On the phone with a former Trump adviser: "I bet if someone offered him $150 million to drop out, he would."

Bill ‘Always Wrong’ Kristol’s grift dream will never die!
You can see how these Republican Intellectuals got pantsed by the likes of Captain Bankruptcy. Never announce your target offer before the start of negotiations, for one thing; Kristol should’ve said his billionaires had a half-billion on the table, before starting the bidding at $25 mill once Trump was in the room.
And, yes, there are lots of jokes by Kristol’s followers about setting up a Kickstarter.
(No Trump-tweets returning fire, yet, though. We know what this means — Bill Kristol just isn’t important enough for Trump’s interns to follow.)
Not that Reince ‘RNC PR BS’ Priebus might not like a different job than the one he’s got now…
Well this is a pretty good exit strategy from the untenably embarrassing and soul crushing job @Reince currently has https://t.co/tWH2r6iy2a

(CNN)Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus has been quietly having conversations with state party leaders to discuss the latest push by convention delegates to nominate anyone other than Donald Trump.
Priebus has spoken with GOP party chairmen in multiple states in recent days in part to get a better sense of how large the anti-Trump faction is among their convention delegations, according to two people familiar with the conversations.
