If Trump loses the Republican nomination will he run as a third party?

[Rick345]

Let’s say Trump fails to win the Republican nomination. Because of his ever mounting legal woes the Republican Committee decides Trump isn’t an option, do you think he’d run as a third party candidate?

That would mean an easy win for Biden, maybe the only way he could win, but despite that will Trump run as a third party candidate? Or will has truly faithful force him to run ad a third party candidate?

I don't see how the Republicans could possibly control the monster they've created. If Trump decides to run as an indie, he will.

Just curious - why is your 3rd party scenario the only way you believe Biden can win?

Donald Trump has been saying that he’ll run for president as a Republican, which is surprising, since I just assumed he was running as a joke.

I don't think it's the only way, remember I said it maybe the only way he could win, I never said it was the only way he could win. Biden could but it is the only sure way he can win.. If Biden runs against anyone there is always a chance he can lose. That's the way politics works, someone wins, someone loses. However, that has nothing to do with my question..

Let me simplify my question, if Trump is not nominated what are the odds he'll run anyhow? Why would he run?

That was 2015, this 2023...

I am more in the camp of what YDB95 has stated with the added opinion that trump MUST run and run in any political party that will take him. It's my belief that he keenly understands gaining the presidency is the only way to prevent him facing criminal repercussions.

100%, because he thinks it's a literal get out of jail free card.

Well he IS that stupid.

In our textbook of political science, it is said that only rich person can win the election in the West, because they are the representative of big capitalists of the country. So whether Trump is a Republican or a Communist, as long as he is still wealthy, he is likely to win. What's more, considering he has a much bigger fan base in China and other parts of the world, we will be delighted to see him to serve again as a American president friendly (on the surface at least) to China and the world.

Mr. Trump, He did not start any military war on any other country but he did not win the Nobel Prize for Peace, contrary to the Democratic Obama, who had ordered the US soldiers to have wars with a number of countries and kill many civilians in Afghanistan. And this current president Joe, you haven't paid any formal visit to China as the head of a country, do you think you still have time to do so within the remaining hours in the White House, what kind of impression do you want to leave on American and Chinese peoples with this inaction? You are old, that is true, but Kissinger is much older than you, you are just a baby before him, he could visit China personally and why could you not?

Why would Joe visit a Terrorist/Oppressive state that's actively aiding two other Terrorist/Oppressive states and threatening to invade a sovereign island state?

 

[JoePepsiCo]

Trump don't run third or he doesn't run at all.

He'll run as "THE" Party. And it will be bigger. It will be better. You'll get sick of all the winning!

So much winning...,

Same reason Kamala would.

They'll need cheap oil at election time...

There are no Republicans any more. The GOP is gone, eaten alive by the GQP. OrangeBoi owns the TangGang and will anointed the nod regardless of primaries, courts or anything else.

The only question is what the voters will do next year.

I am interested in which prison he will put his gold toilet in.

Why would trump win in a battle of two rich people?

You mean the guy who started a friendly trade war with China? Don’t forget that people all over the world were literally dancing in the streets when trump lost to Biden.

Mr. Trump, He did not start any military war on any other country but he did not win the Nobel Prize for Peace, contrary to the Democratic Obama, who had ordered the US soldiers to have wars with a number of countries and kill many civilians in Afghanistan.

You need to do some googling.

What’s your point?

He probably has the GOP nomination locked in. It's the other stuff he should be concerned about. Funny thing is, even if that goes as it seems to be going, his base will still love it. So time will tell.

 

[KeithD]

I do hope that Trump will either get the Republican nomination, or, barring that, take a third-party run at it. He's a certified loser on the national level.

 

[Chernosoth]

The Pubs and the Dems are in similar situations with probably needing new candidates next year, so they may have started preparing months ago. Trump's support may vanish next spring after some big primaries, far too late to start a third party run.

I am not sure what's with nominating people with one foot in the grave.

 

[Dribble]

Not sure what reality people live in. He will solidly win the nomination. He will solidly beat Biden as it stands today. What is going to change these outcomes in the new year?

Democrats solution...throw their weight behind an old man that cares so little about those around him that he allowed his 2 dogs to have over 30 total biting attacks. Yep...that's a leader there...

A different reality than you are living in, yes. Trump is multidimensional scan artist, criminal, and coupist. I have no doubt that most voters on the national level will understand that that is just too far and won't vote for him and the sleaze he represents.

Yes, I think Biden is too old to hang on to the office, but he's doing a good job in my mind and there's no other path being offered. So, Biden it is for as long as he can hang on--then whoever is behind him, whether it's Harris of not, is, along with Democratic control, miles better than the Republicans can manage in the near future.

While he is the front runner at the moment the nomination process doesn't happen for another week.. Trump, has raised the most money and in any other election that would be more than enough for him to win the republican nomination, but Trump has liabilities for the republican party which DeSantis, Haley, and Ramaswamy do not..

Trump can still lose, you are putting the horse before the cart.

Could he beat Biden maybe, but all Biden will have to do is play back political ads of some of the crazy ass thing Trump said in office and crazy shit he is still saying.. I think that would be enough for Biden to win..

Biden, will have far greater problems beating DeSantis, Haley, or, Ramaswamy, Biden never fulfilled his campaign promises and his time in office has been lackluster and that is being kind..
