Bill Kristol, the editor of the Weekly Standard, said he would likely look beyond both of the major parties if Trump, the clear frontrunner in the GOP's crowded presidential field, emerged with the party's nomination.

"I doubt I'd support Donald. I doubt I'd support the Democrat," Kristol told CNNMoney in an email. "I think I'd support getting someone good on the ballot as a third party candidate."

“Wonder if FOX has figured out that Trump’s 40% represents 60% of their viewers. Did they bring in CNN’s marketing crew?”

No kidding! They’ve been showing their true colors lately with all their “fair and balanced” BS. People are not going to buy them being another MSM outlet.

McCain and his damn gang of 8 really screwed things up and not for the good. That's why when Trump slammed McCain, people could not care less. Especially after being called whacko-birds, crazies, etc.

So screw Krystal and all the other KrauthammerWillJonah pundits who get rich off of do nothing blather.

Like we all said, Trump isn’t the one that needs to take the loyalty oath.

Absolutely right, this is just freaking hilarious. One of the guys that was shouting the loudest that Trump had to take the pledge.

So I guess in the end Trump will be the third-party type candidate after all, since these Republicans (not just Krystal) are apparently promising not to support their own party's candidate. Just freaking unbelievable, they deserve every open-borders, chamber of commerce, loser candidates they get.

I am so done with them.

They did it before, in 1980, with liberal Republican Anderson.

Why Not....its time to lose again but it will interesting to see how nasty he would get with Trump as opposed to how he treated Obama in 2012.

So he’s now dropped all pretense of being a “conservative” huh? Kristol is a little weasel who sits on his ass all day either spewing establishment intrigue or talking crap out of his mouth before a camera. There is no value added here for a conservative. None at all.
