re: Why won't Trump use his sway to build a viable 3rd Party?

Why would he? He has all of the Republicans lining up to kiss his arse. He is only running so he can possibly win and either pardon himself and/or call off the other trials. His rhetoric has led the GOP to firmly believe that the only way he can lose is if the elections are stolen or rigged. Repeat a lie often enough and it will morph into the truth in some people's minds.

What is the tell in all of this? Check how the donations are being spent, it is going to his lawyers.
