Trump is your spoiler

[greenego]

Could be just to keep his name in the news. If he really wants Obama defeated, he won't run.

Well, as for the Libertarian Party, it's not his choice anyway. It will pick its candidate at its own convention in May. Probably Gary Johnson at this point, but that's not set in stone either.

When and If, and that is a big If....... The Donald will probably only pull single digit percentage of the primary vote!

3rd parties and independents are not involved in primaries in TN (or any other state AFAIK).

Primaries are Rep or Dem only, and you can only vote in one or the other. This is the only thing that makes you a "registered" Dem or Rep in TN, whichever was your last choice in a primary.

Some parties don't even select their candidates till after Super Tuesday, such as Libertarian Party.

Seems doubtful that Trump would spend much of his own money on politicking. Hopefully he wouldn't be successful conning many people into giving him enough money to run. OTOH P.T. Barnum was overall correct about the birthrate of suckers.

If he was nutty enough to spend his own money and try to start a party (ala Ross Perot's Reform Party), maybe an obvious name would be the You're Fired party? Or the Thinking Big party?
