Former presidential candidate Evan McMullin announced that the group “Principles First” will hold a convention in Charlotte, NC in August that will run concurrently with the Republican National Convention:
Donald Trump is a disgrace to GOP and threat to the country. In August, @StandUpRepublic and @Principles_1st are hosting The Convention on Founding Principles to counter his RNC coronation. Join us to chart a better path for the party and the country. https://t.co/oH0l22XQnn

According to Washington Post, Evan McMullin, who ran for president in 2016 and barely out-polled the category of 'Miscellaneous write-in,' will hold an alternative 'Republican Convention' during the Republican Convention in Charlotte. https://t.co/pamob36quC

Well good luck with all that. And for some reason a lot of people aren’t expecting a very high attendance:

Luckily the true believers can still fit around Bill Kristol’s dinner table, so logistics will be easy. https://t.co/PUfexh8FDn

Never Trumper Republicans, you do realize a convention usually comprises of more than 5 people, right? https://t.co/A7zU4ypLWR

Perfect. Spend money on a party to stroke their own egos during tough economic times. Voters will love it. https://t.co/gvvIjRBrOa

It will be held at the Golden Corral just outside of Richmond, VA because they will only need two booths. https://t.co/mXZaBEkWya
