Former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld announced Monday he is officially entering the race for president, becoming the first Republican to challenge President Donald Trump in the 2020 race.

"Ours is a nation built on courage, resilience, and independence. In these times of great political strife, when both major parties are entrenched in their 'win at all cost' battles, the voices of the American people are being ignored and our nation is suffering," Weld, who had previously formed an exploratory committee, said in a statement.

"It is time for patriotic men and women across our great nation to stand and plant a flag. It is time to return to the principles of Lincoln -- equality, dignity, and opportunity for all.

I think that yellow hair dye is eating away his brain matter.

Give it up Bill. At 73, no one is going to think you're a mop-headed surfer boy.

Don’t get too complicit.

A Republican might win over Trump but only with the help of leftist because I doubt that the leftist would care. They can run the Republican Party in office as well as they do when they are in power, but this way the Republicans can look like the bad guys and get blamed for everything

Is that clear as mud?

And here comes Ross Perot version 2 to the rescue. Weld will get his name out there, Trump will pound him into tomorrow and Weld will change over to an independent. It’s the last card in the deep states deck.

At near full employment, including for all minorities usually left behind, real wages rising, with the stock market bullish and the possibility of peace with the Norks, ISIS a bloody leftover stain like a squished cockroach, what exactly is Weld talking about? Does he know? Tweeting?

The media and their party, the Democratic Party, will be telling stories about how they’re all for Weld and how they feel that he’s the best candidate out of both the Dems and Repubs.

The Drive-By's McCain strategy.

Bill, if you by some miracle beat Trump out for the nomination I would vote for Howard Shultz in the general election.
