Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, in a Wall Street Journal op-ed, says Republican presidential candidates with no hope of winning the party's nomination next year should drop out of the race by Feb. 26 to stop Donald Trump from becoming the nominee.
In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, the Utah senator says Republican megadonors can prevent Trump from winning the GOP nomination next year.
“There are incentives for no-hope candidates to overstay their prospects. Coming in behind first place may grease another run in four years or have market value of its own: Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum got paying gigs. And as former New Hampshire Gov. John H. Sununu has observed, ‘It is fun running for president if you know you cannot win,’” Romney wrote.
“Left to their own inclinations, expect several of the contenders to stay in the race for a long time. They will split the non-Trump vote, giving him the prize,” Romney wrote.
