Author Brad Thor, a frequent critic of President Donald Trump, took to Twitter today to issue a challenge for 2020, vowing that if no conservative candidate ran against Trump, he would “absolutely challenge” him for the Republican presidential nomination.
“America deserves better leadership,” Thor tweeted.
If no conservative steps up, I will absolutely challenge Donald Trump in 2020. America deserves better leadership. pic.twitter.com/xwNG8LZs8c

A few minutes later, Thor tweeted that he was indeed serious. “Let’s make it official. I’m in.”
In fact, let's make it official. I'm in. https://t.co/Rd1gh4Atm3

Thor’s announcement was met with curiosity and support from a number of other conservatives on Twitter.
I’d vote for @BradThor for President

RedState reached out to Thor for comment. “America deserves good, solid, stable leadership,” said Thor. “America deserves to be able to tend to their farms, their businesses, and their families without wondering what their President will do next. America needs to know that while they are looking out for their own interests, someone is looking out for them.”
Heads up @realDonaldTrump. The era of know-nothing, insult-comedy politics is over. Leadership, stability, and intelligence are on the way back. #Thor2020 pic.twitter.com/ql81eyGR19
