Kasich: 'I am going to leave Cleveland as the nominee’
The Hill ^ | 4/14/16 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 04/15/2016 1:59:21 AM PDT by markomalley

Gov. John Kasich (R-Ohio) on Thursday said that he would become the GOP presidential nominee after a contested Republican National Convention.

“I am going to leave Cleveland as the nominee,” he said during the annual New York State GOP gala in New York City.

“Whether you believe it or not, it’s going to happen,” Kasich added. "We are going to go to a convention. This is not about the nomination. This is about who can win the White House after defeating Hillary Clinton.” Kasich said that either Clinton or Bernie Sanders would escalate the national debt if elected president.

“We have $19 trillion in debt,” he said. "When the debt goes up, your opportunities to get a job go down. By the time they’re done giving away all the free stuff, the debt will be up to $30 trillion and no one will be able to get a job. This is why we have to stop them.”

Kasich added that GOP voters should reject Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, because they are too unlikable.

“Do you know what will happen if we nominate people who have high negatives and can’t beat Hillary?” he asked. "There’s a very good chance your Senate majority leader becomes your Senate minority leader.

“We risk losing everything from the White House to the state house to the court house if we don’t promote a positive, uplifting message. It’s not pie in the sky," he said.

Knowing how the Republican Party operates, I would not doubt that in the least. And when they do, all the Hillary camp will have to do is plan her swearing in ceremony. On election day, Trump will get more write in votes than Kasich will get votes. And that includes the State of Ohio.

Kasich: ‘I am going to leave Cleveland as the nominee’,>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Kasich will be lucky to be able to even GET to Cleveland , because of the anti-Trump protests and demonstrations that Kasich, Cruz and the Democrats have already organized, while Trump has drawn crowds of 20 thousand people without any organizing at all.

Trump will be there in Cleveland with 1237.After sweeping New York and Maryland, Trump will only need 332 delegates out of the remaining 662 available.

Trump now has it in the bag, which has the MSM, Washington, the eGOP and the Leftists ashats of the Dem party , rummaging for garlic, silver bullets, and cruciform oaken stakes.

What a riot!

VOTE TRUMP

You don’t sound very undecided

BTW your assessment is pretty much wrong. Trump is running on a platform that is pretty much center-Right to Right.
Nobody is going to run on a platform and then say “Sorry, fooled ya!”

There are valid reasons to not vote for Donald Trump but the “He’s a liberal in disguise” isn’t one of them

Haven’t we suffered enough?

Seven years of Obama and now we get threats like this.

What did we do wrong to deserve Kasich?

And, should all you proclaim to be fact does not happen, will you have the guts and grace to say you were wrong?

I doubt it.

Surprise us all.

This guy needs to be committed!

I hope he knows he finished whatever chance he had for a future presidential run.

Whats extremely significant to me about Trump is the budgetary discrepency between what has been spent by Trump as compared to Cruz, Kasich and others.

The Donald knows how to stretch a buck, and get the job done at the same time. America has not seen the like in several generations.

That alone makes so many want to VOTE FOR TRUMP.
