And it will be all the more impactful if his defeat is at the hands of Republican primary fuckery.
Nah, he'll just run as a 4th party candidate. Trump Style.

What is it with the GOP and pledges? Why do they always seem to agree to these silly worthless papers. They do it in Congress all the time too, invent stupid pledges that they'll all do whatever.
Very... cult like, almost?

It's not some legally binding contract. If the party does something that Trump believes loses him the nomination, he will run a third party campaign. I don't believe Trump will even come close to winning though (he won't win one primary).

maybe we should have a donald trump OT since you guys like him so much
seriously though, this will lead to a great "nah fuck you guys" moment if (and this is a big if) he loses

This man running is confirming all my doubts that Idiocracy was a documentary sent to us by Mike Judge's children to warn us all of what lies ahead

That's my take on it. Granted, it isn't a legally binding contract but I'm not 100% sure this is the right move for his ego or ability to power play. RNC attack ads will now flow like rain water. I guess this could make a good "fuck you" moment later on but it could also back fire so......*shrug*
Does dude really sign in marker

I can't wait for him to win. It's gonna be good.
I would say that he is closer to the Sons of Liberty.

He partially overwrote part of the pledge, thus nullifying it. Dude is good at this.
American elections have a primary system. This means that, beginning this February, every state will have their own election every couple weeks. Generally speaking, whoever has the most votes in a single state "wins" the state, meaning that they get a certain amount of electoral votes. Candidates who lose repeatedly generally drop out of the race, and their followers support another candidate.
Trump currently leads across the board. If he's very lucky, he'll win most of the state elections and secure himself the Republican nomination. However, because most Republicans dislike Trump, most Republicans will likely rally behind another candidate. As Scott Walker, Marco Rubio, and Ben Carson drop out of the race, their supporters will probably flock to Jeb Bush en masse.

He can say the GOP begged and were so desperate for him to sign. His supporters will follow him regardless.

Uses extra jumbo super-fats only. To compliment his ego
It all makes sense to me now. Trump is a habitual sharpie-sniffer.

Him running third-party is better. Hillary Clinton would probably beat Donald Trump by a slightly wider margin than she would beat Jeb Bush, but Trump going third party would ensure a Clinton presidency.

That would be perfect. "Oh I didn't actually sign the pledge. See, it says "Donald Duck!""

I'm guessing it comes with RNC and FoxNews support. There's a reason why he did this.

Which would mean the RNC putting their support behind Trump which would be insane. I'm not sure the Bush Dynasty would allow that.
