Bill Kristol and the GOP elites are still hurting.
A week ago #NeverTrumper Bill Kristol went on Newsmax TV and announced he was naming his anti-Trump protest party the Renegade Party.
Republican elites want a candidate that is pro-amnesty, pro-Trans Pacific Trade agreement candidate – a principled conservative like John McCain(?)
The voters want Trump.
The elites don’t.
Last week Kristol’s Renegade Party Twitter account was launched.
Only 4,600 people are following the renegades in over a week.
It’s a movement.
On Sunday Bill Kristol announced there would be an independent candidate to take on Donald Trump in the fall election.
Just a heads up over this holiday weekend: There will be an independent candidate–an impressive one, with a strong team and a real chance.

Donald Trump responded to the threats tonight on Twitter.
Bill Kristol has been wrong for 2yrs-an embarrassed loser, but if the GOP can't control their own, then they are not a party. Be tough, R's!

Trump also called out the Republican party.
The Republican Party has to be smart & strong if it wants to win in November. Can't allow lightweights to set up a spoiler Indie candidate!

If dummy Bill Kristol actually does get a spoiler to run as an Independent, say good bye to the Supreme Court!
