Trump threatens third party run

[Electric Monk]

(paraphrased from memory)

"Don't rule out the possibility. If they (GOP) don't treat me with enough respect, all options are on the table."

in an interview with Don Lemon, just now on CNN.

1. I rest my case

I called it a long time ago, he and Bill are geniuses.

Understand there is nothing noble about what the prick is doing.

The teaparty threatens the very existence of all life on the planet, not to mention the capitalist system we have here.

Even if Bernie throws a huge monkey wrench into the whole thing by winning the nom and winning the WH, he will still maintain most capitalist systems mostly because the other party will force it on him.

But if the idiots take full control, they will crash the whole thing. A dollar will only have value to wipe away tears or fecal matter and nothing else.

2. Sippy Cupp also said she thinks a third party run by Trump would be good for the GOP in the long run

"I'm ready to excise the diseased limb from the rest of the body to save the body. He's threatening down ballot races at this point."

4. Ah yes, Sippy Cupp, the voice of reason

3. I think he's too lazy to do the work to get on the ballot and set up an

organization, but have my popcorn ready just in case....
