None of your post rebuts my contention that Trump is NOT telegraphing consideration to run 3rd party.

Trump sues lots of people when his fragile ego is bruised or when he doesn’t want to pay contractors or by Illegal Aliens who weren’t paid properly and sued Trump.

It is how he does business.


We’ve seen how Ted Cruz does business. Hestuff his pockets with hundreds of thousand of dollars from Goldman Sachs and then carries their water on important issues like TPA/TPP, 500% increase in H-1B, etc.

I’ll take the business man. You can have the bought and paid for career politican. Deal?

Trump’s headed toward being the most loved man in American history, or the most hated.

After what has been coming out of te Nor Loch these past couple days, Trump will be able to say whatever he wants and will get elected.

Since 2000, and way before that, has the GOP lied to us? Every election they have promised everything, everytime, everywhere and what have they done?
Oh yes, elect us just one more time and we will fix it. JUST ONE MORE TIME! Thats the same BS they spew every election and what do the sheeple do?

Lowest form of life on earth is a politician.

RE:”None of your post rebuts my contention that Trump is NOT telegraphing consideration to run 3rd party.”

My post rebuts? What rebuts?

I replied to one of your comments and only a specific part of it.

He is FOS on the lawsuit.

“Why do all the Trump supporters rewrite what the man says, normally on FreeRepublic we like to quote “” exactly what the person said and link to it.

Why don’t you link and quote him?

Is it your belief to quote him is not to understand his meaning? He means something other than what he says?”

I have no idea what you’re trying to say. The quote itself is in the linked article.

“He is indicating that he is going to break his pledge, that pledge is required to take part in the primary.”

No he didn’t, and no it’s not.
Do you just make this stuff up?

Donald is for America, not the GOP.

Go Trump.

The OP was on the subject of Trump telegraphing an intention to go 3rd party. I agree, you didn't address that, and I agree, that I pointed out the pledge had two parts, one of which relates to 3rd party effort.

The other part of the pledge was on a separate point, whether Trump would support the nominee, whoever it was. On that part, I said IF he sues, that can be taken as in violation of the "support the nominee, whoever it is" part of the pledge. Do you disagree with that statement? That IF he sues, he is outside the normal political range of disagreement, and into not supporting an eventual nominee, no matter who it is?

-- He is FOS on the lawsuit. --

Of course, as you say, and you are always right. But that doesn't mean he intends to drop out of the GOP primary race.

Repost my text that I said “I am always right” with a link to it

You are making that up.

But Trump is still FOS on the lawsuit.
He has no intention of doing what he said he would do on that,

I was just crediting your wisdom. Of course none of us is always right, but you are not about to admit that your “He is FOS on the lawsuit” is wrong.

Obviously I wont have to admit that since Trump wont file one just as I posted he wont/.

Your logic here is a bit convoluted.

Why would I admit being wrong when I end up being right?

You don't even seem to believe that he will do what he said on this, and you don't care.

Trump is for Trump.

He always has been. His morals, his ethics, his politics are all changeable...and always have been.

Once you wake up to that, you will remember that he has been a life-long democrat, a NYC democrat no less, with all the requisite views.

Why?

So he could make more money. That’s all...and that’s all that is happening now.

OR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
South Carolina Republican Party
(803) 988-8440

Columbia, S.C. – In response to today’s many media inquiries, SCGOP Chairman Matt Moore reaffirmed that the South Carolina Republican Party’s 2016 Presidential Primary filing form includes a party pledge to not run as a third party candidate in November 2016. South Carolina candidates for state and local office must sign a similar pledge.

All candidates must “hereby affirm that I generally believe in and intend to support the nominees and platform of the Republican Party in the November 8, 2016 general election.”

Thus far, four candidates have signed the pledge and filed for South Carolina’s February 20, 2016 Republican Primary (Rubio, Bush, Kasich, Carson). Three more will sign the pledge and file in the next week (Walker, Cruz, Graham).

The filing form can be seen in its entirety here:

I was leaning toward Trump, but when he pulled this little trick I wrote him off. Nobody with any class publicly signs a pledge and then turns around and does exactly what he pledged not to do.

Character matters. He's running against a Clinton woman who thinks that the rules don't apply to her. Apparently Donald does too. I don't want someone like that to be president.

I'll still vote for whoever the GOP nominates, but if it's Trump I'll be holding my nose in the voting booth.
