With even more Super Tuesday wins under his belt, Donald Trump inches that much closer toward the White House. Many Americans are looking into moving to Canada should he become president and even the X-Men were called upon to address the growing issue.

Now, an elite group of billionaires, tech CEOs and anti-Trump Republicans are banning together to figure out how to stop this lunacy. According to the Huffington Post, the Illuminati-like bunch gathered over the weekend for American Enterprise Institute's annual World Forum, which is apparently a secret meeting despite the fact that we know about it.

Among the alleged attendees were Apple CEO Tim Cook, Google co-founder Larry Page, Napster creator and Facebook investor Sean Parker, and Tesla Motors and SpaceX leader Elon Musk all attended. On the political side, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Karl Rove and House Speaker Paul Ryan were all said to be present. Additional people joining in on the fun were billionaire Philip Anschutz, Democratic Rep. John Delaney of Maryland and New York Times publisher Arthur Sulzberger.

"A specter was haunting the World Forum—the specter of Donald Trump," Bill Kristal, editor of the Weekly Standard wrote. "There was much unhappiness about his emergence, a good deal of talk, some of it insightful and thoughtful, about why he's done so well, and many expressions of hope that he would be defeated."

He continued: "The key task now, to once again paraphrase Karl Marx, is less to understand Trump than to stop him. In general, there's a little too much hand-wringing, brow-furrowing, and fatalism out there and not quite enough resolving to save the party from nominating or the country electing someone who simply shouldn't be president."

Well, he has a point.
