GOP(e)’s ideas to Stop Trump! Part 132

Good day all. If it’s a day ending n a “Y”, then there is yet another story about the Establishment Republicans planning on stopping Donald Trump’s run for the White House.

The sour grapes of the GOP(e) regarding the complete rejection of their preferred candidates, (Spineless, squishy bowls of Jello), and the winning of the nomination by Donald Trump continues unabated. The usual idiots suspects are actively planning an independent run by someone they consider to be a “True Conservative.” One problem they’re having is finding someone politically suicidal enough to run under their flag. Here are some of the details on how the GOP(e) is trying to stop Trump, no matter the costs from the Washington Post:

A band of exasperated Republicans — including 2012 presidential nominee Mitt Romney, a handful of veteran consultants and members of the conservative intelligentsia — is actively plotting to draft an independent presidential candidate who could keep Donald Trump from the White House.

These GOP figures are commissioning private polling, lining up major funding sources and courting potential contenders, according to interviews with more than a dozen Republicans involved in the discussions. The effort has been sporadic all spring but has intensified significantly in the 10 days since Trump effectively locked up the Republican nomination.

Those involved concede that an independent campaign at this late stage is probably futile, and they think they have only a couple of weeks to launch a credible bid.

A “credible bid?” Really? On what planet? It certainly isn’t Earth, that’s for sure.

But these Republicans — including commentators William Kristol and Erick Erickson and strategists Mike Murphy, Stuart Stevens and Rick Wilson — are so repulsed by the prospect of Trump as commander in chief that they are desperate to take action.

My suggestion on the actions they might consider would be to try gargling with a shotgun. Now, who are these mental midgets trying to con into running as an independent?

Their top recruiting prospects are freshman Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), a conservative who has become one of Trump’s sharpest critics.

And there is a slight problem with that plan. Ben Sasse was just reprimanded by the Nebraska Republican party at their state convention. Here’s a few amusing details from Newsmax:

Nebraska Republicans approved a resolution at its state convention Saturday to reprimand freshman Sen. Ben Sasse for his attacks on presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump. The resolution was introduced by Sam Fischer, a top Cornhusker State GOP operative who is the nephew of Sen. Deb Fischer, The Gateway Pundit reports. The convention was held in Omaha.

Oh I’m sure, since Ben Sasse is so popular there, that it was a very close vote too.

The move was approved 400-8.

So, who else to the RINO’s have in mind for this Kamikaze run?

Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who withdrew from the Republican presidential race May 4.

Please! The Hunchback of Columbus managed to win just one state, Ohio, where he happens to be governor. Can’t they do better than him? Well, it does look like they tried.

Earlier prospects included former senator Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) and retired Marine Corps Gen. James N. Mattis. Former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice and retired Army Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal have been bandied about as potentially potent political outsiders.

Let’s see. Mattis has rejected running under the Idiot banner which makes sense since he isn’t an idiot. Coburn has basically retired and has no apparent interest in running for other offices. McChrystal? Yeah, he was fired by Obama for shooting his mouth off in the wrong place. As for Conoleezza Rice? First, she’s a Bushie. She was involved in the decision to invade Iraq. Second, she doesn’t have any interest in running for office. Third, she would rather be the Commissioner of the National Football League. (Personally, I think she would do a much better job than the current moron)

The recruiters also delved into the world of reality television for someone who might out-Trump Trump: Mark Cuban, the brash billionaire businessman and owner of the Dallas Mavericks basketball team.

And his answer?

“I don’t see it happening,” Cuban wrote in an email.

Again and again, though, these anti-Trump Republicans have heard the same tepid response: Thanks, but no thanks.

You would think these clown would take the hint, but that would require something that has been seriously lacking among the so called “Conservative Intelligentsia.” That would be brains.

Draft promoters have been telling potential candidates that 2016 already has proved to be an unpredictable cycle and that anything could happen, such as Trump’s candidacy shriveling under the expected Democratic advertising assault. What’s more, they tell them, you would have no bigger platform to promote your ideas than in a three-way general election that would attract global attention.

Of course, there is a small problem. The RINO’s running an independent candidate won’t win, but they will hand the White House to Hillary Clinton. This is one reason they’re having trouble finding anyone stupid enough to take them up on their offer.

“The career of the individual would come to an end, and he would have a difficult spot in history for being responsible for putting Hillary Clinton in the White House,” said Patrick J. Buchanan, a conservative who unsuccessfully ran for president in 2000 on the Reform Party ticket.

I stopped paying attention to Buchanan decades ago when he joined the Democrats in blaming all problems in the middle east on the existence of Israel. He ran under the Reform banner because he had no political future in any case. He isn’t alone in this. Some of the Never Trumpers are beginning to scale back a bit.

Some anti-Trump Republicans are downsizing their ambitions to a more focused, state-specific effort. Murphy, who ran a super PAC for former Florida governor Jeb Bush in his failed 2016 bid, is pushing one such proposal. Murphy envisions an independent candidate on what he termed “an honorable mission” in Colorado, New Hampshire and Ohio — three battleground states with relatively lax ballot-access rules.

“Running an anti-Trump protest candidate in a handful of swing states really appeals to me,” Murphy said. “You could deny Trump the presidency and perhaps help important Senate and other down-ballot races by giving another choice to Republican voters who abhor Hillary Clinton and can’t cross the moral line to vote for Trump.”

And there you have it. These people, led by Mittens Romney and William Kristol, (Publisher of the Weakly Standard), are so delusional in their hate for Donald Trump that they have no problem with Hillary Clinton being president. And if they think that they could protect the down ticket seats doing this? Not a chance. It would probably mean flipping the senate back to the Democrats and a bloodbath in the house.

If the actions of these RINO’s were to give the presidency to Clinton, the best they could hope for would be expulsion from the Republican party. More than likely, these elitist scum would probably end up being dragged out of their limousines and invited to be the guests of honor at a necktie party.

Since Ronald Reagan left offices, these phony conservatives have rammed one Neo-con Democrat lite candidate after another down the throats of the party base. Well guess what? The base has finally had enough and are now on a full blown RINO hunt. Many of those precious down ticket seats are at risk right now because the GOP(e) have failed to do what was asked of them.

They forever demanded that they be given control of the House, then the Senate and they would fix all the problems. Instead, they rolled over, dropped their pants and only asked for some prison lube. These morons need to give it up and do what they’ve been demanding of the GOP base. Hold their noses and vote for the Republican nominee.

Thatisall
