Trump specifically said someone who shares his views. I particularly remember reading what he said his requirements were in a VP.
Almost no one could be further from his views than Kasich; there are multiple dozens of potential VPs with deecee experience and Kasich has not a thing else to recommend him.
Trump doesn’t need a dickwad to win.
I never suggested I don't know who he is, or that I remotely like him, or that he shares much with Trump.
You can complain til the cows come home, but he's going to be on the short list for the reasons I said.
Doesn't mean he'll get it. A lot depends on who else is around, what they offer to a ticket that can win, and how things shake up, yes?
