I’m not the right person to challenge Trump and Hillary... (David French)
National Review ^ | June 5, 2016 | David French

Posted on 06/05/2016 6:01:54 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

Here is a sentence I never thought I’d type: After days of prayer, reflection, and serious study of the possibilities, I am not going to run as an independent candidate for president of the United States.

I gave it serious thought — as a pretty darn obscure lawyer, writer, and veteran — only because we live in historic times. Never before have both parties failed so spectacularly, producing two dishonest, deceitful candidates who should be disqualified from running for town council, much less leader of the free world.

“Never before have both parties failed so spectacularly, producing two dishonest, deceitful candidates who should be disqualified from running for town council, much less leader of the free world”

Kristol’s bitch doesn’t like who the voters chose as their preferred nominee on the GOP side. He appears to be a dishonest, self-important douche, so he’ll have a future as a politician of some kind. Maybe a city councilman of a small city.

It is my reluctant duty to announce that I, Rev Wright, will not be a candidate for President in 2016.

Despite the millions (!) across the country begging me to run, I hold with the “pre-Cruz” standard that qualified candidates for President must be born in the USA.

Rev. Wright

PS. I also have to announce that by the “National Review” standard, I no longer qualify as a “true conservative” since I am not an open borders traitor to America.

French must have read Hillary’s comments about Trump being German, and he realized what the Germans do to the French.

A wise decision on his part.

Sadly, The National Review will never be forgiven if Clinton becomes President and will never again be a credible conservative voice.

It turns out that David French is a lot smarter and a lot more in touch with reality than the Neo-Cons who tried to push him into being a spoiler and making a fool of himself.

I really don’t want to get into it at this point, but if Krystal calls me, I’ll take up the banner and run. Of course, all the Krystal burgers in Texas have closed down, so it’s not like I can get on the ballot here.

I see someone didn’t want to become a national laughingstock.

French is one haughty individual with a sky-high opinion of himself. He’s a poor writer. If anyone takes a look at his articles at NR they are brutal to read. Plodding & dense would be the kindest way to describe his work.

Does this mean that French will stop whining about Trump in his articles?

If he doesn’t have the balls to run he should at least shut up.

What's the French national anthem? I Surrender, Dear

What's the bestselling book in France? A Farewell to Arms

Why did they discontinue fireworks displays at Disneyland in Paris? Because each time they shot off fireworks, the French tried to surrender.

>>He believes an American judge — a man born in Indiana who spent months hiding from drug cartels after they’d put a “hit” on him – can’t rule on a case involving Trump University because the judge’s parents emigrated from Mexico.

The problem is that the judge is connected to a racist organization called the “La Raza Lawyers”. I don’t care where he was born. But, I wonder, does he speak with a Spanish accent after growing up in Indiana?

Maybe Romney can suss out a way to embarrass himself even more than he already has. Perhaps he will reconsider Kristol’s madness and run as a spoiler.

Trump called out the LaRaza judge because of biased rulings. But, the nonsense the judge pulled was too complicated for sound bites, hence the LaRaza connection.
