Is former Ohio governor John Kasich making another run at the White House?
On Friday, Kasich put out a cryptic tweet. He wrote, "Appreciate all the encouragement to challenge President Trump in 2020. Know that while the paths looks tough, all of my options are on the table."
When Kasich spoke with our Will Ujek during a Let's Be Clear interview in February, he said at the time he was unsure about running.
"I really don't know," Kasich said to Ujek about 2020. "I mean, the politics is ever-changing and my options are still on the table but it's time to kind of move on with some things."
At that time had not assembled an exploratory committee for the election.
"Here's what I do know," Kasich added. "If I don't think I can win, then it'd be no purpose to running."
When it comes to Trump, Kasich reiterated that he doesn't back the president but also doesn't want to increase the country's divide.
"I don't call names," Kasich said. "I don't agree with him. I didn't vote for him. I didn't support him and I'm disappointed we have so much division."
