evilweasel posted:Taking over the libertarian party, or another third party with 50-state ballot access, is his only reasonable shot if he's ratfucked by surprise since he wouldn't be able to get ballot access. And libertarians are children who will be easily swept aside or join the Trumpenreich, he would have no trouble whatsoever pulling it off. there are a lot of legal questions surrounding sore loser laws, it's certainly not a for sure thing that Trump couldn't get ballot access in those states.

Trump events schedule now updated for Friday and later events - still no debate. If he shows up this would be the first time he has not placed it on his official calendar this late and still showed.

Also remember that out of the 200+ unbounded delegates going to the convention there'll be a group that supports Trump if he goes in the delegate leader, either because they're voting with the popular vote or because they actually support him. It may only be 20-40 delegates but if the race is razor thin don't assume that 100% of them will vote not Trump. Whoops looks like it's 100+ not 200+, point still stands though.

The Republican convention is in late July. He would have to start getting ballot access well before he knew if they'd dared to ratfuck him. Maybe they'd make it clear they would and they had the votes - but although they're idiots they will probably clue into the fact it's best to wait to ratfuck him until its hard for him to run third party. I think some of the massive states that he can't win without are in May (like Texas).

General sidenote from a brief eyeball at the huffington post pollster averages. Polls from last night were pretty accurate. Oklahoma was the aberration on both sides. What small polling of Arkansas was done ended up being quite accurate. Virginia on the republican side is interesting because you feel like "Donald Trump wildly underperformed" In reality, he was about 3% below his polls. Nothing outside the realm of possibility when you have all of ~3 relevant polls, and, honestly, not even particularly surprising. Marco Rubio surged and actually ended up overperforming in that state, but it wasn't really at the expense of Trump's voters. Vermont was weird I guess, but I imagine polling republicans in Vermont is a nightmare.

Sore loser laws for the Presidency would almost certainly be shot down as unconstitutional if challenged. The notion of "you ran in a primary and didn't make it, therefore nobody is allowed to vote for you" doesn't seem like something that would hold up in court all that well.

If they ratfuck him and it's too late for him to run third party himself, I wouldn't put it past him to push his supporters to vote Democratic (for a Clinton/Trump ticket?); and enough of them would do it to guarantee a blue electoral map in November.

After last night (not my fault RCP's calculator is off) Predictions for now - March 14th. Rubios support starts falling.  Rubio, Carson, Kasich drop out on March 16th. I don't see Cruz getting nearly enough states to really compete.

Trump isn't going to get 52% of delegates. He'll get close, but Cruz/Rubio/Kasich in Ohio will take over 48%. It'll go to the convention, where the GOP will carry out the ultimate, unprecedented, murder-in-daylight ratfuck in plain sight, pulling out every trick to give the nomination to Rubio. Trump will run 3rd party, taking a lot more of the Cruzites than the GOP expected. Jesse Ventura will, as announced, run when Bernie Sanders loses the Dem primary. Michael Bloomberg will run when he sees an opportunity in the chaos of the race. Trump, Rubio, Clinton, Ventura, and Bloomberg will all stay short of 270 electoral votes. The vote will go to the house, which will be deadlocked between the Democrats supporting Hillary and the Republicans split between Rubio and Trump. America will have no President
