Marco Rubio’s campaign says supporters of the Florida senator should back John Kasich in Ohio on Tuesday if they want to stop Donald Trump.
Republican presidential candidates have each called on voters to consolidate and unite behind their campaigns, but the Rubio campaign’s suggestion appears to be the fiercest example yet of the anti-Trump movement, aimed at doing whatever it takes to bar the New York billionaire from accruing the 1,237 delegates necessary to secure the Republican nomination outright.
Alex Conant, Rubio’s communications director, acknowledged that Kasich is the only candidate who can defeat Trump in Ohio, which awards all of its 66 delegates to the winner. “If you are a Republican primary voter in Ohio and you want to defeat Donald Trump, your best chance in Ohio is John Kasich,” Conant told CNN on Friday.

Wow! So Rubio says "Don't vote for me" to all of Ohio just in order to ruin another candidate's chances and ignoring the fact that he thinks he can me the best president???
ReplyDeleteThat means Rubio thinks he's NOT the best candidate for president.
I don't think Rubio is the best one either, especially after this move, So vote for Trump, Ohio! When you have an obvious jackass calling Trump a jackass, I'm pretty sure one of them is NOT a jackass!
