He'll be out of office soon, so I'm not sure why President Trump is even bothering with him.  He's a RINO and hopefully he'll go away at the end of his term.  Apparently Johnny thinks he has a shot at the presidency in 2020; or ... he'll jump in and stay in to siphon votes like he did this past election. 

As his Trump rebukes intensify, what is John Kasich up to?

Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R), who refused to endorse Trump or even attend his party's nominating convention in Kasich's home state, had some more choice words for the president over weekend. The governor, speaking to the media from Germany, where Kasich was attending the Munich Security Conference, raised concerns about Trump's criticism of a free press, questionable support for U.S. allies in Europe, and even the scandal surrounding Russia's role in helping put the president in office.

Kasich added that he'd spoken directly with a variety of foreign officials, many of whom expressed concern about Trump and the direction of the United States.

And while the remarks were notable, let's not skip past the setting: what was the governor of Ohio doing at the Munich Security Conference, speaking with foreign officials?

For a guy who'll soon wrap up his second term – the governor cannot seek a third – Kasich seems awfully busy, weighing in on the health-care debate, attending a major international security conference, publicly taking issue with Trump's bizarre antics, and according to a Cleveland Plain Dealer report, watching a new organization take shape around him....

...I'm not saying John Kasich is definitely gearing up for a national 2020 campaign, but if the Ohio Republican were planning to lay the groundwork for another White House run, these are definitely the kinds of things he'd be doing....

Yes, I did ...for what it's worth ... and in other news ... it appears that President Trump is calling upon Kasich! Why President Trump would call upon Kasich is beyond me .. perhaps all FAKE news!  Who knows these days?

He always had those Mr. Bill lips that I wanted to punch.

He was one of Soros' stooges, so I'm sure he'll hook up with Hussein on his OFA community organizing project.

John Kasich: A poor man's John McCain.

LOL

I wonder what it's like, to actually believe ... you're the smartest guy in the room, with the lowest IQ.
Without exception, everytime I hear him speak, I think, "You must think we're really stupid..."

He's just having a "hey remember me?" moment.

Watching him speak, I find him rather annoying with all his hand and arm movements; he looks like an unbalanced windmill!   :lol:

That pair sounds like a good ticket for 2020. Wonder howfar they would get in the GOP primaries?

McAmnesty slimed Palin after he lost. Does Kasich truly want that joy on himself, after doddering senile John-John gets whipped like a rented dog?

This man let Obama steal America. Screw him hard and long and forever.

Keep your friend close and your enemy's closer! Kasick is a pretty good economist. Great with budgets! To get his assistance (whether you use it or not ) Could be a way of culling him! Remember Trump met with Al Gore too! Meeting with someone is hardly a commitment to Trump

Yeah, I hear as some people slide into dementia, they regress to child & infant like behavior, screaming from a crib, temper tantrums...
