Trump Signaling He Will Forgo a Third-Party Bid

Donald Trump “has told several top Republicans that he will swear off the possibility of an independent bid and commit to running his presidential campaign under the party’s banner,” the Huffington Post reports.

“Such a move could endear Trump further to Republican voters who have remained skeptical about his allegiance to a political party he joined relatively recently. Trump had drawn sharp criticism from GOP leaders concerned that a third party bid would effectively guarantee a Democratic win in the general election.”
