Shabibilicious Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 John Kasich Joins CNN as a Contributor Jon Levine,The Wrap 2 hours 6 minutes ago John Kasich has joined CNN as a contributor, the network told TheWrap on Tuesday. The former Republican Ohio governor has emerged as one of President Trump’s fiercest critics on cable news and is frequently speculated as a possible candidate for a long-shot challenge to the billionaire in 2020. The move is a significant evolution for Kasich, who spent years as a stalwart in Republican politics both as a governor and congressman. From 2001 to 2007, he hosted his own show “Heartland” on Fox News. Kasich was one of the last Republicans standing in a crowded field during the 2016 GOP primary. He hung in the race long enough to win his own state of Ohio, even though his real chances of taking the nomination from Trump had evaporated long before then. On the trail, Trump savagely attacked Kasich in starkly personal terms. When the governor came to campaign in the New York primary, Trump memorably went after his eating habits.

I have never seen a human being eat in such a disgusting fashion,” Trump ripped at the time. “I’m always telling my young son Baron, always with my kids, all of them, I say, ‘Children, small, little bites.” As a prominent #NeverTrump Republican, Kasich’s name has been floated by some on the right one who could launch a primary challenge to Trump in 2020. The move has never been successfully carried out in modern times and Kasich is on record tamping down the speculation.

Pitcher Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 He wouldn’t beat Trump. He couldn’t do it in the primaries in 2016. He should join the Dems were he would have a better chance. Not. How many candidates have joined the race. 20. Insane. Please choose Beto, Please! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitcher Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 You may be correct BA. It might depend on what he gets accomplished or if they have grounds for an impeachment. I haven’t seen anything yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2016 Trump model, no......The 2019 and beyond Trump model, certainly. "Hamberders", indeed. I'll give him credit though....he did pay for all those hamberders and I'm glad he let us know he did.

Pitcher Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 Let’s see how it plays out. The next two years are going to be interesting to say the least. If we RV by the 4th like the gurus are saying I’ll be in Hawaii or Florida and won’t give 2 hoots about who wins. Back to trading. Killing it today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
