Kasich to Meet with Officer He Called an “Idiot”
Ohio Gov. John Kasich’s (R) “offer to apologize by phone to the Columbus police officer he called ‘an idiot’ in remarks posted to YouTube has been rejected,” NBC4 reports.
“Kasich’s staff reached out to Officer Rob Barrett to offer the phone apology, but Barrett turned Kasich down, wanting an in-person explanation and apology instead.”
A spokesman said Kasich will meet with Officer Barrett but the time and date of the meeting has yet to be determined.
