Eliot A. Cohen served in the Defense and State departments in the George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush administrations, respectively.
It's over. Donald Trump, a man utterly unfit for the position by temperament, values and policy preferences, will be the Republican nominee for president. He will run against Hillary Clinton, who is easily the lesser evil but is trailed by clouds of scandal and misconduct and whose party's left wing poses its own threats to liberties of speech, religion, enterprise and association.
It is time for a third candidate, and probably for a third party.

Ha Ha...Trump is the third party! What this poltroon wants is the old second wing of the uniparty back. Go on. Run 1% Jeb. Trump will beat his ass and Hillary’s at the same time.
Translation: He will hand the corrupt lying bitch her fat @ss. Get someone in there to throw things.
“I should have been more clear; the left will fund a candidate that will pose as a center/right alternative to Trump. Of course they would never break up their own 47% if they can help it.”
Except that Trump is Center Right. I don’t think they could find a Perot type guy because Trump holds that ground.
He is less doctrinaire than Cruz was on several issues and that is why many of the “moral” or social conservatives don’t like him.
The fact that the GrOP-E hates him is a plus when it comes to attracting disaffected demodogs.
A third party may hurt PIAPS more than Trump
Yeh, uh no!
Where is your opus?
bow tie. enough said.
The evil uni-party shills raising their ugly heads. Send them back to the Dems and give us the blue collar Sander voters.
Geez folks we are doomed to have a man so unfit to be president
If only he had the temperament, values and policy preferences of hillary, or obama -
Why don’t we unite behind The Donald, kick EVERYBODY’S ass, and Make America Great Again?
Or, just enough to hand it to Hildabeast. These morons who are talking third party must be the dumbest individuals on earth. They can't even recall back as far as Ron Paul.
Sure why don’t they just start the Lyin’ Ted Party with the Conservative Circlejerk as Campaign Manager?
Hillary set up American government employees to be attacked and then left them to die.
Just what has Donald Trump done that has even come close to that?
If Trump has one virtue it is that he loves the USA. If Hillary and Bernie have one flaw it is that they hate the USA.
Trump wasn't my first choice or my second but for the love of George Washington GET A GRIP!
He looks as queer as a three dollar bill.
It figures he “served” in the loser Bush administrations.
“A third party may hurt PIAPS more than Trump”
that’s what I think also. What they want to do is the “Marshall Coleman” strategy, to throw the thing to Hillary.
But a pure neo-con probably takes more votes from her than Trump.
The immigration crackdown seems to be the magic bullet that has outed these open borders “conservatives” to confess that they prefer Hillary.
They seem to think that Jews will somehow be safer if America is turned into a white minority, third world dominated free-for-all.
That third party candidate is Bernie Sanders. (I can dream)
Going out in a ball of flames...
Anything to save the election win for Hillary.
Bingo! That was the pull quote.
Hillary is the lesser evil? She must have dirt on this guy.
