could orchestrate a TRUMP 3rd party run thus assuring HRC white house, but now it is the GOP who has to run THIRD PARTY

Which, BTW, proves the GOP is a group of ugly racist assholes.

“I can tell you that over a period of four years, by virtue of the policies that we’d put in place, we’d get the
unemployment rate down to 6 percent, and perhaps a little lower,” Romney says in a Time magazine interview.

either they will go with Bloomberg, he has been at this a tad longer.

Or I am almost willing to bet Nickey Haley or the Governor of New Mexico, Both women, minority, conservative in the mold of the new conservative party, and PoC.

by the way, while we do not have the name for the party, a friend of mine and i spent some time bantering names on facebook and looking at party registration names across. there is one in NY State, so might be the Grand Conservative Party
