GOP CONVENTION | Kasich addresses Hispanic organization


CLEVELAND (AP)

As Donald Trump receives the formal nomination for president Tuesday, Ohio Gov. John Kasich will be nearby, speaking instead to the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

Trump has angered Hispanics with his call to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico and make Mexico pay for it. Kasich has refused to endorse Trump and is skipping the convention even though it is in Ohio.

Trump's campaign chairman called Kasich's decision to skip the convention in Cleveland "petulant" and "embarrassing." Kasich's advisers say he's trying not to be rude but has moved on to helping down-ticket candidates.
