    Maybe the RNC will find an excuse to prevent him from getting the nomination. Maybe they won't. Either way I think Trump has pretty much ensured that the Republicans will not take the White House in 2016. He seems determined to stay the course and as a registered Democrat I can only applaud him for it.

      He'll run independent. He hasn't ruled (lol) it out. It's like half the country thinks this is the bachelor.

        I thought he effectively pledged that if he didn't get the RNC nomination that he'd run independently anyway. That should split the GOP vote nicely.

          trump in my mind seems to conjure these weird @Beyonce illuminati conspiracy theory public service announcements with comb over baldies...he's totally going to win.

          Every state has different rules for getting an independent on the ballot, and (more importantly), different deadlines. If he waits until the RNC to run independently, it'll be too late to get on some ballots. I don't know if it'll make it impossible to win, but it will hurt him a lot.

        It's like when Megyn Kelly asked Trump at the GOP debate, "When did you actually become a Republican?" and he just shrugs.
