Trump: I’m Not Prepared to Close the Door on a Third Party Run

On Sunday’s “Meet the Press,” GOP presidential hopeful Donald Trump told NBC’s Chuck Todd that he wants to run as a Republican, but when pressed by Todd to completely rule out running as a third party candidate, Trump said he was “not prepared to close that door yet.”

“I’m not prepared to close that door yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some day in the not too distant future it happens,” he explained. “They’re treating me very well. I just want to be treated fairly. And I’m a person that believes in leverage.”
