Policies really for the first times in their careers. >> okay. ron, going back to what we just heard donald trump say during the campaign, that these generals dont know nothing from nothing, so what changed? >> yeah. look, donald trump is an executive and he likes executives. i think thats a clear pattern here. we are not only seeing generals being put in these positions, but you are seeing a number of even former business officials. linda mcmahon and wilbur ross. theres a kind of preference for...

Do you take his request to you to heart? >> well, governor kasich is certainly right on the last point. that we do need unity. and maybe i made a mistake by even naming him. im looking for a candidate like john kasich, i thought i put that in the op-ed. someone with executive experience. >> but who will you vote for? >> im in a deliberations phase. >> i see. so you were thinking about john kasich but he says no, thank you. now youre going to vote for somebody, doesnt have to be somebody who ran ...

Someone with executive experience, legislative experience, and it may offend some of your viewers, but a republican. im going to vote for a republican. its just not going to be donald trump. >> so you would not try to throw the outcome to hillary clinton. you would want to absolutely vote for a republican. >> thats, thats my plan. and i think theres got to be someone out there who fits the bill and fits the need and will stand up. >> christopher suprun, thank you for joining us, really appreciat...
