Kasich, Cruz teaming up is a joke

You thought the Republican presidential primary race couldn’t get any more nauseating. You thought wrong.

The latest bit of dreck being tossed at the public is the Ted Cruz-John Kasich tag team match to keep Donald Trump from getting enough delegates to win the nomination on the first ballot.

Listen, Trump is a fraud and totally unqualified to be president, but he’s right about this – it’s a joke.

Ted Cruz may be even more dangerous than Trump. He’s a religious fanatic, and he’s totally despised by his colleagues in the Senate.

And his whole spiel – his entire campaign – is based on the fact he’s not Trump.

Yes, says Cruz, vote for me because Trump sucks. Yeah, that’s a guy you want to lead the country.

As for Kasich, he’s a nice guy, And a total cipher as a candidate.

He won his home state of Ohio, hasn’t been close anywhere else, and again, he says he’s not Trump.

If these guys want the nomination – and hope to win a contested convention – let them win because they have something to offer the country.

They shouldn’t win anything just because they think they can stop Trump.

They think they can accomplish what they want by each concentrating on different states.

But neither has anything to offer.

And the GOP joke campaign continues.
