In reply to the discussion: Kasich Should Run A Primary Campaign Against Trump [View all]CitizenZero
(514 posts)15. My Question
My question is simple: who would you rather run against? Kasich or Trump? And why?
I would rather run against Kasich, because I would rather risk losing to him than risk losing to Trump, who is off the rails crazy and dangerous.
Also, I think it would be a better campaign season than running against Trump. Trump and most of his followers are impervious to reason. I do not agree with Kasich on policy, but his tone and temperament are not crazy and belligerent like Trump's.
