Bill Weld plans to use whatever modicum of attention he has as the Libertarian Vice Presidential nominee to attack Donald Trump, according to The Boston Globe.
While Weld insisted he still supports Johnson, he said he is now interested primarily in blocking Trump from winning the presidency and then potentially working with longtime Republican leaders such as Mitt Romney and Haley Barbour to create a new path for the party after the election.
Not that you can blame the guy for ditching Gary Johnson or the assorted hippies and gun nuts he met this summer. Lost causes need to feel good to feel right. And who wants to share blame for peeling a few hundred millennials off of Clinton in Florida or Pennsylvania to pave the road for Trump? Still, Weld must really be digging that new Bob Weir album.
