Bill Kristol’s Israel First party unveils their stealth Trump killer, who we are reliably informed is “an independent candidate–an impressive one, with a strong team and a real chance.”
Yeah, so, about that…. it appears Kristol was talking about David French. National Review’s David French. By whom, we mean this sad sap.
Hi-freaking-larious. In an nationalism-driven election, Israel First is going to try to beat the nationalist candidate with a literal cuckservative. No wonder even the #NeverTrump types are completely underwhelmed.

Kristol’s pick! That would be the same David French who defended Kevin Williamson?Byron York Verified account @ByronYork
My sense is much of the commentary isn’t really about David French. More about implausibility of choice after so much hype.David Burge @iowahawkblog
I think David French would be a better prez than Trump/Hillary/Bernie, but then again so would Fat Bearded Libertarian Guy in ThongBen Shapiro Verified account @benshapiro
Trumpsters are going to have a rough time convincing people that it’s somehow David French’s fault if their man doesn’t win.A.J. Delgado @AJDelgado13

DAVID FRENCH FOR PRESIDENT: “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for our wives’ sons.”
“I gather Donald Trump said I’m a loser. I’ve won some and I’ve lost some, but one thing I’ve always tried not to be is a roaring jackass.”
– Bill Kristol
Can’t say that anymore, Billy. Do you hear that sound? That is the ENTIRE INTERNET laughing at you. Even Susan Estrich, the architect of the Dukakis debacle, is shaking her head and wondering what planet you think you’re orbiting.
Anyhow, I think concerns about the potential effects of a third-party candidate on Trump’s prospects can be safely dismissed now.
