Facebook Share CLEVELAND, Ohio -- If you didn’t follow factual news and tuned into the 2021 CPAC conference you would think twice impeached Donald Trump had won re-election as President of the United States in a landslide and that two-time losing Republican Senate candidate Josh Mandel was running for Governor of Ohio against “squishy” King Mike DeWine and “COVID Queen” Amy Acton. Friday, during his CPAC speech, former Ohio Treasurer Mandel attacked the Governor he hopes to share a ticket with in 2022, calling DeWine “Squishy” and a “RINO.”
