Bill Kristol is still BH that Hilary Clinton didn’t take the rigged 2016 election after stealing the 2016 primary.
Hillary and the media WANTED Donald Trump to secure the nomination (figuring he’d be easiest to beat, recall them saying after he won that he didn’t really want the office and would step down within 6 months).
If Donald Trump had failed to get the nomination, they figured at least he would tie up the nomination and use up all of the oxygen in the room. And they were hoping that he would have then started a third party to draw votes from the GOP runner up.
Which is what too many people want Trump to do today.
