EXCERPT:
KASICH: “If you don’t have the old days back from the standpoint of 'People are Americans before they are Republicans and Democrats,' nothing will get done! And if the Democrats don’t want to reach out and be constructive, then call them on it, talk about the fact that they won’t help because many of them will if it’s put to them. Look, the exchanges in ObamaCare are disintegrating. This is not a situation that is going to do anything other than leave people who are vulnerable in a very bad position, so this is a time for America to stand up, and I understand that Donald Trump has said maybe we should have done this more with Democrats. Right now off the get go it’s all partisan. The Democrats did it with ObamaCare and it’s not sustainable, and the Republicans tried to do it with just Republicans. It doesn’t work like that in our country. We’re not a parliamentary system, and whenever you continue to operate like that, what you pass will never be sustainable, and it will — the people of this country, particularly the vulnerable, the mentally ill, the drug-addicted and chronically ill who will pay the price for politics. It needs to stop!”
