If neither is the top of the ticket after the convention, I’d like them both to run united as a 3rd party ticket. I’d wager in that scenario, the GOPe ticket would finish an ugly third place.
“Id like them both to run united as a 3rd party ticket. Id wager in that scenario, the GOPe ticket would finish an ugly third place.”
And Hillary would win in a rout.
And Hillary would finish first. 3rd party, either by Ben Sasse if Trump gets the nomination, or by Trump if someone else gets the nomination, can stop the GOPe ticket from winning, but Hillary will still get her 45%.
I heard Trump on the Hannity show yesterday say that splitting the vote would only elect Hillary and ruin this country for 30 years or more. (of course, a couple of minutes later he and Hannity both said that if he had the nomination "stolen" from him, they would not vote Republican - which of course would result in the same disaster than he had just predicted if GOP insiders didn't support him).
