Don't get upset because your conditional doesn't always obtain, which is, after all, all that is being pointed out.

Sloppy thinking is sloppy thinking.

And the importance (electorally speaking) of the phrase ‘no longer’.

71% of 30% is not a formula for victory.

A third party candidate from, say, the Green Party helps Trump.
If the GOP were to grow some integrity and somehow not nominate Trump, Trump runs as a 3rd party and blows up the GOP.

The former is more likely than the latter. We are doomed,

I don't think so. Anti-Trumpers of all stripes are aware of that danger and even No Labels has promised not to run a candidate if it looks to help Trump.

Agreed. As a sign of how serious not putting Trump back in is, even Ralph Nader is warning against a third party candidacy.

I would LOVE to see Trump run as a third party candidate.

It's frightening to imagine another Trump POTUS. Vendetta, chaos, further demolition of institutions, more baddies operating in the open...

Are there any candidates right now, or is it too early?

As of now I'll definitely be voting for him. Not that my vote really matters to anyone but myself.
