George Will leaves the GOP over Trump


WASHINGTON – Conservative columnist George Will has left the Republican
Party, and he is urging others to make sure the GOP’s presumptive
nominee, Donald Trump, doesn’t win.

“Make sure he loses,’’ Will told PJ Media, an online news company, in an
interview Friday. “Grit their teeth for four years and win the White House.”

Will, a long-time columnist and commentator, spoke Friday at the
Federalist Society luncheon. “This is not my party,’’ he said during the
speech.

According to PJ Media, Will said he has changed his GOP registration in
Maryland to “unaffiliated.’’

Will, a Pulitzer-Prize winning columnist, has long been critical of
Trump. The Washington Post columnist warned in a column in April that
Trump’s damage to the party had only just begun.

Trump, he said, would be the “most unpopular nominee ever’’ and unable
to get support from women, minorities and young voters.

In a column earlier this week, Will urged Republican donors not to
contribute to Trump's campaign.

Trump, in turn, called Will a “major loser’’ last month on MSNBC’s
Morning Joe.

Apparently Will cannot tolerate Trump's ethnonationalistic
proto-fascism. But several of the fellas in .wrecked.bloats think he is
just fine.
