Trump threatens to run 3rd party if the Repubs don't "treat him right!"

[MoonRiver]

And we all, including the Pukes, know treating him right means giving him the nomination. Whatever the outcome of this little Repuke drama, we Dems will win, big time!

1. The trap was sprung...

the moment the RNC had him sign a loyalty pledge.

[MoonRiver]

3. Yeah, gotta love this madness!

[sharp_stick]

5. I can't believe the RNC

was stupid enough to believe this rank grifter would actually stand by a loyalty pledge. When a serial liar and ripoff artist is willing to do something you can't possibly think he's going to stand by it.

I really hope he goes through with either winning the nomination or running third party, either will be the end of the modern Republican party.

2. Please proceed, Donald.

4. Haha!

One can only HOPE!

6. The Kraken has been unleashed.

He won't go away quietly.

[MoonRiver]

7. That one's hubris has no end point!

[sufrommich]

8. The ego that ate the republican party.

[MoonRiver]

11. Amazing, isn't it!

[Yorktown]

9. pff, he's just playing to his base who will lap it up

Trump's base like him for being a 'maverick' out of the cosy beltway club.

So he's adding fuel to that image look, I'm defying the RNC.

The guy is good at theatrics, even if he does overplay his part a bit.

Show business.

13. Seems to me a lot of people are just voting for

whoever they perceive to be the most anti-establishment and that is about the only criteria they have. They don't seem to be any good at evaluating whether or not the anti-establishment candidate will do any good for them... whether or not that anti-establishment candidate has the skills to get the job done.

16. anti-establishment + seal the border (mexicans+refugees)

Rinse & repeat

[flamingdem]

10. Go Donald?

I agree but the downside is the rest of the world will see us as a trash dump and Isis will get recruiting fodder. Still, leveling the repukes might be the best thing for humanity long term.

[MoonRiver]

12. Not happy about those other consequences,

but there's nothing we can do to stop this Repuke generated runaway train. At the end, we will win the presidency, and hopefully heal a lot of the bad publicity from these lunatics.

14. The Bull Elephant Party? nt

[hedda_foil]

15. More like the Bull Mastodon Party.

17. Newsflash, Trump! You're not entitled to a nomination. :roll: n/t
