RNC rebukes Bill Kristol on anti-Trump efforts

• http://www.politico.com

Conservative pundit Bill Kristol is pushing for a third-party challenge to Republican front-runner Donald Trump.

The Republican National Committee wants him to cut it out.

The New York Times reported Saturday on efforts by Kristol, the editor of The Weekly Standard, as well as others, to recruit former Oklahoma Sen. Tom Coburn and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry to mount a challenge to Trump in the general election. RNC spokesman Sean Spicer told Breitbart News on Sunday that "any effort to facilitate a third party ultimately is helping to elect Hillary Clinton," adding that the "Republican Party must be united to take back the White House."

On Sunday, Kristol tweeted his observations from RNC Chairman Reince Priebus' interview on ABC's "This Week," during which Priebus affirmed that the process would play itself out and said that, while it's highly unlikely, he could not rule out the possibility that the Republican nominee would not be someone who is currently running.
