Top McMaster Ally Bill Kristol Plotting to Primary, Oust Trump: Must ‘Take One Shot’
Breitbart ^ | 08/05/17 | Tony Lee

Posted on 08/06/2017 12:06:29 PM PDT by Enlightened1

Bill Kristol, a prominent “Never Trumper” and one of national security adviser H.R. McMaster’s fiercest defenders and allies, is reportedly scheming to primary or oust President Donald Trump so Republicans do not renominate him in 2020.

According to a New York Times report, Kristol “said he had begun informal conversations about creating a ‘Committee Not to Renominate the President.'”

“We need to take one shot at liberating the Republican Party from Trump, and conservatism from Trumpism,” Kristol told the liberal Times reporters.

On Twitter, Kristol, the limelight-seeking saboteur, seemed proud that he was again quoted in a legacy media paper, tweeting out the article and saying the “task in 2020” is to oust Trump. He even suggested Never Trumpers should rebrand themselves as “liberals.”

Seeing what little relevance he had was slipping away during the 2016 election cycle, Kristol spent most of the cycle trying to undermine Trump and get Hillary Clinton elected. He attempted to draft National Review’s David French to be his “Never Trump” candidate. Like a failed Triple-A manager desperately trying to find even a high school team to allow him to coach, Kristol then worked with Rick “Put a Bullet in Trump” Wilson to draft an even more uninspiring and milquetoast candidate in Evan McMullin.

McMullin, aided by supposedly the smartest tacticians and pundits in the world who think they are oh-so-brilliant every day on Twitter, ran an embarrassing campaign that did not even resonate with voters in Utah. As of May of 2017, McMullin’s failed campaign that was used as a vehicle for operatives to get paychecks and “Never Trump” pundits to get quoted in legacy media outlets and make television appearances, was nearly a whopping $700,000 in debt to the career political professionals whom Trump’s success as a candidate threatened to put of business...

Kristol is no conservative. He should rebrand as Konservative.

How is that conservatism holding up Billy-Boy. Seems like it - your so-called conservatism, not Russell Kirk conservatism - met Trump face to face and wilted like lettuce on a hot stove.

And GOP is liberated from Trump as they demonstrate on a daily basis. It's just not sitting too well with the tax-paying voters who are sick of your protestations of ideological purity so long as the sewer called a swamp can continue to fester along.

Would be fun to see them drag out low-energy Jebbie, or the hunchback from Ohio again. They’d be done early.

I think we figured out a few years ago that Kristol is one of the bad guys.

I prefer to call Krisol a Cuckservative of the McCain type.

In reality he is a Leftist Rat that pretends to be a conservative.

Some of Bill Kristol tweets:


“The task in 2020: “Liberating the Republican Party from Trump, and conservatism from Trumpism.”https://t.co/TTu500AqB5

— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) August 5, 2017


“Conservatives could “rebrand” as liberals. Seriously. We’re for liberal democracy, liberal world order, liberal economy, liberal education. https://t.co/MvSbZCfLEZ

— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) August 5, 2017


” To all Republican candidates: Throw Trump under the bus. It would be good for the party and country. And it couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. “

I had no idea that Kristol’s mother, historian Gertrude Himmelfarb, is still alive. She’s 95.

Who the hell cares?

I get why the media writes about Kristol, they will anyone saying anything negative about President Trump, what I don't understand is why anyone here still cares one iota what this cretin has to say? David French, Egg McMuffin... we saw the kind of political losers Kristol recruits.

With luck he will destroy the old R party and earn himself a dirt nap in the process.
