Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump refused to rule out a third party bid for the presidency in an interview Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.”
Trump has signed, along with other Republicans, a vow to run for the GOP nomination.
But, Trump didn’t discount a third party bid when he was asked on Sunday about efforts to unravel his candidacy by some in the Republican party.
“I’m going to have to see what happens. I will see what happens. I have to be treated fairly,” Trump said. “When I did this, I said I have to be treated fairly. If I’m treated fairly, I’m fine. All I want to do is (have) a level playing field.”
*there are two ways to look at this: he can’t say that he hasn’t been treated unfairly, because no one has seriously criticized him (aside from the usual outlets). Second part is that if Trump ran as an independent, the blowback that would hit ‘Ol Renfield’ would be awesome.
in any event
Side-note: Its amazing that he hasn’t realized that there is no ‘I’ in the word ‘team’.
Side-note: I’m really tempted to put a Bobby Heenan gif that has him saying ‘You have to be fair to Trump.’
nah doesn’t rhyme…
Please, do.
Dear Mr. Trump: If you were to run an independent campaign for POTUS next year, you would win the hearts of nearly every pretty little blonde with a body like your daughter. Wouldn’t that be nice? – Don’t you want that, Mr. The Donald? Think about it – hundreds of thousands of Ivankas dreaming of YOU and masturbating to YOU every single night!
Do it, Mr. The Donald! Do it!
Do it, Donald! Don’t listen to the losers! The Clownshirts are counting upon you!
Mr Trump (note the respect),
I would hold you in much higher esteem than you could have ever attained–
if you would agree to run as an independent.
Your 3rd-party run would have an undeniable positive effect on our political system
in ways you could never achieve running as a ®.

Possibly a fan for life (it’s all up to you sir),
