Key players in GOPs anti-Trump movement are preparing to launch an independent presidential campaign for Evan McMullin a CIA veteran and the chief policy director of the House Republican conference sources close to the effort told BuzzFeed News. Veteran Republican strategist Rick Wilson, a Florida-based media consultant and outspoken Trump critic, is expected to be involved in McMullins campaign. Sources said Wilson was in Washington on Sunday meeting with members of McMullins prospective campaign which includes some who were involved in a group called Better for America, which has been pushing an independent presidential bid.

If? I just got my new voter ID because of change of address and it says previously republican. Now Conservative.
As I asked in a previous thread: Why are they desperate? Hillary is comfortably ahead in all the major polls. Or don’t they trust the polls??
What a joke. What hollow desperation. They should all go back under the rock they crawled out from. Losers big-time.
Personally I think we collectively need to do everything possible to get Trump elected. Simultaneously we should be about deconstructing (destroying if necessary) the Republican Party.
We have to win, and then we have to force the party elites and weasels out in the open and hunt them down.
Of course. But I just see it as another sign of the establishment’s (R and D) panic.
I think the very support of Trump, from the beginning, means you or anyone else was done with the Republican Party. Trump is a protest against them.
Who?
Funded by Soros to cut the vote and get Hillary in White House, thats my guess. Pull a “Ross Perot” and keep Progressives in power.
Can the come up with a more obscure candidate than that? Shows how desperate they are.
follow the money,
these are all political consultants and pay for play talking media heads.
This is a useful idiot being paid to be a “me too” candidate.
Not even jeb bush is stupid enough to do this.
This is a vote splitter candidate who can’t even get on the ballot in all states.
“In other news, Todd Schmidt, a conservative from Michigan has announced his campaign for President, as has George Anderson from Arkansas. He joins Bill Jones from New Jersey, and Michael Smith from California. All are conservatives and join the extremely crowded field which also includes perennial joke candidate, Donald Trump, from New York.”
His Wiki page shows him to have several strikes against him regarding immigration and insider-ness.
From his Wiki page: "After graduating from BYU in 2001, McMullin worked as a Volunteer Refugee Resettlement Officer for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees."
And
"In 2011, McMullin transitioned to the investment banking sector at Goldman Sachs in the San Francisco Bay Area, raising capital, as well as working on mergers and acquisitions across several industries, including technology, energy, consumer goods, biotech, industrials and real estate."
And
In 2013, McMullin became a senior adviser on national security issues for the House Committee on Foreign Affairs for the 113th Congress.
I can’t even post what I think needs to be done to these people.
Ugly
see my (perhaps lame) attempt at humor along these lines in post 32.....
Mike Murphy gets a big slice of every dollar he raises for a candidate.
He senses that there is still plenty of anti-Trump passion out there and that translates into fund raising and that translates into Murphy's cut.
Murphy made millions on Jeb, if he can make a few more, what the heck (he thinks).
If Hillary is elected, the “next election” won’t matter. The courts will have already been stacked with her Marxist nominees (she’d likely have the Senate, too).
Who?
Never heard of him
