Appearing on Glenn Beck’s radio show on Wednesday, Never Trump leader Erick Erickson mused on yet another scheme to foist Mitt Romney on the American electorate this year.
If one can wade through Glenn Beck and Erick Erickson discussing wild-eyed conspiracy theories involving GOP nominee Donald Trump and Russia and their claims that they are among the few remaining Americans who still believe in the Constitution, you will hear some serious crazy as Beck, his co-hosts, and Erickson elaborate on a strategy to derail the GOP nominee and throw the November Presidential election to the House of Representatives to decide.
The theory, as explained by Beck’s co-host Stu Burguiere, is to run a “conservative” candidate in two to three deep red states “where Hillary Clinton has no chance of winning,” so that Trump can’t get to the 270 electoral vote threshold needed to win, thereby throwing the election to the House of Representatives, assuming that Hillary doesn’t win outright.
Their dream “conservative” candidate seems to be Mitt Romney — but only because “Paul Ryan is the Speaker of the House,” and therefore unavailable. They never do get around to accounting for the widespread unpopularity of both these men across the GOP base. But then their plan isn’t genuinely rooted in democracy anyway.

If there are more than a handful of people out there who still think Glen Beck is sane, I’d be shocked.
“Glenn Beck, Erick Erickson Plot to Subvert the Will of the People to Elect Romney”
aaahhhhhaahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahha, OMG, hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha....please stop, you’re kill’n me.
LOL!
Actually, these fat-arsed lollipoppers may have hit upon the way to stop Trump and subvert the will of the people. Heaven help them if they succeed.
Glenn Beck is a mentally ill nonentity and I honestly don’t give a bleep what he is doing. If there is anyone out there that cares for the man, please try to get him some professional help.
If that’s their master plan, we have nothing to worry about.
The only problem with that scenario is that the voters in those two or three deep red states figure Trump is more of a conservative than Romney.
Yeah, because Mitt Romney is so much more conservative than Donald Trump.
Glenn. Buddy. Let it go.
His morning spot here, replaced by Laura Ingraham. Great move.
“Your Healthy Radio Addiction.”
Hello, you’re on the air.
Romney prefers Obama and Hillary to Trump. And these “conservatives” are scheming to get him on the ballot? Sorry, these buffoons have ZERO conservative moral authority in my book now.
These clowns have no influence except with the beltway idiots. Its no longer about conservatism vs liberalism its about nationalism vs globalism
we wont have a country thats how bad its getting.Let them fight their old war they are irrelevant
Maybe Hillary has bought off these people....or maybe Hillary is blackmailing them.
That's a huge point I've been making with friends who are not thrilled with Trump. I saw, to honest, I see more to be excited about here than either of the last two. Then, as a second point, I bring up all the liberal things Romney did in MA and couldn't even run for re-election. He thrust Obamacare and gay marriage on the country. Not much to be excited about there.
I’m shocked Lyin’ Canuck Ted wasn’t a part of that intellectual discussion.
He flames out against the one man who has stood into the breach, caused by the Politically Correct bullies; while basically acting as a lickspittle for the return of those Politically Correct bullies to domination of the Republican Party.
I am not suggesting that Romney has become insane; simply, that he has either become cowed into an obsession by his personal fear of those bullies, or has become infuriated by his own inadequacy in comparison to Donald Trump.
That said, Romney has still not fallen to the abject level of babbling demonstrated by Glen Beck or Erickson.
I’m tired of the “2016 is the worst election ever” meme. 2012 with Romney and the kenyan was much worse.
I’m glad I lopped Glenn Beck off my bank account and dumped Glenn Beck TV four years ago.
