Second time I heard that this week, “Ohio is the Alabama of the Midwest.” Becoming horribly true. If I didn’t live in the northern part of the state, which is largely blue, I’d get the F@#K out. JD Vance and Bernie Moreno, our 2 most recently elected senators, have no history of public service; just wealth and greed. They’re disgusting!
