A "divider" like GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump will have a hard time winning Ohio, an important battleground that could help decide the election in November, said Buckeye State Gov. John Kasich, a former Republican presidential candidate.
"Ohio's a snapshot of the country. People in Ohio want to see a positive agenda, a positive way to move forward," Kasich said Friday in an interview at the Union League of Philadelphia. He attended a fund-raiser for Brian Fitzpatrick, a Bucks County Republican running for an open congressional seat.
Kasich's remarks came a day after Trump accepted the Republican Party's nomination at its convention in Cleveland. Kasich, who dropped out of the presidential primary campaign in May after Trump effectively clinched the nomination, did not attend the convention.
"Without an endorsement, I thought it would be inappropriate for me to go in there and make some kind of a talk," Kasich said.

That mother #######!!!
Son of a #####!!
As I recall, Kasich let rampant voter fraud in his state sink Mitt Romney in 2012 so thanks a pant load, John.
Republicans can go straight to hell.
I registered new address as conservative. And even those leaders are bashing trump sometimes.
We need a new party.
Kasich will do everything in his power to make sure Trump loses Ohio . Looking at the electoral college map , and realizing how mch the demographic has changed since Bush won , I just don’t see how Trump or any Republican can win the presidency .
Something happens to everyone who goes to DC, they never leave the same. Is it the water, the air? Who knows, but this RINO clown has shown his true colors. STFU Kasich and go to hell.
Against two losers.
He has a better chance in Ohio than he has in New York and California. He should concentrate there.
What is wrong with this guy?
Trump definitely scored points with blue collar “forgotten” Americans in that speech, in Ohio and elsewhere.
Kasich is a colossal jackass who, like all the other ones, just comes across as a pouting spoiled brat.
I'd like to see Ted Cruz's response to Kasich's statement.
Ok, then Trump's their man. He's presented the most positive way forward of any GOP nominee since Reagan.
TDS.
Kasich is another one that needs to be politically dead.
I would love a Trump kid to move there later to primary him.
This mailman’s son is definitely not a patriot. Ohio needs to boot him out. No one wants to listen to him anymore.
It seems to me that Kasich also said that Trump wouldn’t be the nominee, he also said that Trump wouldn’t win the NH primary. So, Kasich has been stunningly wrong on his predictions, and will likely be wrong on this one as well.
Divider scumbag is Kasich.
Maybe he’s hoping Hillary will make him her VP pick.
