Kasich: I'm not endorsing Trump (yet) -- or serving as his VP
cnn ^

Posted on 05/18/2016 8:32:34 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Washington (CNN)John Kasich signaled Monday that he still harbors deep uneasiness with Donald Trump as the Republican nominee, declining to endorse him and reiterating that he will not serve as Trump's vice president.

Even now that he's left the race, Kasich is resisting calls to serve as Trump's No. 2, portraying his pitch and Trump's as fundamentally incompatible. Kasich said he was "not inclined" to run with Trump and that he had "not changed my mind."

Because he’s a typical “bought off” politician.

Kasich - “I’m irrelevant and I would like to take this opportunity to make sure everyone knows it - I’m a classless liar too as my word is worthless.”

John, take my advice and don't hold your breath waiting for Trump to ask you.

Milt Romley and the Cubanadian are up to something at the convention, eh? Mark my words.

Howdy Doody is hedging his bets, it would seem.

As an Ohio “Republican”(or whatever that is anymore)I voted for Trump in the primary. Kasich is too liberal.

This guy is an unmitigated freak. No one...and I mean no one...would want this degenerate near them in any way. What an abject loser.

“I fully realize now that this was all kabuki - an act. One of abject evil duplicity. He his in the end nothing more than just another lying establishment player.”

Yeah, just like Issa, Gowdy, and a whole host of “repubicans” who are all horn and no driveshaft! If we did an honest assessment of the Congress, we would RIF 90% of them. They have made “conservative” a perjorative term.

Thank God! That is one reason why I want trump to get 1237 so he can pick his personal choice as VP instead of having to chose Rubio or Kasick for the delegates. Trump won’t need them. Yeah!

What a fraud! “Not inclined” means he’d take it in a second. And he can’t bring himself to endorse a party nominee that he’d jump to run with?

Pathetic and embarrassing.

But he’s a leftist and I really do hope Trump goes right in his selection. The beauty is that the GOPe who have been falsely claiming Trump isn’t conservative enough for them would have no basis for complaint if he opted for a real conservative.

The real problem is that so few real conservatives have the DC legislative experience he’s looking for—but “Hello, Gov. Fallin!”

I don't think Trump would stoup as low as to ask Kasick or Cruz or Rubio to be even a team player...

So they can go join the Bushes/Clinton Crime Families...

Hey, what about that reporter that was killed, oh sorry, committed ‘suicide’....did he really have that information???

Sounds more like the Clintons, “Vince Foster and how many other people died”....

“Kasich: I’m not endorsing Trump (yet) — or serving as his VP”

And we care because...why?

Bill Kristol and Mitt Romney are looking to form a “Sour Losers” Party ... John Kasich can take his happy shallow little phony baloney optimism and join up with them. He too can be a sour puss...

Trump hardly hit Kasich at all. Why is he refusing to endorse Trump when he signed a pledge to do so”

Trump hardly hit little Johnny b/c he was never relevant. I’d wager that his refusal to endorse is borne of his continuing quest for relevance.

You won’t see Trump crawling to little Johnny for an endorsement because after all this, he remains irrelevant.
