BILL KRISTOL CONSIDERING RUN FOR PRESIDENT IN 2020
Daily Caller ^ | 30 Jul 2018 | Peter Hasson

Bill Kristol, the former editor-in-chief of The Weekly Standard, is considering challenging President Donald Trump in the 2020 Republican primary.

Kristol, who is consistently one of the most vocal anti-Trump Republicans, has been considering a run for months, a source familiar with Kristol’s thinking told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Kristol, who remains an editor-at-large for the Standard, said he has no plans to run but declined to rule it out when asked by TheDCNF.

“No plans to run. But I’m randomly in Boston today, and happen to have had lunch with someone who does a lot of work in New Hampshire,” Kristol wrote in an email. “As he’d say, ‘Ya nevah know.'”

The political strategy genius behind the campaign of Evan McMullin. Perhaps Jonah Goldberg can be his running mate. They can run on a platform of more wars and more 80s sitcom allusions.

They can include in their platform, hating the man who completely turned the country around and every single way possible at record speed, along with eliminating ISIS, and putting the world on the right track. That should at least get them some dem votes - that’s who they’re aligned with.

Oh dear. He has too much ink published to run for office. Also a poor choice for any conservative who has buyers remorse in regards to Shrub.

He should run as a democrat, although he’s extremely left of JF Kennedy.

I’d love to see a Trump/Krystol debate. Or more accurately, Trump schlonging Kystol until he cries on national television.

These never Trump “conservatives” like Kristol and Rove are so out of touch. They seem to have no inkling that 95% of real conservatives detest them.

I wish that I had all the money people waste on campaigns.

Soros has lost so often his butt is sore, and I would be a millionaire.
