Bernie Moreno drops out of OH race for Portman's seat [View all]

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Bernie Moreno, the Cleveland businessman and luxury-car dealer, has dropped out of Ohio’s crowded Republican primary for an open U.S. Senate seat.

Moreno announced late Thursday he had suspended his campaign following a meeting with former President Donald Trump, who holds considerable sway over Republicans and is considering whether or not to endorse in the race.

“I asked for a private meeting with President Trump this afternoon to discuss the state of the Ohio Senate race,” Moreno said in a statement. “I am a businessman, not a politician. Business leaders recognize patterns before they happen. After talking to President Trump we both agreed this race has too many Trump candidates and could cost the MAGA movement a conservative seat.”

There are just too many Trump ass kissers in the OH race, they needed to thin the herd.
