28. Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost is a Republican. Of course he'd play the smear game against a Dem.

That's what Repubs do.
Whether it goesvanywhere or disappears after the election, it suddenly news & well timed the week before the election.

Unlike Turner's ties to RE donors & Foreign corrupt Mercury PR Lobbyists where there exists a valid list of receipts to prove the uncomfortable ties being sheltered from public view, Republican AG lands the Cleveland Plains Dealer a hit piece to print & sit on right before the election.

Bets it disappears from the RW AG's docket as soon as the election is over.

This ain't Nina's 1st rodeo!!
She's obviously got some RW High $$$$ Donors paying big money investments in this high stakes game.
