I agree with Root. I've been saying that Kasich is the pick that has the least downside AND has vast legislative experience. He also is young enough at 63 to weather one or two Trump administrations and then run on his own.

I would change Root's numbering of priorities.

#1 has to be the wall and illegal immigration. THAT is what makes Trump get listened to on the economy.

1. Wall

2. Economy

3. Criminal Clinton

4. Incompetent evil government

5. ObamaCare

ping for later reading. Spring is finally here and I’ve got outdoor work to do!! Thanks for the post!!

Good general advice.
He may have to take Kasich as his GHW Bush, though I think a Cynthia Lummis would be a better electoral choice.

There is a name missing here, the name of the one from-the-beginning principled conservative in the race, and whose supporters’ support will be essential for Trump to win the White House.

Bringing Kasich on board works.

Same as Reagan bringing HW Bush on board, satisfies the Establishment.

I seriously doubt Trump has interest, aptitude, or temperament to study and learn the details of all the great issues facing us. In addition, I don’t think veeps have very long coat tails. Kasich doesn’t guarantee a Midwest win.

And Townhall has been bashing Trump tirelessly ever since.

[Eccl 10:2]

I think the Kasich idea is a good one PROVIDED Trump does not soften his immigration stance, and that it is fully implemented without a peep of complaint from Kasich. Same for Trump’s healthcare policy.

Bring Ted Nugent on one of those flights to talk about our national parks. I would love to see Ted as Secretary of the Interior.

That, I must say, is BRILLIANT THINKING and a very definite path to winning the Presidency.

Mr Root’s thinking, I must say, is BRILLIANT THINKING and a very definite path to winning the Presidency.

A couple of problems.

Kasich isn’t going to agree to anything through a third party.

To date, Mr. Trump hasn’t shown any willingness to spend any measurable sum of money on his own campaign, despite countless TV ads running against him.

[CalTexan]

If your children are your greatest legacy, Trump is way better than Reagan in my book…

[MayflowerMadam]

Not Kasich. The Condit connection will be front and center, as well as the S&M club.

Not Bolton. RINO globalist.

Yes to Arpaio, Miller, Carson, Noonan (didn’t she write for Reagan?).

“when only two people in all of America believed it- me and Trump.”

He writes for TownHall and it’s “me and Trump”? How about “Trump and I”?

[SamAdams76]

This is a pretty good plan. But I would go with a different VP.

[patriot08]

We can only hope. Donald is our last chance to make American great and RESPECTED again.
DONALD IS OUR ONLY VOICE
The corrupt career politicians are scared to death of him.

God protect Donald. We need him.

[DoodleDawg]

You know, of course, that he will do none of that?
