It hurts Trump more for a couple of reasons. It increases the chances of a brokered convention happening, and most of his voters support Trump over Cruz.First let me state that if GOPers had any sense at all, they would have backed Kasich as the most moderate and sensible of the remaining candidates....That stated, the question in the thread's title arise, and an argument could be made as to whether Kasich takes away votes from trump or Cruz.
What's your take?
I think so far he has hurt Cruz more fighting for the #nevertrump crowd. However given the states coming up in the north east that won't play well for Cruz I think Kasich will take a bite or two from Trump with the ultimate goal of going to a contested convention. So, in the end he probably hurts Trump more.
Nope.Let me put it this way: without Kasich, Cruz might even be beating Trump at this point, so I think Cruz is the loser in all this.

Yes, well we've all seen how well the GOP has done with moderates and RINO's the last few elections.
The definition of insanity................
If democrats had any sense at all they would have backed former Reagan appointed asst secy Navy and war hero not to mention world class novelist Jim Webb as the most moderate and sensible of the democrat candidates but the DNC chose an old commie and the shrill wife of a degenerate former president. According to GOP rule 40, Kasich is out of the race.
Agreed. Webb is great. This Bernie nonsense is making me question if some of you republicans are right and a big part of the Democrat party really is the people you stereotype them as.If democrats had any sense at all they would have backed former Reagan appointed asst secy Navy and war hero not to mention world class novelist Jim Webb as the most moderate and sensible of the democrat candidates but the DNC chose an old commie and the shrill wife of a degenerate former president.

I doubt that Kasich will take significant numbers from Trump. He just got slaughtered in Wisconsin and I doubt anyone is going to really take him very seriously any more. He might sget some from Rhode Island, but who knows? I would never have believed that Cruz could pull over 50% in Wisconsin.

But the GOP Establishment is perfect at manipulating the dunderheads into playing into their tricks and traps every time.
Cruz will not get the nomination. He is a spoiler for the Establishment choice and who knows who that will be.
I swear Webb would have been the best candidate in either party. I'm a die hard republican but I think I might have pressed the democrat button if Webb was the DNC choice. They paraded him up on the stage but they never gave him a chance. Too bad Webb didn't reconsider and run as a republican.Agreed. Webb is great.

In this race, Kasich is the closest thing to the establishment as they can get. So if they want to upset the apple cart, they will nominate Kasich which is why he's still in the race.
Trump and Cruz can't be controlled by the establishment or anybody else for that matter. Kasich will bark like a dog anticipating a cookie for doing as he's told. That's what the establishment wants.
However, by making such a choice, they face the destruction of the Republican party for many years to come. Trump voters will change parties to Independent or Libertarian, somebody may start a new party, the TP could be reactivated.
But everybody has a chance supposedly. That's why these candidates "suspend" their campaigns instead of just quitting. Yes, it's a lottery ticket, but a ticket worth holding.
