“He’s not serious about beating obama because he said that if he doesn’t win the GOP nomination, he will run as an Independent.”

.........why would any smart person who wants to win the GOP nomination say up front that he will back down if he doesn’t win???

HERE’S THE BOTTOM LINE:
IF Trump chooses to run, then the GOP have NO CHOICE but to nominate him, because IF he does run as an independent then the Dems win FOR SURE. Trump is in the catbird seat and he knows it!

Trump’s not going to win anything other than a contest for the worst comb-over. He isn’t now and has never been a conservative. He is whatever he needs to be to achieve whatever goal he has at the moment. His donations have been mainly democratic, Hillary, Rahm Emmanuel, Schumer?

He would be destroyed by his personal life and bankruptcies and the only purpose a run by Trump either as a Republican or 3rd party would have is to give the democrats a sure victory, his biggest democrat donation ever.

It’s not like the nomination will be “awarded” in a backroom deal. Trump or anybody else has to go out and pile up delegates in the primaries.

Guess this would force all of the front-runners to also say they will run 3rd party, if they lose in the Republican primary.

Trump is turning this into a circus.
