Mike DeWine rejected anti trans bill. He must now stand against Trump.

Mike DeWine showed how to stand up to Donald Trump. Now he must do it.

Thanks to Gov. Mike DeWine for overriding House Bill 68 (the bill that would restrict medical care for transgender minors and block transgender girls from female sports).

I appreciate his efforts in investigating the proposed law and suggesting why it should be vetoed. Most importantly he pointed out that these difficult medical decisions should be left to the patient and parents with the guidance of science based medical care.

This sounds like core Republican values.

While the governor is supporting core Republican values by standing up to the Ohio legislature, why doesn’t he use this opportunity to stand up to former president Trump.

It’s time for leaders like DeWine to say that the emperor has no clothes.

Trump is a bully, egotistical, liar who doesn’t represent core Republican values. If more leaders like DeWine would stand up to such “leaders,” maybe the nation could avoid a second devastating term by Trump.

If I were the governor, I would have trouble standing up on the same stage next to someone who called me a “stiff.”
