It would be huge. Probably in a bad steaming pile kind if way.

I would love to see the “deal” that Trump signed saying he would not go 3rd party. If what he says is true and he is up against ‘stupid” deal makers, that deal should enable him to take over the Republican party or ace them out in a 3rd party bid.

[HarleyLady27]

NOPE!!! If the GOPE or the RINO base want to kick Team Trump out, that’s one thing...but Team Trump is staying where they are and fighting this one out...Trump doesn’t walk away from a fight, and they don’t know just how many supporters Team Trump has...

By now we should all realize that if trump runs third party we get hillary.
We need to light a huge fire under that asses of the GOP-e to makes sure they treat Trump fairly so we don’t get hillary.

[Dr. Sivana]

I don’t WANT this to happen, but if voters can spell “Murkowski”, they can spell “TRUMP”.

[allendale]

How would it work? Say hello to President Hillary Clinton. The Federal power bureaucracy would remain in the destructive grasp of the nihilistic Left.

[aces]

yep, that was the plan between bubba and Trump. hitlerry will will in that scenario..

[b4its2late]

It would mean Obama II via Clinton II.

Trump has been surprisingly stingy so far this cycle. As of the last filing deadline, Trump had only spent about $2 million of his own money -- the other $4 million the campaign spent were donations from supporters.

Why spend any money when you're the subject of every network and cable news show 24/7?

I don’t think Trump will go third party. At this point he’s still in the running for the GOP nomination. If and when he reached a point where it didn’t look like he’d win it then it’ll be too late for a third party run.

[TexasFreeper2009]

This is all BS talk to try to hurt Trump.

Why would Trump run 3rd party when he has a massive and growing lead? that makes no sense.

Some say.. but the GOPe might screw him at the convention!

If the GOPe somehow manages to screw Trump at the convention... it's already to late by then to mount a 3rd party run. The GOP convention isn't until July 18th of 2016. That's WAAAAAAY beyond the cut off’s to get on the ballot running 3rd party.

[TexasCajun]

Everyone's got this all backwards.

Trump is running as a Republican!

Is the GOPe considering drafting Mitt Romney for a 3rd Party GOPe tricket?

[SMARTY]

N O T

[PoloSec]

Why is Trump worried about the GOPe not being nice to him, he is beating them bloody, his agenda for going third party is not at all clear, it all seems somewhat nefarious to me.

[Charles Henrickson]

How would a Trump independent bid work?

[The Sons of Liberty]

How would a Trump independent bid work?

I think the GOP-e would do EVERYTHING, legal and illegal, in every state to prevent his name from getting on the ballot.

[Mister Da]

As things are going now, I think the convention delegates will shout down the GOPe & nominate Trump by acclamation. Nothing would please me more than seeing Rove, Prebus, & all their cronies then escorted out of the convention. Wave Buh-bye.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Talking about something that is not going to happen.
