  • I hope Ohioans have enough common sense not believe that a super-rich election denier gives a hoot about them.

    Bernie Moreno, former car salesman who had "settled over a dozen wage theft lawsuits prior to launching his U.S. Senate campaign." Shredded documents. Paid out $400k. Sounds like a Trump Republican if I've ever seen one.

    160K are being removed from Ohio voter rolls due to inactivity. Check your registration in Ohio!
  • @Divigne
    I live in Ohio. Sherrod is just trying to stay neutral as a Democrat running in a Republican state.
  • @hughjorg4008
    Bernie Moreno is mentally chaotic and JD Vance is chaotically strange. 🤔 OHIO does not need to send Moreno to Washington DC. His mental chaos will result in political chaos in the Senate.
  • @lizgander9172
    Since when is Ohio a battleground state??? 😂😂😂
  • Moreno-“I’ve done nothing wrong.” Geez, where have we heard that before?
  • @lurklingX
    😐 whenever they say "WE'VE DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG"
  • @coryharry7300
    Brown is in a tough spot, and I think he answered in the best way he could.
  • @relaxgood5214
    It’s amazing to see how many people are willing to lose their country.
  • @will_c294
    Sherrod is a powerhouse whether he goes with Harris or not. As an Ohioan (unlike anyone on your panel?) people love him here, and by staying away from the top of the ticket he's playing to the center (where most Ohioans are). He's walked this rope before, and he'll do it again.
  • I appreciate his answer!! I hope he wins his race!! I think he more aligns with Harris but, he still needs to fight his fight!!
  • @abvevo6406
    In a red state, when you're a Democrat you actually stay moderate, which Kamala is far from. He's being smart, distancing himself.
  • @Rastebb
    Makes sense. Ohio is going red at the top of the ticket anyway. Brown has a shot at a down ballot win if he does this
  • @Shadepariah
    I can say for certain that the Moreno booth at the Ohio Gun Collector's Association was pretty dead. I don't think he's gonna make it. Sherrod is pretty well liked in Ohio.
  • @Dragan489
    Don Lemon, CNN Questioned Kamala’s Blackness?
  • Ohio is not purple anymore. That is red state now, ever since Trump.
  • @LeftofTube
    Optima Democratic Party in a graveyard 🪦
