Fail....

Hillary Clinton =/ Kasich

Clinton has already lost Ohio. Her continued support for trade deals, that has led to 1000s of jobs being shipped overseas has cost her the entire rust belt.

Another GOPer "can't do it" either:

Exclusive: Armitage to back Clinton over Trump - POLITICO

Richard Armitage, the deputy secretary of state under George W. Bush, says he will vote for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump, in one of the most dramatic signs yet that Republican national security elites are rejecting their party’s presumptive nominee. The former Reagan and Bush appointee is highest-ranking Republican to break ranks for Hillary.

I can certainly understand him backing the war monger.

The one thing that all the candidates agreed on was how terrible Hillary is yet many are now helping her by isolating Trump.

Can the country survive 4 years of Hillary. I guess the republicans are willing to take that chance.
To me it sounds like the republicans are getting too cozy with the democrats.
He never said he was pro-Hillary. This is about Trump and Trump alone.

Without reading any responses I'm guessing they are (1) Who cares? Trump doesn't need Kasich anyway and/or (2) The Morning Joe show is out to get Trump and only invites people on who hate him.

The Rinos never liked Trump.. if they can't get over it, good bye.. good riddance.. they can't get on board because they are either jealous, or want Hillary in the White house. The latter is what I believe..


Trump will shake up Washington, look at the corruption and speak about it.. and they can't handle it.. so funny to see them all having conniptions over Trump and his honest approach.. it is quite telling that Washington can't handle the truth , and they can't control Trumps honesty.. ha ha!!

Ever hear the words "if you are not for it , you are against it".. ??? Cry baby Kasich..One thing I noticed about Kasich.. he could get really ugly when he got angry. A real turn off to me.

Kasich on Trump: 'I just can't do it' - POLITICO
Sure john. uh huh. Once again, to me he is part of the group of politicians(ie all of them) who have been mismanaging/running our country into the ground, maintaining a huge list of problems in this country that go unsolved/kick the can down the road type politics, ie ssn/medicare beyond mismanaged/underfunded, almost a 20 trillion debt, lots of nationwide infrastructure in deep need of repairs, 10's of millions out of work, a failed public school system, etc etc etc.

yeah john, we really feel for you/your decision. It resonates. We certainly need your type running the show forever and ever.

As they say marlow, if a citizen isn't angry about how our country is being "managed" by the current crop of politicians, one isn't thinking/tuned in.

We were finally able to sit down and discuss some of his ideas in great detail and I do have to admit that they are the direction we must take the country. Trump will be good for Ohio and the country.

I despise that kind of politics but IMO that is what will happen.
