HIS WORST NIGHTMARE

Trump Slams Independent Candidate Speculation

Went after Bill Kristol for suggesting an independent spoiler will challenge him.

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Sunday night blasted attempts by Weekly Standard Editor Bill Kristol to talk up a third party bid by an independent conservative. Kristol wrote on Twitter that there will be an “impressive” independent candidate on the ballot in November with “a strong team and a real chance.” Trump responded quickly 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!” he tweeted. He also warned of “lightweights” attempting to spoil his bid, and said an independent candidate would mean conservatives can “say good bye to the Supreme Court.”
