And he has the $$$ to launch a 3rd Party campaign - he's already flirted with the Reform Party.
".....The Reform Party's presidential candidate for the 2000 election was due federal matching funds of $12.5 million, based on Perot's 8% showing in 1996. Early on, there was a failed effort to draft Ron Paul.
Donald Trump entered the race briefly, giving television interviews outlining his platform. Trump was progressive on social issues, and supported allowing openly gay soldiers in the military, saying: "it would not disturb me." Trump considered himself a conservative, but criticized Pat Buchanan, saying: "I'm on the conservative side, but Buchanan is Attila the Hun." He withdrew from the race citing the party's infighting, as did Jesse Ventura and the Minnesota Reform Party.".....
I remember that.
I remember Trump giving an interview at that time, espousing socially liberal views, and thanking God he wasn’t going to be President.
He said he will not run third party and with all the support he is getting, he won’t have to.
