If #NeverTrump was on a stretcher, its doctor would be saying "call it" and looking up at the clock right about now. When Cruz left the race it seemed like the movement might have legs, but whatever life it once held has been steadily bleeding out ever since. As Trump gets stronger (and polls better) the odds that #NeverTrumpers could achieve their goals have all but collapsed.
Now, one of #NeverTrump's top dogs is wandering away from the effort. Mitt Romney - a man who knows a thing or two about suspending campaigns - has decided it's time to abandon his search for an independent third-party conservative.
