Per Twitter
"Just a heads up over this holiday weekend: There will be an independent candidate--an impressive one, with a strong team and a real chance."
-Bill Kristol
Who is it, Mittens?
This absolutely disgusts me. This fool is going to cost us the election because he and some bitter Cruz supporters didn't get their way. He knows it will split the vote and we won't win. A few things:
1)He wants to cause enough of a vote split where no candidate has the 270. Ok. Let's say he does that. He will literally be usurping the will of all the people who voted for Trump in the primaries and general (which will be way more than his guy).
2)That assumes his candidate will even win one state. I would venture to guess his candidate won't win a single state but will divide the votes enough to help Hillary.
3)Maybe he wants Hillary. I had a Cruz supporter tell me on Twitter he'd rather 4 years of Hillary (he says it will only be 4 years) and 2 Supreme Court picks from her (he insists it will only be 2) so he can get a conservative like Cruz in 4 years.
Somewhere Hillary is cackling at the stupid party and "principled" conservatives who are willing to torpedo Trump to get all or nothing.
Let's hope either Bill is bluffing or this fails. Even Trump the other day seemed to concede it would give Hillary the election.
It takes a special kind of elitist attitude to usurp the voters of your own party and tell them you know better.
Yes Texas Deadline passed. needs to usurp existing party
I never said Cruz is in on this. I said some of his supporters on Twitter are.
I am dying of curiosity, who is the “independent” savior.
>>We should all remember what Kristol tried to do here, even when he fails.
I agree. No matter what happens now, we need to shun this Globalist Progressive POS.
It doesn’t matter if Cruz is in on this particular antic, he himself tried to hose the process knowing he couldn’t win.
Don’t give these people respect they don’t deserve, they’re killing our country.
Who is Bill Kristol working for?
China?
Need a team of private investigators on Kristol’s activities past and present.
Bill Kristol is Judge Smails and Romney is Dr. Beeper
They could be Cruz supporters, Russian trolls or who-knows-what.
Great idea! Why is this guy so anxious to get Hillary in? These damn journalists get a free pass when it comes to their associations, time to change that.

Honey, you’re delusional. I sympathize with your dissatisfaction with this year’s choices, but get a grip. Nothing that happens will really affect your lifestyle. Go have a nice time with your great wealth. I hear Fiji is nice for the very rich.
He’s already not living up to his pledge, but she said a Cruz supporter, not Cruz.
There is only one reason for these phony “conservatives” not to support Trump, that he is a nationalist, not a globalist. Open borders, amnesty and supporting transnational corporations over the well being of American citizens. That means more to them than the conservative issues they pretend to care about. I’m glad Krystol and his ilk have exposed themselves. Hopefully it will be the end of their pathetic careers.
No problem with that. He’s dead to me.
Are there any indications that another candidate is registering to run in any of the states that aren’t past the deadline?
A real chance to destroy our country.
Joker face needs to take a hike already.
I think Kristol is depending on failure’s like Gary Johnson and Bill Weld to be his dream team. Neither one define the Libertarian Party values and tenets.
The party barely polls 1% nation wide, 2012 was the best year they ever had, they got 1.2 million votes. Realistically they might poll more this year, but not much.
So if this is Bill Kristol’s dream ticket, it is lacking.
