George Will leaves the GOP over Trump June 25, 2016 12:31 pm RL

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

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

Trump, in turn, has called Will a “major loser.’’

Will is part of the #nevertrump effort.

Now where will the GOP go when they need words with more than 2 syllables?
