Said Kasich is a tremendous person and he thinks his best job is as VP.

I thought that was his most interesting and telling off the cuff statement. Said he didn’t mention Kasich as president because he thinks his job will be VP.

Kasich and Newt are VERY close. Kasich is in the race still to leverage his delegates to a VP slot. Trump would be the only one to leverage that because Cruz would need more than the mailman’s delegates to get to 1237.

Hopefully Trump gets to 1237 without
Kasich.

Just from reading posts on this thread, I think Newt is advocating a bit of "establishment" be part of Trump's governing team. Newt is a huge establishment guy, as much on the NWO train as GHWB and his son GWB are.

I like Newt. I'd have voted enthusiastically for him in the general. But he's not a nationalist.

Agree with your conclusion, "Hopefully Trump gets to 1237 without Kasich."

I agree. I seem to recall Newt saying recently that Kasich helped him push through various budgetary bills in congress. I’ve read some posts on FR that say that Newt thinks of Kasich like a son.
