Trump has made it clear all along that if there was fair play, he would not run third party. Just for starters, not stopping some of the Cruz shenanigans IS NOT "playing fair". Making no attempt to rein in Ryan or Romney IS NOT "playing fair". Talk of changing the rules, which were regarded as solid when they were part of Jeb's strategy IS NOT "playing fair".

If the nomination is stolen from Trump, and factoring in that the Dem rules are such that Sanders lost before the first primary vote was cast, we need a third party run. If it's one that is established in each state and if Trump chooses his VP wisely (Perot didn't) I'd think he'll earn a plurality in enough states to succeed.

Trump has dished it out as good as he got. He is a nasty, spiteful piece of work. For the others, it seems to be just politics. But he will hold grudges his whole life and spend a lot of time retaliating, rather than putting the past behind him.

Respectfully, may I ask why you think Perot didn’t choose wisely?

The gopE superpacs spending millions IN THE PRIMARY to defeat Trump is not fair either.

As for third party, can he get on the ballot in every state?

As for the sore loser law, I don’t think that would stand up in court if challenged.
