The first night of Democrats’ national convention features a lineup of several former Republican officials who are backing former Vice President Joe Biden over President Donald Trump.
Officials announced that former Ohio Gov. John Kasich will be making remarks, along with former New York Rep. Susan Molinari and former New Jersey Gov. Christine Whitman.
Also slated for Monday night is Meg Whitman, the former CEO of Hewlett Packard. Whitman was a senior member of Republican Mitt Romney’s presidential bids but backed Democrat Hillary Clinton in 2016.
Kasich was one of the last contenders in the 2016 GOP primary and has been a fierce critic of Trump.
Several Republicans to speak at Democratic National Convention
Gee, what do you do when your fellow republicans are voting against you?

There is a large segment of the Republican party looking for "permission" to vote for Biden. He appeals to them and will give them cover to do so.I will not, for the life of me, understand why the Democrats are giving a platform to that asshole.

I don't disagree, but this is a convention. It's about defeating Trump and Trumpism. Once in office, tack left.The Democrats need to embrace the progressive left, the faction of the party that is winning electorally and has momentum behind them, and not embrace Republicans and become an even farther conservative party.
Add former presidential candidate Carly Fiorina to the list of republicans supporting Joe Biden.

They're in a jar on his desk.Good for her considering the way Trump treated her during their primaries.
If Ted Cruz could only find those raisinets he has for balls he would also vote against the man who made fun of his wife's looks.
I picked John Kasich over Trump back in 2016.
Everyone wanted to elect an outsider, someone who wasn't a politician or lawyer, so Trump won.
You reap what you sew, and we sewed a turd.
.... He supports defunding police, open borders, free healthcare for everyone in the world paid for by Americans... the list is endless.

This thread is in the wrong section and completely unnecessary. The word "governor" means absolutely nothing right now.
Kasich and other "Republicans" get to give a speech. AOC gets 1 minute. What does that tell you?
Hilary Clinton being rammed down Democratic primary voter's throats doesn't hold a candle to the forcing of Biden on Democrats. Did DNC leadership ask "who is the oldest white guy who has lost the most presidential campaigns?" to make their choice?
