Looks like Trump may have gotten the best primary opponent he could have asked for.

Some one should flick their Bic next to Willie “Whiskey” Weld, but outside the main part of the fireball. But then when he became a Libertarian to run with Johnson, me may have switched from whiskey to weed.

How could a crony corporatist, social leftist, fake libertarian fail to win the nomination?

rinos are lunatics just as LIBs. However, they must be crushed to dust (legally, of course).

He could do us a favor and choose Ben Shapiro or Liddle Marco as his running mate.

It will be a great debate if we can all stop laughing long enough to watch.

When he officially switched to the Libertarian Party in 2016, Weld said he felt "free."
So, he's a pro-abortion, open-borders, anti-white racist, and Demwit in all but name? What's his FR nick?

I think Ben has crossed over. Not sure about Marco.

Having an opponent means the media will be forced to cover Trump during the primaries. Otherwise every story would be about validating the Democrat circus tent.

That LBJ, Carter, and Bush had primary challengers were symptoms of the problems they faced getting re-elected. LBJ had much of the Democrat base mad at him over the Vietnam War, and Carter was obviously incompetent. Bush's biggest problem, apart from breaking his "read my lips" promise, was Perot. Without Perot in the race he might have won.

Weld thinks Trump's rhetoric is like Germany in 1938? I don't think there were any Jews trying to sneak into Germany illegally in 1938. Trump isn't preventing anyone from leaving the country.

Not a lot of name recognition going on there.

“”I can hear the glass crunching on Kristallnacht in the ghettos of Warsaw and Vienna,” Weld said of Trump’s immigration rhetoric.””

He apparently doesn’t know much about history!!

I hear the sound of demagogic bull Scheiß.

I remember when conservatives surrounded Weld at the Bush Republican National Convention calling out "Libertine, libertine!".
