Ohio but I think the actual leadership is fairly reasonable, and they do really like $$ and wouldn't do anything to jeopardize investment.

Mike DeWine is governor.

On the Federal level, Ohio has Representative Jim Jordan and the current VP of the US, J.D. Vance.

How do you measure that “the actual leadership [of Ohio] is fairly reasonable”?

DeWine, to his credit, has been notably independent on a number of fronts, from COVID restrictions to anti-trans legislation.

Yeah it's a sad state of affairs in general I agree with you there. Overall I'd say our clowns in Ohio are probably about average if you judge against the national landscape.

The republicans in Ohio will do what the republican in Washington are doing right now. Mark my words, whatever the King says goes, unless there is a national disaster or he has a complete dementia break down in public. Luckily, it's all built around his cult of personality and falls apart when he's no longer viable.
