On Monday, Weekly Standard editor-in-chief Bill Kristol tweeted out what the rest of the Republican establishment is thinking: better Hillary than Donald. Here’s the tweet:
Crowd-sourcing: Name of the new party we’ll have to start if Trump wins the GOP nomination? Suggestions welcome at editor@weeklystandard.com

Kristol isn’t alone. As I wrote at Daily Wire today, Politico’s Jeff Greenfield says, “If the operatives I talked with are right, Trump running as a Republican could well face a third-party run – from the Republicans themselves.†That follows last Thursday’s Politico column from former New Jersey governor Christine Todd Whitman, who compared Trump to Hitler and called him “evil,†and last Wednesday’s Politico column reporting that Jeb Bush’s aides “began looking into the possibility of making a clear break with Trump – potentially with the candidate stating that, if Trump were the nominee, Bush would not support him.â€

Above, somebody wrote about the Sore-Loserman Party.
But, actually, I can actually see Lieberman (a very, very powerful democrat VP candidate) actually supporting either Cruz or Trump, actually becoming a “Republican” in office RATHHER than remaining independent or a socialist-democrat.
On the other hand, YES.
Would these go third party?
Bush? Maybe. He would just sit out the election, not vote.
McConnell? Yes.
Ryan? Maybe.
Boehner? Yes.
Medved? Yes.
Kristol? Yes.
Rowe? Yes. He'd run their campaign!
McCain? Yes.
Graham? Yes. If not democrat to get a better chairmanship.
Dole? Yes.
Romney? Probably not.
Reise Philbin (RNC Chair)? Probably be chosen 3rd chairman himself!
Who else?
...back where Kristol and his cronies belong.
“No, please, please, don’t go away mad! Just go away!”
The only way I can see to change Washington is to move the government out. Make these elected "officials" work from offices in their respective districts. Make them work in glass offices on the ground floor.
Emails, letters and phone calls are a lot easier to ignore than a hundred or more enraged citizens with torches and pitchforks, all staring in your window. They might just remember who sent them and why,
The internet is a wonderful thing. Billions of dollars in business are successfully completed every day.
Just think of the money saved by not paying for travel. Think how much more difficult it would be for lobbyists to influence OUR employees. No Washington parties where money and promises flow like water.
Perhaps they could be persuaded to meet with their employers and listen to what they had to say. Less arm twisting, etc...
THINK ABOUT IT!!
There will be good and bad things that President Trump does, get used to it darling.
....”There will be good and bad things that President Trump does”.....
His supporters need to be prepare to be “flexible”.....when it doesn’t go as they hope. Count on it.
Really. Why start a new party? The GOPe fits in real fine with the democrat agenda.
Obama has gotten more out of them than they got from a dem House and Senate.
I think Trump will deliver a wall and if he only does that one thing I will be happy. But even if he accomplishes nothing, Trump has destroyed the PC hell we all lived in for decades! Celebrate the man he has already done more for the country than all the RINOS put together and he is not even President yet.
Has he ever repudiated his father's collegiate admiration of Leon Trotsky, the butcher of the Bolshevik Revolution?
In my estimation, he has never seen the absurdity of the Neocon Phenomenon,which his father defines. If that is correct, his departure might be a net gain for the Republican Party. It will help clarify issues.
Great, is this the beginning of the take over of the Republican party by Conservatives? This is what the Republican party has been needing. The Gopeers can become democrats and or form a turd party. I hope this rapidly spreads to Mississippi and haley barbour and his minions can join with kristol. We could end up with a Conservative Republican party and the term Conservative would be more than a meaningless, obligatory campaign slogan.
Nevertheless, I can't wait to see Bill Kristol's Neoconservative third party. Ideologically, the candidate best aligned with Kristol is probably Lindsey Graham, who polled at zero in most surveys. I'm sure Linda will make a similar splash in the general election.
So, then there’ll actually be 2 parties!
Should have mentioned that FOX NEWS certainly doesn't use the service of Bill Kristol lately, but they sure do ROVE, and he is another one FOX NEWS needs to release to the Wild..He is such a Trump hater that he causes me to mute my TV.
When will Fox wake up? ROVE is so yesterday...
NeoWhigs?
Transrepublicans!
In fiction, you have Robin Hood, William Tell, or Katniss Everdeen fighting for the underdog. In history, massive unrest against an unjust ruling class often leads to the likes of Cromwell, Robespierre, or Lenin.
And here I thought WE were the ones who would have to start a new party. But if the RINOS want to do our work for us ...
Hey, Bill Bennett, let’s hear your spiel about Loyalty Oaths again.
