NEWS:
Former Sen. Rob Portman, an Ohio Republican, tells me Vivek should take down the ad
“The increasing incivility in the political arena should concern us all. This ad is an unfortunate example of that broader trend. It crosses the line. I hope the ad will be taken down and the final days of the campaign will focus on policy differences.”

I was asked today on MSNOW about the recent ad in the Ohio governor’s race. It’s completely inappropriate and has no place in American politics. It should be taken off the air, and those responsible should apologize.
Here’s what I had to say.

Trump sued famed pollster Ann Selzer and Gannett's Des Moines Register, who do not have the resources that the likes of Paramount and Disney have, but who fought the case instead of folding.
They won today.

Per his spox, Gov. Mike DeWine said funding a gas tax suspension with ODOT cash balance was a "very, very bad idea."
(ODOT has $1.6B in its highway operating fund, but it's all spoken for.)
DeWine is waiting to see bill language on a gas tax holiday before deciding what to do.
