Bill Kristol, who is leading the effort to find an independent candidate to run against Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, said Sunday that he had found one.
Just a heads up over this holiday weekend: There will be an independent candidate–an impressive one, with a strong team and a real chance.

Donald was not too happy about it.
Bill Kristol has been wrong for 2yrs-an embarrassed loser, but if the GOP can't control their own, then they are not a party. Be tough, R's!

The Republican Party has to be smart & strong if it wants to win in November. Can't allow lightweights to set up a spoiler Indie candidate!

If dummy Bill Kristol actually does get a spoiler to run as an Independent, say good bye to the Supreme Court!

I just realized, I have been a Trump supporter since 1988. Go home Kristol, you’re drunk ;)

Who on earth do they think would be “impressive with a strong team?”
Can anyone think of a Repub who fits that description?
I do believe a segment of the Repubs have collectively lost their ever lovin’ minds.
Not this year. Otherwise we’d be rooting for a Perry/Walker by now (my original favs). I can’t think of anyone stronger than the 17 Trump defeated already?
The RINOs see an opening and they’re going to grab it.
RINO v RINO then?
“I do believe a segment of the Repubs have collectively lost their ever lovin’ minds.”
The RINOs have, the conservatives haven’t.
This Country is in dire need of conservative Patriots, not people that admire the status quo.
Very interesting. But, but, but his critics are saying he’s making it all up on the fly??? Could they be wrong? But they’re sooooo smart and clever, they couldn’t possibly be wrong. Could they? ;+}
He hasn’t changed his stripes on the main issues.
America first.
MAGA !
MAGA–is that “Mexican”?
Has Bill Kristol has morphed into Billy Crystal.
Is the Weekly Standard now doing Weekly Stand-up?
Call: 1-800-KublerRoss – you need help.
Kristol is a closet liberal democrat…..they’re all starting to come out of the woodwork now that Trump has clinched the nomination. Just like cockroaches; what they don’t eat up or carry off, they fall into and spoil.
Krystol is an idiot….he obviously wants to split the party and Hillary the Hun will
win….arrogant and stupid
He is not a closet Dem–but he also is not the conservative his dad was. Everyone has issues…
I’ll look at who they come up with. If Johnson takes 10%, whoever this is takes some, well, the cookie will be crumbling. I refuse to back Trump just to keep Hillary out. The cost is way too high.
I can think of two libertarians running.
Gary Johnson and John McAfee,(the anti-virus guy).
Glenn Beck has interviewed both on his radio show.
I think there is another one but I can’t recall his name.
They are having their convention in Florida.
Bill Kristol is about as influential as Karl Rove.
Bill Kristol: “blah, blah, mumble, blah independent candidate”:
Translation: “my friends and I don’t give a fat rat’s patootie what the Repub voters want, or what their so-called message is, we want a candidate who will split the vote and throw the election to either MrsClinton, or to Congress to decided the winner. We have money to burn and are planning to spend it freely.”
More than anything, this shows how scared of losing their grip on DC power the RINO’s truly are. They know a 3rd candidate would ensure Hillary but they make more money if she’s POTUS. They don’t give a crap about the country, just themselves.
And the “just a heads up over this holiday weekend..” Hey butthead, it’s NOT a “holiday” it’s Memorial Day!
Well said. This old boys club is offended that the new kid is about to be crowned as the head of their frat, and they are fuming. Kristol is sounding like a spoiled brat, hellbent to hold on to his Hershey bar….pathetic

“They don’t give a crap about the country, just themselves.” That is a true statement.
Great comment, Geoff
Wow–Trump really did protesteth a lot.
Trump speaketh the truth! Are you willing to hand over the Supreme Court to Hillary Clinton?
That is supposed to be the game changing argument for sure–but I see many more factors in play.
Speaking of alternative parties, I read the WaPo story today on the Libertarians…Some (not Johnson) don’t think you should have to take a driver’s test. That sort of left me in the dust.
Maybe he should get together with this guy:

Bill Kristol is totally wrong on this. We do not need another candidate to run against Trump. We the people have listened too long to the establishment
types. Go Trump!
Looks like the 13-year=old tween bitch girl Dawnie Frumples still can’t conceive that there are those who still wouldn’t vote for her if their lives depended on it…
