Trump Asks Kasich To Clear Out And Stop Taking His Votes

Republican front-runner Donald Trump had a strange demand of John Kasich on Sunday. He said that the Ohio Gov. should drop out of the GOP race as Kasich was siphoning off his votes off by just staying in the race. Such strategies were not fair, Trump meant.

Trump said he had already stated what he felt about the rival in a recently-conducted meeting with the Republican National Committee last week.

"All he's doing is just, he goes from place to place, and loses, and he keeps running. Well, why doesn't Marco Rubio do that? Why doesn't Jeb Bush do that? Why didn't all of them do that?" Trump said.

"Now if he wants to go and have his name put in nomination in the convention, he can do that. He doesn't have to run and take my votes. Because he's taking my votes. He's not taking Cruz's votes. He's taking my votes."

It is obvious that his statements show his growing perturbation over the rival's steady drive. Even though Trump still holds a trump card by a significant margin, there were a number of worrying statements last week, such as those on abortion and Ted Cruz's wife, that may be putting up some roadblocks on Trump's popularity.

He is a bit concerned about the Wisconsin primaries, especially as he lost the significant state of Iowa to Cruz. Many polls predict that there would be a repeat of the voting pattern in Iowa. For instance, a poll conducted by the Marquette Law School shows that magnate is behind his contestant by 10 percent.

With rivals Ted Cruz and John Kasich, therefore, Trump has a number of reservations.

"It's very unfair because he's taking our votes. Anybody could have stayed in. You could have had Jim Gilmore stay in. I mean, to be honest with you, Gilmore could have just stayed in. A guy like George Pataki could have just stayed in, he had zero. So it's very unfair that Kasich stays in, is my opinion," Trump said.
