Dozens of former Republican officials, who view the party as unwilling to stand up to former President Donald Trump and his attempts to undermine U.S. democracy, are in talks to form a center-right breakaway party, four people involved in the discussions told Reuters.

The early stage discussions include former elected Republicans, former officials in the Republican administrations of Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush and Trump, ex-Republican ambassadors and Republican strategists, the people involved say.

More than 120 of them held a Zoom call last Friday to discuss the breakaway group, which would run on a platform of “principled conservatism,” including adherence to the Constitution and the rule of law - ideas those involved say have been trashed by Trump.

What’s the over-under on the number of pedophiles? Of 120 people, I’m betting 28 join the group, including 13 pedophiles, 8 Chinese-communist agents, 5 shills for goverment-regulation-addicted industries, 1 vacuous and left-leaning attention whore who’s mad he lost a primary for representative that a GHWB recruiter told him he’d be a shoe-in for, and here’s a big overlap: 22 consultants who’ve never actually won a race but usually managed to bilk the party machine for several hundred thousand dollars per congressional race and each once earned eight figures for Mitt Romney or Bob Dole.
