No, even though the votes from last week arent even all counted yet, it is, of course, time to move on to the next election. And while the discussion so far has focused on which Democrats are running and who among them is best positioned to defeat President Trump, Ive got the perfect candidate to dethrone the Donald.
Its Mitt Romney.
Or maybe Jeff Flake. Ben Sasse? Sure, whatever. Any of them will do.
Because Im not suggesting that any of these vocal Trump critics from within the presidents own party including Massachusetts re-gift to Utah run as a Democrat. I dont even want them to take on the president in a primary. We already saw how that ends.
Instead, Im asking only that one of these allegedly responsible Republicans each of whom has unleashed hell upon Trump in the form of a sternly worded speech/tweet/press release/raised eyebrow run as a third-party candidate. Its time for one of these supposed independent thinkers who just cant abide Trumps dangerous rhetoric to put their considerable monies where their mouths are.
Romney has referred to the president a con man and a fraud. Flake, an outgoing senator from Arizona, has decried the coarseness of our leadership. And Sasse, a Republican senator from Nebraska, has said he thinks about leaving the party every day because of Trump.
That all sounds great, guys, truly. But if you want to earn brownie points for standing up to Trump, youre going to have to do more than talk and tweet about it.
Youre going to have to Nader the guy.

Can anyone give me a synopsis? I'd appreciate it. I'm not interesting in investing time to figure out what any of this means.
Absolute Nonsense.
Just Forget Mitt.
Ever since Ross Perot gave us the Clinton crime syndicate, I have a very loathsome heart for 3rd parties.
I will freely admit I couldn’t make sense of it.
I can see that.
Mitt is the Corvair of Pubby candidates - unsafe at any speed!
Booh hoo..
“Take down Trump”
Why? The nation is firing on all cylinders..it would take a very petty person to try to take down Trump just because?... another one could do better?
HAHAHAHA...YEAH, RIGHT
If Mitt ever tries to pull anything like that, he’ll get plenty of dead fish delivered to his front porch.
The author is barely known and writes few articles of interest....he likes to quack about ‘civility’ yet here he is ‘quacking’ about Trump..I’ll pass.
They’re already worried, and desperate.
Levin is no Mitt fan. He supported Bachmann and Santorum over him in 2012 primaries.
Bill Kristol has not given up the fight either.
He is certain there is a formula;’Just this one weird trick’ will make Donald Trump quit office within four to six weeks!’
Still working on finding that ‘one weird trick’, right Bill?.
By the by, whatever happened to “Egg-McMuffin”?
At least the media has dropped all pretense of being fair and unbiased.
Now they are open about being activists and the DNC propaganda arm.
We here on FR have known this for decades but the rest of the country may be just catching on.
The Dems are so far left, any middle of the road loser like the ones mentioned would siphon off Dem votes at a 3:1 rate to Republicans.
Especially if they have a ticket of Shartacus and Willie Brown’s holster.
I’m hoping Ronna Romney McDaniel will keep her uncle in check.
If anything ever required a barf alert it’s this.
