An investigation into the websites backing the so-called Renegade Party confirms that neoconservative columnist Bill Kristol has been plotting an anti-Trump political party since before a single vote was cast.
Kristols Renegade Party was set up on January 10th nearly a month before the Iowa Caucus.
The move suggests that Kristol (or at least those close to him) had been planning an independent bid all along.

it wouldn’t be the “new” House which would decide the presidency, it would be the current House which serves until Jan. 2017
the Electoral College meets in early Dec.
The House would have until Inauguration Day, Jan. 20 2017 to settle on a President, or else the following procedure takes place:

How about the NeoCon party, with Bill Kristol, George Will, David French, Eric Erickson, Glen Beck, Leon Wolf, Josha Goldberg, Mitt and Ben
My gosh, Bill Kristol? Does this dude have any following at all? All I can see is that he has a big mouth.
Tea Party “Indians”....
I bet those who belong to his “party” number in the tens. What a complete moron and closet LIB.
I never cared for Kristol faux conservative. Always thought him as a weasley, wimpy lite mode talking head. Having Trump on the scene musta somehow crimped his cash flow or it will.
Cotton is too smart to entertain this in 2016.
The RINOs in Washington aren’t far enough to the left for Kristol.
But didn’t Cotton just yesterday say he wouldn’t rule out serving as Trump’s running mate? Is he trying to blackmail himself onto the Trump ticket, or what?
I don't see the House jumping on bandwagon to elect Trump. The most likely scenario IMO would for the House to remain basically deadlocked until next term.
and
“If the House of Representatives fails to elect a President by Inauguration Day, the Vice-President Elect serves as acting President until the deadlock is resolved in the House.”
Just sayin...
I bet those who belong to his party number in the tens. What a complete moron and closet LIB.
It is a free country and Kristol can plan anything he wants to plan. But with a following of several tens, what would it matter?
If Cotton is smart, and a patriot, he will get a new set of political friends. He was always careful when he spoke to Hugh Hewitt and you can’t tell if it’s because he’s not fully on board with the GOPe or if he’s just canny enough to keep that fact to himself. Either way his support from the Salem Radio faction is not encouraging.
Call it the PP short for the Pusillanimous Party. It fits perfectly....
Cotton has apparently been out stumping with Juan. He has also not poked his head up much to cause Ditch to wack him back down.
@BillKristol Will never understand who could listen and follow a guy who looks like no makeup Joker
An outsider wins the GOP nominations so butt hurt establishment insiders create another party named “Renegade” in order to run an establishment stooge.
What in the hell is wrong with this world?
I liked Kistol in the Princess Bride, but a small cameo is all I can take.
You renegade, who had it made, retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray, this’ll be the end today of the wanted man
