Well don't tell Trump that.The greatest “conservative” politician of all time, let him tell you, would never try that. After all, he wiped out 16, the most in all of history, RNC POTUS primary challengers in 2016 and created the Trump party. Traditionally, third party POTUS candidates simply hand the election to the other major political party’s candidate.
If Trump had that much power then he would win the RNC POTUS primary again. Trump can’t get a “third party” social media website off the ground.
Trump is a wildcard here. Just because he would never even come close to winning a third party run and doing so would hand the entire election to Joe Biden wouldn't necessarily stop him from trying. Anyone who thinks they can predict what Donald Trump is going to do hasn't been paying attention. If DeSantis or the GOP pisses him off in some way, (like abandoning him to criminal charges and embracing DeSantis for 2024?) he might just torpedo the entire Republican Party out of spite. Or even out of a delusion that he could still possibly win a grassroots third party run. That no rational person would do this is irrelevant when we're talking about Donald Trump. He isn't motivated by anything other than his own ego.
