Remember that the republican Establishment did this before, in 1980 with John Anderson.

It was laughable. Reagan still won 44 states, and swept the senate into republican control for the first time since 1954 and significantly increased the republican numbers in the House.

Willard won’t draw flies. His support would come from guilty Democrats who wish they would have voted for in in 2012.

It’s not going to happen. Once their fevers subside, they’ll realize how delusional they were.

First, the Republican Party made Donald Trump sign an oath of loyalty by pledging to support its eventual presidential nominee and not run as a third-party candidate.
Now, the establishment GOP may be planning to do the very thing it made Trump promise not to do: bolt from the Republican party and run a third-party campaign.

This is where I get pist at Trump. I said at the time that when he was asked to sign "The Pledge", he should have counter-offered that he would sign when the GOP-E signed one pledging they wouldn't run Third Party against him if he won the nomination. They would have lied of course, but he would have had them by the short hairs.

Trump has this but I’m still not sure if he wants this.I really thought he was there to push his ideal candidate Cruz.He’s crazy or bored if he wants to be president.
