Anthony Scaramucci talks to Bill Kristol about trying to force Trump off the GOP ticket in 2020
CNBC ^ | August 16, 2019 | Brian Schwartz

Posted on 08/16/2019 2:34:23 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The “Never Trump” movement has a new ally: hedge fund boss Anthony Scaramucci, who was fired in 2017 after serving 11 days as communications director in President Donald Trump’s White House.

Anti-Trump pundit and veteran Republican operative Bill Kristol confirmed to CNBC in a few brief text messages that he has spoken to Scaramucci since the SkyBridge Capital founder had a public falling out with Trump this summer. Asked whether he has spoken to Scaramucci about trying to find another presidential candidate to replace Trump on the top of the GOP ticket next year, Kristol said: “Yup.”

But Kristol, who has been critical of Scaramucci in the past, wouldn’t go much further than that when describing his interactions with the former Trump surrogate.

Couple of losers.

If you took a time machine back 15 years, Freepers loved Kristol, Bush and their Iraq War. Anybody who took exception risked getting bounced.

Trump did the Republican Party a favor by delivering Republican rank and file their trance like Cult of Bushism

Kristol is one of the few remaining devotees of that cult, still drunk on the kool aid. That’s why he hates Trump so much

As Tucker’s book documents, Kristol was not opposed toTrump as a candidate until Trump made clear that he opposed the Iraq War and that Bush committed a historic blunder by invading Iraq

If you scratch a never trumpet you ALWAYS find somebody who still thinks the Iraq War was a great idea, and hates Trump for being the first GOP candidate to say otherwise. Trump broke the spell, allowing Republicans to say out loud what they really thought about the Iraq war. The never trumpets hate Trump for that

I would not trust either of these 2 turncoats to keep the water tanks filled up for my horses-—and it is over 100 degrees & they are drinking plenty of water.

TURNCOATS is what both of them are to the American voter...regardless of party affilliation.

They’re going to do that, huh?

On his Twitter his has a poll that asks, “Do you think POTUS knows who Taft was?” That’s their scenario, except Taft was on the ticket. Who is Roosevelt in their plan?

I think I speak for myself as well as millions of others who will be staying at home rather than vote for their candidate. Of course, I don’t expect the plan of these two flyspecks to come to fruition.

LBJ made lots of money for his military industrial complex buddies—the Vietnam War proceeded according to plan.

What stopped them in their tracks was when elected Republicans were told, IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS, that if Trump wasn’t on the ticket, the base, THE ENTIRE BASE, was simply going to stay home...and hence cost them their seats.

And if you want to know what the base BASE looks like, just look at the vote percentages for Ross Perot in 1992.

And those numbers were AFTER election manipulation by the Media and the Uniparty, which President Trump has revealed to be a real "thing".

They have nothing to offer him he hasn’t already got, and can’t take that away from him.

They THINK they can - but they don't understand the danger of a fatal Swamp epidemic of Sudden Hemp Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder [SHOPD]...

It might be a good pay per view fundraiser to let any one of them, or all of them debate President Trump. Because when he was just candidate Trump he mopped the floor with Jeb, Kasich, and even the experienced debaters like Cruz and Christie.

I'd pay money to watch President Trump shred Romney or any other Republican foolish enough to run against him.
