As we’ve reported extensively, there’s a lot that suggests John Kasich supports some version of amnesty for illegal aliens. It’s reached the point where on his show yesterday, Rush Limbaugh implored voters to support Donald Trump, in hopes of driving the squishy Kasich out of the race.
Today, someone with a much smaller audience, and a much more powerful message addressed Kasich’s planned amnesty; Maureen Maloney, the mother of Matthew Maloney, a promising young man who was killed by a repeat offending illegal immigrant drunk driver. As Breitbart reports:
Maloney said that she found John Kasich’s campaign pledge to enact amnesty within his first 100 days in office to be “sickening”:
“Let him come visit me and let me take him to my son’s grave. My son was a college graduate. He graduated college just three months before he was killed. He worked going through college, worked part time to help pay for his tuition, he graduated debt-free because he helped by for his tuition. And he had just got his first real job and he was killed. He was killed by somebody who had a criminal record and who had drank a case of beer earlier in the day. [Maloney pauses] So, let [Kasich] come meet with us family members, and let him come visit the graves of our children and then let me see what he thinks about it. Because I don’t know how anybody with any kind of heart or compassion could make that decision.”
