COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX) — Former President Donald Trump's April 23 rally in Delaware has many people wondering if Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine will be there.
It's no secret Trump wields enormous political power in Ohio. He and many of his supporters have been critical of DeWine since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a one-on-one interview with DeWine, ABC 6/FOX 28 anchor Kurt Ludlow asked if he planned on attending Trump's rally at the Delaware County Fairgrounds.
"On the day of the Trump rally, I'm scheduled, Fran and I are scheduled to be in Georgetown, in Brown County for the kickoff of the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the birth of Ulysses S. Grant so we're checking the schedule to see if it's also possible to be at the Trump rally," DeWine said. "But I have a commitment to be down there that day."
When asked if he would accept an endorsement from Trump, DeWine said he's certainly like the former president's endorsement as he'd like anyone's endorsement.
As for Trump complicating DeWine's primary chances, DeWine said if he does the job he was elected to do every day, the politics will take care of itself.
