This week we asked ABC News contributor and Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol five questions about Donald Trump, the GOP's current frontrunner for the nomination for president, and the broader 2016 race for the White House. Kristol will appear on the "This Week" roundtable Sunday.
1] You sent a tweet suggesting a new party would have to be started if Donald Trump wins the GOP nomination. Were you serious? Would you leave the Republican party if he does win the nomination?
KRISTOL: I was semi-serious. I don't think Trump will be the nominee, so I don't expect it to be an issue. But since I don't think I could support Trump, and I'd like to have someone to vote for, if Trump were to be the nominee, I'd be open to a new party, probably for 2016 only -- but you never know.

I have a few choice words for Bill Kristol, but will refrain.
While a massive Cruz win can change the whole dynamic, I would think the pundit blowhards would stop predicting the Trump demise.
Or not. Kristol and his buds haven’t been right about Trump in most cases.
Bill Krystol is full of baloney.
I think he is working for (what’s his name again).
Busch? Buch? Bosh?
Wish Billy K would disappear
Yeah, right. Santorum won Iowa in 2012 and Huckabee in 2008. NH is the first real test.
Neocon Bill Kristol is freaking out.

Trump's got a rich backer who can carry him forever -- like Rupert carries Billy Kristol.
The guy's name escapes me but he's got billions.
The Boch?
Bill Kristol and Dick Morris are always the top 2 winners annually in the “oops,never mind” contest among prognosticators of political contests.
A Union General talking about General Joe Hooker after he got his ass kicked in the Wilderness, “I never saw a better poker player than Joe Hooker until the time came to raise a thousand.”
I can’t wait til Trump wipes the smirk off of this pompous a$$’ face, permanently.
Bill, take off the R jersey already, we can see the big red D underneath.
A failure to win 100 % in Iowa will not stop Trump—even a loss in New Hamshire will not end him. I predict Cruz will win Iowa—with Trump second. I believe Christie will win New Hapshire with Trump a close second. Then all the others will go Trump. The south will go Trump—even Texas. It will be over by May 1st. The GOP may mount a 3rd Party to end Trump (Who? Bush? Mittens?)
Kristol who?
He hasn’t picked the winner of any race, ever, has he?
And to think that this individual was the go-to for political insight. In the dead of night, the burglar made was thought to be a big heist at the time. Notice that with each day intelligence fades but the waist line increases?
Bill kristol’s father was respectable.
inferring The Bosche I imagine.
