Donald Trump thinks John Kasich should no longer be allowed to run for president
On Sunday in Milwaukee, Donald Trump said it's time for the Republican race to wind down to just two candidates.
"[John] Kasich shouldn't be allowed to run," he said. "Look, under the grounds that Rand Paul could've stayed in, and he had nothing. Marco Rubio could've stayed in. Jeb Bush could've stayed in. They all could've stayed." Trump said the Ohio governor is "1-for-29," and the only thing he "barely" won was his home state. "If I spent one more day in Ohio, I would've beat him," he said. So far, 32 states have held Republican primaries and caucuses.
