Technically, Trump would be running as a second party candidate.

The fix is in in Ohio. A RepublicRAT regardless of who wins.

Okay, I did some research. This law applies to someone who doesn’t win their primary in a particular party election, and then wants to run as an independent in the general election. So, technically, if Trump doesn’t win the votes to be the nominee in the R party, he could run as a write in, because he wasn’t up against one other opponent in the other party. Say, for instance, Trump doesn’t win the early voting in states, and Bush emerges as the nominee (God forbid) then Trump could run as an independent.
