“The Donald” Not Interested In Independent Candidacy
Billionaire real estate mogul and reality television star Donald Trump is not interested in pursuing the White House as an independent. Should he run, Trump will seek the “Republican” presidential nomination.
“Mr. Trump is a Republican. He is seriously considering a run for the presidency as a Republican,” Trump advisor Sam Nunberg told FITS. “Mr. Trump has broad and wide appeal across the GOP ideological spectrum. He believes in a strong economy through free market solutions, tax cuts, repealing Obamacare on day one, a strong and well-funded military, life, traditional marriage, protecting the Second Amendment and making sure that we keep our commitments toward taking care of veterans and their families.”
Trump fueled speculation that he might seek an alternative potential pathway to the presidency during a visit to early-voting South Carolina this week.
Specifically, he bashed GOP establishment frontrunners Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney in no uncertain terms.
But Trump also ripped the candidates who appeared with him at the 2015 S.C. Tea Party convention in Myrtle Beach, S.C. – an early gauge of conservative support in early-voting South Carolina.
