Ohio Gov.John Kasich today would not commit to supporting frontrunner Donald Trump as the party's nominee, saying that he did not expect the real estate mogul to win.
"I think he's very divisive and I do not believe he will last," Kasich said when asked if he would support Trump if he wins the Republican primary.
Kasich pointed to Trump's recent back and forth with TheNew York Times reporter Serge Kovaleski as a reason he won't win the nomination. Trump has drawn criticism this week for appearing to mimic Kovaelski's mannerisms, caused by a muscular disorder, which Kasich said Trump "absolutely mocked."
"Somebody who divides this country, here in the 21st century, who's calling names of women and Muslims and Hispanics and mocking reporters, and says, ‘I didn't do it,' but he did do it, it's just not going to happen," said Kasich.

Who cares? Does Trump need this nobody’s support?
Did he sign the same document that Trump signed?
Go to h*ll John Kasich. You’re done.
This guy used to be the nice, affable guy in politics. Now, he’s just a dick.
TAKE THE PLEDGE! TAKE THE PLEDGE!
(Bill Bennett impersonation mode off-)
There are plenty of people who are registered Republicans who reliably vote Republican who will not vote for Donald Trump if he is the nominee.
I hope not but I live in Virginia and still have a very bad taste in my mouth for the Republican establishment in this state due to the treachery they employed to defeat Keeen Cuccinelli. Bastards.
Thanks to them we now have one of the slimiest democrat operatives ever as our governor. Terry McAwful.
Kasich wants to leave open the possibility of running as VP on a “fusion” ticket with Shrillary. Sound farfetched? Yes, but I put nothing past our RINOs anymore.
And there are millions who are registered as democrat or independent who will. There's also a whole helluva lot of Republicans who support him too.
For some reason, the Special Olympics just comes to mind.
And, I daresay, he used to be a dependable conservative. Now, he's just a dick.
I thought that all the candidates had to swear to support the nominee?
Ditto on your comments .... you’re not the only one still “smarting” from the treachery & T-Mac is totally disgusting.
John who?
Why would Trump want the psychopath’s endorsement to begin with.
There are plenty of is noon republicans that will take your place. So much for that big tent nonsense.
What will Donald do if he doesn’t get that Kasich support? Oh no!!!!
Pffff...
Why would he if he wants to be the nominee. The media is so dumb. They did this to Cruz and even Trump already. The media are scum.
