Kasich camp on Trump's poll woes: Told you so
politico ^

Posted on 06/30/2016 7:49:01 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

John Kasich suspended his run for president nearly two months ago, but his campaign is still arguing that he, and not Donald Trump, would be the best candidate to take on Hillary Clinton. On Wednesday, the Ohio governor's top political adviser trumpeted a new round of polls that showed Kasich besting Clinton in swing states — and showed Trump getting decimated.

“Under a modeled electorate, Trump loses every swing state by 6-12 points. Governor Kasich wins 6 out of 7 swing states. Speaker Ryan wins 2 out of 7 swing states,” wrote John Weaver, Kasich’s former senior campaign adviser, in an email to supporters. “This data is just further proof that Governor Kasich is the most popular Republican politician in the nation today and it underlines why his efforts to help our U.S. Senate and House candidates are so very important.

Pollutico is nothing more than a shill organization for the NWO. Take everything they say with a grain of salt.

Rasmussen poll highlighted earlier in this thread shows Trump up 43/39.

Go away, Kasich.

There are whole swaths of the electorate essentially unreachable by telephone by pollsters, including me; it just makes me wonder how accurate ANY poll is.

Stupid KAsick’s pledge to support the nominee was as good as any other campaign promise. It has a shelf-life of about 5 minutes.

If this story is accurate, it shows how woefully inadequate the current Republican Party older generation is for the state of the world. Trump is 70, but he is WAY MORE YOUTHFUL in his outlook and energy than apparatchiks like Kasich.

I still think younger GOP officials— folks like Ryan, Rubio, Stefanik, Cotton, etc. are in a tough spot. They may want to stand on principle but the lure of the establishment and its power is tempting...

a new round of polls that showed Kasich besting Clinton in swing states

What could possibly be the purpose of this kind of polling when Trump is the nominee? The answer is obvious.

Kasich would never in a million years call out CLinton the way Trump did will continue to do. He’s a first rate coward, and @ss kisser. I say heck with all of them, but Trump, being the business man he is, is not going to settle that way. He will work hard to still get their support, just like you would if you had a product you were selling to the public.

Modeled electorate. As in modeled climate change. Just create whatever narrative suites the purpose being advanced and the media will hop on it. Kasich is a prop for the GOPe and comes off sounding just plain goofy. During the primary debates he acted disorientated and flailed around a lot. Another governor with nothing better to do than take a leave from his elected job to play at being a viable candidate for the presidency.

How many delegates did he win?

A Hillary suck-up now. A true-blue Democrat.

Why is anyone writing about him or inviting him to speak?

Only a loser network more interested in Hillary than Trump.

One-state Kasich. His home state. Third or worse just about everywhere else.

Yeah, he would have been a force to be reckoned with in the primary!
