President Trump on Wednesday slammed former Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray as a “socialist” who “should not do well” in Ohio’s gubernatorial election this November.

“Congratulations to Mike Dewine on his big win in the Great State of Ohio. He will be a great Governor with a heavy focus on HealthCare and Jobs,” the president wrote on Twitter, referring to Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, who won the Republican primary for governor Tuesday.

Cordray is also DeWine’s predecessor, having served as Ohio’s attorney general before heading the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) for nearly six years. Cordray left the agency in November to run for governor in a move that set up a fight over who would serve as his successor in leading the CFPB.

Cordray on Tuesday defeated former Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D) in the Democratic primary. He will square off with DeWine in a closely watched governor's race to replace John Kasich (R), who is term-limited, in November.

3. I know Richard Cordray

And you,Sir, are no Richard Cordray.

DeWine has jumped from one elected position in Ohio after another. When Sherrod Brown defeated him I thought he was gone, but like a bad penny he returns.

We had the worst mass murder ever in Southern Ohio. After posturing for weeks in front of the cameras,telling everyone he would solve this. Then faded away, nothing.

DeWine is against the ACA, Medicaid, everything Obama accomplished.

5. That should be an election issue

of how useless he was in his other jobs and epic failure to catch the perps of that horrible murder along with the failures of the drug war since marijuana is legal in other states.

6. That is another thing

DeWine did a Drug bust of a Clinic in my small home town in Southern Ohio with Press all around him. As soon as the camera’ left you never heard anoypther word. Mike is a grandstander.

After Kasich and his Education cuts and Charter School scandals,trying to kill the Teachers Union Do not be fooled by his mealy mouthed moderate. He is not!
