Warning shot at Priebus and the other gutless wonders in the GOP-E to not engage in any shenanigans or reneg on their deal.

This is called LEVERAGE. There could be a situation because of the proportional delegate system that Trump wins a majority of the primaries, has the most delegates but not 50%+ and there is a brokered convention where the GOPe tries to get another candidate the nomination.

Trump then has insane LEVERAGE that if the GOPe does that he lights a fire at the convention and burns the whole house to the ground and runs as an independent.

I always thought he was going to play the Ross Perot role.

Not that it matters here in CA, but I will vote Trump in the primary.

So what constitutes being treated unfairly? Like much of what Trump says, there is usually a lack of specifics. He is okay with the GOP as long as he is leading. What if he loses Iowa? Is that unfair? Will he pack up his toys and go home then?

If he wants to run as a Republican then run as a Republican. He could have run as an Independent from the beginning.

If he doesn’t like the way he is treated, too bad. It’s politics. So far he seems to be doing just fine with the Republican voters. It is his job to keep them. It is the job of other candidates to take them. If they gang up on him (Rubio and Jeb with the help of the GOPe string pullers) then he can use his billions to drown them out in ads.

He needs to drop the childish foot stomping and campaign like everyone else. The fact that the GOPe doesn’t like him hasn’t hurt him so far.

Remember Trump supporters who claim they support Ted Cruz as your 2nd choice , that ?

If Trump goes 3rd and as you vote for Trump your vote goes against Ted Cruz and or is nullifying votes for Ted Cruz.

So ?

Since Trump “ may “ go 3rd party ? Any claims that Ted Cruz is your 2nd choice is mute, nullified.

Now is the time of choosing, no more fence sitting.

Also, any claims that anti-Trump rethoric here on FR is some how hurting Ted Cruz is null and void, canceled out if Trump goes 3rd party.

Something to think about, now is the time of choosing.

If Trump goes 3rd Party Hillary Clinton would not believe her wildest dreams if that were to happen.

Trump going 3rd Party will in effect give the presidency to Hillary Clinton.

Now is the time of choosing.

If he does go 3rd Party would there be any doubt that he was a Rat Party plant from the very start....or that the Rats have something on him and “made him an offer he couldn’t refuse”? And please don’t label me some kind of traitor...I agree with much (but not everything) of what he has to say.

Why doesn’t he just declare a 3rd party run and end the suspense, and reserve his seat of honor at Hillary’s inauguration?

Trump signed a Pledge to support the GOP nominee. If he bails then he is saying his
signature isn’t worth the paper it’s written on. He’s not going 3rd party. It’s hype
witch get him tons of free air time on the networks.

I would support him if the RINO’s select anyone but Cruz. With Cruz the nominee I think he’d be wrong going third party.

A total kick but team would be Trump/Cruz.

A Cruz/Trump ticket would be OK if Cruz would let Trump use his mouth run interference with the lefties and RINO’s.

Trump responded that he doesn't want to and it doesn't make sense with him leading by such large margins in the polls,

Notice this wasn't included in the headline.

The GOP is finished. It is widely known that the RNC is trying to bring Trump down. If they succeed, they lose. If they fail, they lose. They brought it on themselves.
