He may well be, but at least he has done his part to:

champion lower taxes and reduce them

push the bureau of workers compensation to refund billions of dollars to Ohio employers

embrace the oil/gas industry and fracking which has helped create energy independence and vastly lower home heating costs

....among many solid iniatives. 

Far better to have him than the cuomo-type et.al. spongers 

I dunno I remember one of the first things he did was raise the gas tax and make EV pay fees 

This doesn’t look like MAGA…

Also, sorry Automatik, but wearing a mask outside is still stupid. 

I noticed COVID talk about vaccines went away pretty quickly when the winds of change blew in that BLM was going to ratchet up their machine about it.

No, no it didn't. Vaccine talk is still pretty big virtually everywhere I look.

Is anyone covering the protests though? I honestly don’t know, but I don’t watch the news. But I only saw it on “right wing” outlets. I’d be glad to be wrong. 

My girlfriend's son and his wife are waiting on results of their Covid tests which they got late last night. Meanwhile, her boss (she works for a major insurance company) tells her to just take some Benadryl and come into work. Dumbass....

It’s crazy when most people can work at home for companies to make these demands. 

Please God make it stop

Would serve him right if she had it, came into work on his demands, and gave it to him and he took it home to his family because of his dumbassery.

Just read where some companies are requiring your vaccine status to be on your resume. SMFH

This is getting really stupid, really fast.

Shit happens when the country is being directed by clueless dolts.

I think everyone probably saw this coming:

“You can certainly get both the flu and Covid-19 at the same time, which could be catastrophic to your immune system,” said Burrowes, a family medicine physician and assistant professor of family medicine at the University of Central Florida.

“I’m definitely more concerned this year than I was a year ago,” he told CNN.

Can't wait for them to be even more concerned about it next year.

You would think one fucking idiot in the medical profession would have the sense to say to himself/herself "Gee, we've been saying we're 'more concerned now than before' so many times, I think people are maybe starting to tune us out.  Perhaps we should stop doing that."  But I guess if it gets you a chance to be quoted as an "authority" on the mighty CNN, you keep crying  wolf.

The medical profession (not individual within necessarily) has shown as much incompetence in this entire thing as the government and the media.  I have little faith in our "greatest medical system in the world" right now.
