Trump will make it easier for Democrats

As a lifelong Democrat, after watching the March 29 Republican town hall program, I hope and pray the GOP will choose Donald Trump to be their candidate for president of the United States, instead of an intelligent, experienced, honorable politician like John Kasich.

The blithering of Trump, his inane bragging and immeasurable conceit could bring him some votes, of course - his friend David Duke got some, too - but as measured against John Kasich, whom some Demo­crats fear as being an able, knowledgeable, accomplished competitor, he couldn't hope to compete against the likes of Sanders or Clinton.

At this point, I remain with the candidate of the Democrat party; but if Kasich were to get the nod, I think the election will be a close one, a very close one, and after hearing the positions of the candidates and their party. I will have to think again.
