Is Kasich doing anything other than helping Trump at this point?

Building name recognition for 2020 if the Republicans don't win; angling for a VP/cabinet pick if they do.

Surely he's antagonizing the party's establishment though.

He also only told you guys about Alfred Russel and not my other active sock puppet, so I should give him credit for that.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

The establishment has already demonstrated how powerless they are in the face of Trump, the Tea Party, and everyone else. The only thing the GOP establishment has done well is piss away millions of dollars.

Governor Chris Christie Endorses Donald Trump

Unfuckingbelievable.  :(

The guy grew up in New Jersey and is a Cowboys fan. You shouldn't be so shocked to see him bandwagoning.

It would be weird if he became Trump's VP. A New York-New Jersey alliance?

Giuliani must not be far behind then.  :hmm:

It'll give the media something to chew on over the weekend.

If we just stick with the "establishment lane" republicans, how is it that a field starting with the (in republican terms) successful governor of Wisconsin, the successful governor of Ohio, the successful former governor of Florida, the governor of Louisiana, a conservative governor of New Jersey, and a rather famous former governor of Arkansas down to a freshman senator from Florida that seems undistinguished in every way and appears unable to be competitive in his own state in the primary?

I agree that change is necessary and, to an outsider like me, the US system of campaign finance looks suspiciously like legalised bribing, but there must be less harmful solutions than Donald Trump.

I heard Kasich is going to endorse him, even before he drops out!  :P
