Actually, this could be the final step in Romney/Ryan’s plan to deny the electoral votes to both Trump and Hillary......thereby compelling the decision to congress, whereby Ryan will..naturally....become POTUS via the decision made in Congress.
Think about it.....not far-fetched at all. It all adds up.
No third party will even win one state.
I suspect they are just floating all this out there to make a point, but won’t actually do it. They might not endorse Trump, but I’d be shocked if they actually worked for Johnson. We’ll see though, at this point I’ve given up ruling ANYTHING out in 2016.
If they want a civil war on their hands, I guess they could put their country through that, because there are more of us Trump Supporters than them and we WON’T back down...
They had better think long and hard about this move...

If the House chooses the president they have to pick one of the top five candidates by electoral votes. They just can’t pick anyone. Of course one unfaithful elector could vote for Ryan and make him among the top five.
To make a difference though, Johnson would have to win a state that Hillary would otherwise need to get to 270. I can’t imagine him doing that. The most likely states I can see him winning would be New Mexico or Utah, neither of which Hillary would need to get to 270.
