President Trump Has a 2020 GOP Challenger

Bill Weld, the 2016 Libertarian Vice-Presidential candidate, has declared that he will run as a Republican in the 2020 primary. Fox News reports:

BEDFORD, N.H. — Former Massachusetts GOP Gov. Bill Weld has launched a committee to explore a Republican primary challenge against President Trump.

Weld formally made the announcement Friday at “Politics and Eggs,” a must stop in the first-in-the-nation primary state of New Hampshire for any White House hopeful.

“I am establishing an exploratory committee to pursue the possibility of my running for the presidency of the United States as a Republican in the 2020 election. I encourage those of you who are watching the current administration nervously but saying nothing to stand up and speak out,” Weld declared to the audience and a large gathering of local and national reporters.

Fox News reported on Wednesday that Weld, a very vocal Trump critic, would likely announce at “Politics and Eggs” that he was taking a step toward launching a longshot bid to unseat the president. The event kicked off a two-day swing by Weld through the state, meeting with GOP activists and former leaders.

Weld will find it hard to win against President Trump, as he is regarded as a very left-wing Republican even in the pre-Trump era.

Weld, as a President, would be a dream come true to promote any or all international relations which Trump believes are not fair to the U.S.A. Yes, there are Republicans like Weld, a mediocre former MA Governor. Weld would be as effective as Romney, and both are summed-up with an old military evaluation; “they do not pack the gear” for the U.S. presidency. However, the “deep state” would breathe a sigh of relief, both Weld and Romney can be manipulated by the covert beings who could manipulate them. That, such secretive forces can’t do with Trump, he has never been a “Deep State” politico masquerading as all for the middle-class, when in fact, these two fake Republicans, Weld or Romney, would leave the middle class floundering like a dying fish out of water.

Weld I would not vote for you for nothing. You should not be going against Him. You are the problem with some of you republicans who never stood with Trump even though you didn’t want Him to win because you didn’t like Him. You hurt Him and your party. You pist off us. We are the ones who voted you in. We can vote you out. Start working for the people and help OUR President because we want you too. We elected you. Damn it all Weld DON’T DO IT RHINO.

Bill Weld will get donation money to support his campaign. The primary contest will assure President Trump good national exposure.

I will always vote for President Trump as long as he is running. He has done such a good job since he is in office that the other Presidents could not accomplish in the same time. Good Job President Trump !!!!

Why is he wanting to run? Because he wants to fill his bank account with left over campaign donation money. He knows he can not win. It is always about the money. People who donate have to be lost souls.
