I predicted Trump would still run as a 3rd Party candidate if he didn't win the GOP primary. That thinly veiled COP agreement was specifically created for him. Who cares if Jindal, Christie, Jeb or anyone else signed it when Trump had double digit leads? The GOP were just going to wait it out until Trump faded away. Even at the time he signed it, the GOP were rumored to begin a advertising campaign against him. I figured Trump had to be smart enough to know it was a trap, but he realized like me that if the GOP started to gang up on him, he would come out a hero to voters if he reneged on the signed agreement. The entire GOPbase is rallying the "Fuck The Establishment" theme. Hell, even the Dem base. I'm beginning to think Trump can take down that cunt Hillary.

Me too. :) I think he's dangerous, but this country needs a shakeup. I can't say a Trump Presidency will be better, but it certainly will be different. I think I may vote for him over Hillary just to get that message across.
