Hasn't the Republican Party more or less washed their hands of Trump? Would the Republican supporters among you vote for Donald Trump if he ran as an independent?

That is a good question, as many people say we could benefit from a third party, and if he has the support he should have the support whether he runs mainstream or not.

All I can see down the road is Hillary, she is probably hoping Trump will run as a third party candidate

I imagine she is hoping that. What better way to improve her chance of winning in November 2016 than to have conservative voters split over Donald Trump and the Republican Candidate. Always remember that the holy scriptures counsel that one should not put one's hopes in earthly princes (Psalm 146:3 KJV).

The way things are going for Hillary, she will be more concerned with the possibility of serving a term in a federal pen instead of serving as POTUS.

As for Trump, for me it depends on who ultimately wins the Repub nomination. I am a conservative, not a Republican. And, if another lame candidate (meaning moderate & weak) gets the nomination (as Dole, McCain & Romney did), I will see no difference between them and the Demo candidate. A weak, moderate Repub is essentially a lighter version of a Democrat -- and we all see where that has gotten us.

So yes, for the first time i WOULD consider voting for Trump as a 3rd party candidate if another turd should get the Repub nomination.

Here is more food for thought -- at this point we cannot say that the Dems will not also face a 3rd party candidate if one of Hillary's competitors decides to make an independent run. Would be amazing to see a Dem, Repub AND two 3rd partly alternatives (one opposing each major candidate) this time around.

I would like to see a viable (electable) third party but so far that hasnt happened and just splits the vote of whatever major party they are identified with and almost gaurantees the election of the other major party candidate

It would depend on how the college fell. Basically, it would end up depending on who won the popular vote in "big ticket states."

It has always happened this way when tried. The only third party candidate I know of ever winning was Theodore Rooseverlt

Yeah, just because of how the system is set up. I will say that sometimes they will have third parties win local elections.

Trump helps get the US marine out of the Mexican Jail. I like actions that speaks louder than words.

Ship all the "illegals" with their "american" children home and allow them to in-process through proper channels. Hire more workers for this process, thus weeding out the criminal elements. It is like sweeping house. You sweep every corner and pick through the dirt for the gems, treasures, and good stuff you want to keep before throwing it out. Building a wall, hiring more guards, will stop the flow from overwhelming.

Here is the thing with the children unless and until they change it we have birthright citizenship. Therefore; those children ARE Americans. Do I believe it should be changed like I believe the sky is blue, but the fact is it is currently birthright citizenship.

I am curious if that is done (which I am in favor of) will that also lead to others being stripped? Say convicts, ex felons? The ones noone really likes?

I certainly hope not, because I would be one of the very first groups targeted...the dreaded atheist! I'm worse than a cannibalistic serial killer in the eyes of many...I don't merely kill and eat people, I (gasp!!) demand evidence before belief! Oh the humanity!

But not only that, no group would truly be safe except perhaps for white Anglo-Saxon Protestants.

Not if they only applied it to AFTER the law was passed.

It shouldnt be applied at all to any natural born citizen. Even in the case of so called anchor babies it should eb a choice, the parents will be deported and they will lose their children who will remain in the country unless of course they choose to take them then it will revert to the legal process to come back

that is what I was saying if they are already born let that be that and allow the parents the choice, but do not keep allowing children born to illegals to be citizens.
