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.

You left out 1815 when Blücher fell on Napolean’s right flank, turning a see-saw battle between Napoleon and Wellington into a French rout.

French might be smarter, but I notice he could not simply bow out with grace. Had to slime everything in sight.

Yea, it was like the punk who goes outside to the parking lot to fight and then chickens out and calls a few names over his shoulder before piling in his car and booking. No class.

I think some of the money people are going to throw their dollars at the Libertarian candidate Johnson...which will mean absolutely nothing.

“I am not going to run as an independent candidate for president of the United States.”

That’s interesting. Now, who are you?

That paper is a whole history lesson. French cabinet in session to await terms of Germany. We’ll battle alone, Britain says.

Time for Kristol to let that other genius, Erick Erickson, pick the next one.

That was quick.

Kristol is probably on the phone to Romney, begging ole Mitt to pick up the gauntlet.

Watching the GOP and the "True Conservative" reaction to Trump over the past year has been an astounding spectacle.

From Glenn Beck's insane meltdown....

...to Mitt Romney fighting harder than he ever did against Obama....

...to Bill Kristol's weird stunts and the entire National Review staff going into hysterics.

It's no damn wonder why our side has been losing so badly for so long.



The entire GOP and "Conservative" establishment are truly a bunch of weirdos and screwups. They wouldn't be able to get a job at $12 an hour in most places. But here they are. Multimillionaires.

The whole thing is a scam.

I wouldn't put these clowns in charge of a lemonade stand.
