Team Kasich hits back at Trump over ‘disgusting’ remark

John Kasich’s campaign shot back at front-runner Donald Trump for criticizing Kasich’s “disgusting” eating.

“.@RealDonaldTrump, we were looking for some Trump steaks for the governor, but no one seems to sell them anymore,” Team Kasich tweeted on Monday, firing back at the front-runner’s comments.

The tweet also included a photo of Trump eating.

“Did you see him? He has a news conference, all the time when he’s eating. I have never seen a human being eat in such a disgusting fashion,” Trump said.

During his time in New York, Kasich received media attention for all he ate while traveling around the state.

“I’m always telling my young son Baron, always with my kids, all of them, I say, ‘Children, small, little bites,” Trump said.

“This guy takes a pancake and he’s shoving it in his mouth,” he said of Kasich. “It’s disgusting.” 

“Do you want that for your president? I don’t think so.”
