Donald Trump Staff in Talks With Financiers, Campaign Managers to Explore Third Party Bid



ABC News’ Huma Khan and Jennifer Wlach report:

Donald Trump’s top political adviser told ABC News he’s speaking to “high-level political operatives” to explore a third-party presidential bid on behalf of the real estate mogul, in a sign that Trump may not quite be done with the 2012 presidential race just yet.

“I can confirm that over the past two weeks I have spoken with many high-level political operatives, campaign managers, finance directors — some of whom I have spoken to in the past. Most are new people from all over the country,” said Michael Cohen, executive vice president at the Trump Organization and special counsel to the reality-TV star.

“Until the time Mr. Trump decides to either endorse a candidate or run himself, I am exploring on his behalf the possibilities of ensuring Mr. Trump appears on the ballot in all states, and to develop a team of professionals who could ensure a potential victory,” Cohen added.

I've considered this scenario for quite a while. I have always liked what he has stated. I don't know how it would effect the outcome of the election, but it might be interesting to find out. I think an Obama/Romney race will be a no-brainer, with Obama winning in a landslide. If Trump can glean some Republican and Democratic votes, and get many of the Independent vote, might make for an interesting race .
