Kasich had no effect on anything.
Sounds like you have been unable to follow news coverage of the race, or you were unable to comprehend it.
Kasich helped divide the Anti-Trump vote so that Trump could get the higher third of the vote percentage over the divided Anti-Trump vote, even though in most cases the Anti-Trump vote was far more than the Trump vote, so with only one challenger, Trump would have lost each race.
The period between Rubio dropping out and Indiana was less fruitful.
In WI, Cruz got 48% and Kasich 14%. Without Kasich, Cruz would have went over 50% and won the 6 delegates which went to Trump.
In NY, the 5 delegates that went to Kasich could have gone to Cruz.
In RI, the 5 delegates that went to Kasich would have gone to Cruz.
In PA, the 4 delegates that went to Kasich could have gone to Cruz.
Therefore, instead of the delegates for Trump of 265, and 126 for Cruz (margin of 139 for Trump) and 14 for Kasich, it would have been 259 for Trump and 146 for Cruz - for a margin of 113 for Trump, in a Northeast region where Trump's backyard should have given him overwhelming margin instead of merely 70% of the take, and such a region was the hardest stretch for Cruz' campaign. Without Kasich helping Trump, there still would have been a path for Cruz to win.
Do I need to make it simpler for you?

There was *NEVER* a path for Cruz to win.
What are you, like one of the three people in this country who actually like this piece of shit?
Trump won with the highest recorded number of primary votes of any Republican candidate in history.
He's exactly the piece of shit you pieces of shit want, voted for, and deserve. I hope you fucking choke on his cock and die, because that's what the fuck you get for being a fascist swine.

I think it is you who is the extremist, you can disagree with people but calling for the deaths of your fellow Americans is not cool
Go fuck yourself, you piece of shit. You call for the deaths of people every fucking day.

Quote:Simple but the true explanation for why your favorite Republican lost to Trump is that working class Republicans did not vote in the primary.

Counterintuitive fact about Trump’s voters: As compared with most Americans, Trump’s voters are better off. The median household income of a Trump voter so far in the primaries is about $72,000, based on estimates derived from exit polls and Census Bureau data. It is $91,000 for Kasich voters.
Your guy lost, not because of Kasich, but because the working class Republicans did not like your guy and would not vote for him. They didn’t vote for anybody! They simply stayed home and watched on TV while your favorite candidate got massacred by Trump and Kasich and their wealthier voters.
You could claim that the Silent Majority would have voted for your favorite if only Kasich had not “discouraged” them from voting, but do you find that believable? What discouraged them from voting for your very popular candidate or any candidate?

Mike Johnson REFUSES to condemn Trump’s call for the execution of Democratic lawmakers. Instead, he goes after the lawmakers for their “very dangerous” call for the military to refuse to obey ILLEGAL orders.
